Need coloured sealant in Fordwich?
Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
Our process
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Jobs in and around smaller places like Fordwich are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- 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.
- A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
- We take out the existing bead, clean the joints and fit backing.
- The coloured sealant is applied and tooled with clean, masked edges.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Agree which areas must stay open
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Coloured sealant in Fordwich
Shop fits, hotels and offices are where colour-matched sealant earns its place. A grey bead on a black shopfront or a white line against oak looks like a defect. We pick a colour from the product’s range that sits with the finish. If you have previous reseals that don’t match the original and discoloured joints on a visible elevation, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Fordwich start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
A job in a smaller place like Fordwich is typically a single building. We will want a full list and photographs first, so the right products come on the day and nothing waits for a second trip.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Looking after the joints
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Ask contractors to check the colour before resealing
- Avoid abrasive pads on coloured sealant
- Standardise colours across a portfolio
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
Don’t let anyone patch a coloured joint with whatever sealant is to hand. A mismatched repair stands out, so it is better to reseal the section properly.
Ask for a trial bead on high-profile areas. A sample in real light shows how it will look.
What we can’t put right
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Repairing damaged frames or cladding
- Overpainting a joint that needs a non-paintable product
- Stopping sealant from ever changing colour outdoors
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

What the job involves on each surface
Cladding panels
Multi-coloured cladding needs a joint colour that works across it. Sometimes a mid-tone suits better than matching one panel, and a sample settles it.
Hotel interiors
Phased resealing lets rooms go back into use quickly. We plan around your occupancy with areas kept in use.
What sets the cost
To price the job, we consider:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Access and working height
- How much existing material needs removing
- Travel to remote or island sites
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What to include in your enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- What the building is and how it’s used
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Questions about Fordwich
Is a smaller place like Fordwich outside your area?
Not at all. Fordwich is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can the sealant on our Fordwich 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. Send colour references or photos and we will confirm what’s available for the product.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Will you just go over the old 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.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Can you fit around our working hours?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs usually get a visit.
Why it’s worth doing now in Fordwich
Agreeing the colour before work starts avoids paying twice. A sample takes little time. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Fordwich. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
