Coloured sealant for Dunn Street sites

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Common problems we fix in Dunn Street

Mould and staining discolour coloured joints in some areas. Mould that has rooted into a bead rarely cleans out, so the joint is replaced.

Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:

  • Smeared sealant on stone or joinery
  • Old colour-matched joints lifting at the edges
  • Hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme
  • White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish

Units at retail parks like Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre, 1.1 miles to the north of Dunn Street, change hands and get refitted, with new joints at every frontage.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

About our coloured sealant in Dunn Street

Where colour is critical, a sample bead in a discreet spot settles the question. Sealant can look slightly different once it has cured, and again in different light, so approving a sample on site is worth doing. Tell us who needs to approve the colour and we’ll plan for it. If you are dealing with hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme and previous reseals that don’t match the original, we can help, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Dunn Street tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Business units in the countryside around places like Dunn Street are often converted barns, stables or farmyards. Old masonry beside new aluminium, timber and plasterboard gives plenty of joints between materials that move differently, and a sealant colour that suits the building’s character is often part of the brief.

We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

When to bring in a specialist

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

Frontages, fit-outs and joints in Dunn Street

Dunn Street has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Units on sites like these change tenants and get refitted, and each refit leaves joints to seal. Dunn Street lies roughly 31 miles out from central London. The commuter belt holds a great many offices, retail parks and business parks. Firms with branches across the South East can use one contractor for every site.

A business with units at Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre and Lordswood Industrial Estate needn’t use two contractors for its sealant. For premises near Rainham (Kent) station (3.3 miles north-east of Dunn Street), footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.

Dunn Street is about 3 miles south-east of Chatham, in Kent. Anywhere in ME7, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. 931 places across Kent fall within our area, Dunn Street among them. London is covered too, some 31 miles away.

Work on colour-matched joints is covered throughout ME7, whatever the building. If your building is just outside Dunn Street, we cover Lidsing (1 mile north-west), Bredhurst (1 mile north-east), Scragged Oak (1 mile south-east), Kemsley Street (1 mile north-east) and Lower Cox Street (1 mile south-east). Further afield, our area takes in Maidstone (5 miles south-west), Sittingbourne (7 miles east), Gravesend (11 miles north-west), Tonbridge (15 miles south-west), Faversham (14 miles east) and Northfleet (12 miles north-west).

Dunn Street: questions and answers

Is Dunn Street off your patch?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Dunn Street?

Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Send colour references or photographs and we’ll confirm what’s available for the product.

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 seal on top of existing sealant?

No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

Will you quote for a small job?

Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

How long does a job like this take?

It depends on the scope, but the work normally takes a few hours or a phased programme, depending on joint lengths and how many colours are involved. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.

What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?

The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.

How the job changes by surface

Cladding panels

Multi-coloured cladding needs a joint colour that works across it. Sometimes a mid-tone suits better than matching one panel.

Brick and masonry

Movement joints in brickwork are long and visible. The right colour keeps them discreet.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Smaller jobs around Dunn Street can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
  2. We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
  3. Where colour is critical, a sample bead can be agreed in a discreet spot.
  4. We take out the existing bead, clean the joints and fit backing.
  5. We apply the agreed colour and tool it neatly, with masking where the finish needs it.

Getting the site ready

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Leave it or put it right?

Agreeing the colour before work starts avoids paying twice. A sample takes little time compared with replacing joints in the wrong colour. Around Dunn Street, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
