Doing it in-house
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
About our coloured sealant in Cross End
Stone, brick and cladding each bring their own colour challenge: a stone or brick facade shifts in tone from one area to the next. We choose a colour that reads well across the surface rather than chasing one spot. If you have discoloured joints on a visible elevation and a run of joints in mismatched shades, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Cross End start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Commercial sealant work around smaller places like Cross End tends to mean pubs and restaurants, halls, farm shops and offices in converted farm buildings. Kitchens, toilets and window frames in all of them need resealing sooner or later.
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 are upfront about that.

Quoting for work in Cross End
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The size and state of each joint
- The total length or number of joints
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
A quote for colour-matched joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you’re working to. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The site address and postcode
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.
Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Smaller jobs around Cross End can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- Where colour is critical, a sample bead can be agreed in a discreet spot.
- We remove the existing bead, clean the faces and set the depth.
- The coloured sealant is applied and tooled with clean, masked edges.
What we need from you
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Keeping the joints sound
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Protect fresh coloured sealant from dust and handling
- Note which sealant colour was used where
- Agree the sealant colour early and write it into the specification
- Ask contractors to check the colour before resealing
Check visible joints during routine inspections. Watch for cracks, peeling or discolouration and deal with problems early.
Standardise the sealant colour on multi-site work. Consistency makes future work simpler and easier to manage.
Cross End: questions and answers
Is Cross End too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Cross End?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
How long before the joints can be used?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. The 12-month guarantee covers our preparation and application, though not damage or work by other trades.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, with some planning. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Custom-mixed sealant colours
- Cleaning or repairing the surrounding finishes
- Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Office fit-out finishes
- Cladding panels
