Questions about Crabtree
Can you work at a site such as Brook Farm Business Park, by Crabtree?
Yes. We cover Crabtree and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Brook Farm Business Park. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can the sealant on our Crabtree premises match the finishes?
Yes, sealants come in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references, cladding, stone or frames is a common request. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
What will the job cost?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll price it properly.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for 12 months. If our installation fails in that time, we return and fix it.
How long does a typical visit take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work usually takes about the same time as any other sealant work, plus a little longer if a sample bead is agreed first. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Coloured sealant in Crabtree
We can agree a short trial length before the full run. Cured sealant may look a shade different from the wet bead, and lighting changes it again. Let us know who signs off colour, and we will fit the sample into the programme. We work on powder-coated and anodised frames, hotel bathrooms and public areas and shop-fit joinery and counters, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded and white or grey sealant that clashes with the finish. Most enquiries from Crabtree start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Business units in the countryside around places like Crabtree are often converted barns, stables or farmyards. Their mix of old walls with new frames, partitions and floors means many joints between unlike materials, and a sealant colour that suits the building’s character is often part of the brief.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Places near Crabtree

Shops, offices and hotels in and around Crabtree
The 3 miles around Crabtree take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Units on sites like these change tenants and get refitted, and each refit leaves joints to seal; brand colours often come into it. Crabtree is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External joints still need dry faces and the right temperature, and damp or frosty mornings can hold work up.
If you run an office at a site such as Brook Farm Business Park, 1.4 miles south-west of Crabtree, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out. Refits at hotels like South Lodge Hotel, less than half a mile to the north-west of Crabtree, bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day.
Crabtree is about 5 miles south-east of Horsham, in West Sussex. Across the RH13 postcode area, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Across West Sussex, 373 places are covered, Crabtree among them. Brighton is covered too, some 14 miles away.
We cover the RH13 postcode districts for colour-matched joints. Among the streets we cover are Mill Lane, Peppersgate and Long Hill, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. We also cover Lower Beeding (1 mile north), Colwood (1 mile south-east), Monk's Gate (2 miles north-west), Plummers Plain (2 miles north-east) and Mannings Heath (2 miles north-west) for colour-matched joints. Bigger towns within reach include Crawley (7 miles north-east), Horsham (5 miles north-west), Worthing (14 miles south-west), Haywards Heath (7 miles east), Burgess Hill (7 miles south-east) and East Grinstead (13 miles north-east).

What we are called out for in Crabtree
Exposure takes its toll on colour. UV, grime and weathering alter how a bead looks after a few years. A reseal brings the colour back in line.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Previous reseals that don’t match the original
- Dirty, discoloured joints in public areas
- Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
- White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
If you have premises on more than one site, say at Brook Farm Business Park and Oakendene Industrial Estate, one contractor and one quote can cover both.
What your quote should include
- Their public liability cover
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- How they’ll work around occupants
How the job changes by surface
Office fit-outs
Office joinery and frames usually follow a colour scheme. We match from the product’s range and agree them before work starts.
Cladding panels
Multi-coloured cladding needs a joint colour that works across it. A neutral tone from the range often works best and we can trial it first.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
- Restoring stained stone or masonry next to old sealant
- Preventing all fading from sunlight and weathering
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
