About our coloured sealant in Falmer
A colour-matched bead still has to work as a seal. Faces are prepared, depth is fixed with rod and the bead is tooled onto two sides only, exactly as for a standard colour. Clean masking and steady tooling give the sharp lines colour work needs. We work on natural stone and brick, office fit-out finishes and hotel bathrooms and public areas, and what we are called in for most is white or grey sealant that clashes with the finish and poorly tooled joints on visible finishes. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Falmer, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
A job in a smaller place like Falmer is normally a single building. We plan the visit so everything on the list is done in one go, with the right products and colours on hand.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

On site: what to expect
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Rural sites near Falmer may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- We confirm the joint type and the product it needs.
- Your RAL reference, sample or photo is checked against that product’s colours.
- You approve the colour, on site if it’s critical.
- The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
- Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
- Masking comes off and the work is checked with you.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

When it isn’t the sealant

- Paintable products in joints they aren’t suited to
- Restoring stained stone or masonry next to old sealant

Do you need coloured sealant in Falmer?
Exposure takes its toll on colour. Sunlight, dirt and pollution can darken, yellow or chalk the surface, and an old match drifts. A reseal brings the colour back in line.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Weathered sealant that no longer matches
- Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
- Patch repairs in several different colours
- Dirty, discoloured joints in public areas
A business with units at Fairway Industrial Estate and Westergate Business Centre needn’t use two contractors for its sealant.

Why it’s worth doing now in Falmer
Across a chain of shops or hotels, consistency matters. Fixing the colour reference at the start keeps every site the same across the programme. Around Falmer, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Why us?
- Commercial sealant work since 2005
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job

Falmer: questions and answers
Is Fairway Industrial Estate, near Falmer, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Falmer, Fairway Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Is a smaller place like Falmer outside your area?
No. Places such as Falmer are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work to a RAL reference?
Yes. Give us the RAL reference and we will check it against the product’s range. You’ll see the nearest options.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

There are three care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Falmer. Care settings have kitchens, lounges and corridors where joints need to be neat and easy to clean.
