Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Forstal
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Coloured sealant for commercial buildings in Forstal
Architects, designers and brand teams often specify the sealant colour as carefully as the finishes around it. Most sealant types are made in a broad range of standard colours, and we will confirm the colours available for the specified product before we quote. An exact bespoke match can’t always be promised, so we talk you through the nearest colours. The enquiries we see most involve hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme and old colour-matched joints lifting at the edges, on cladding panels, hotel bathrooms and public areas and shop-fit joinery and counters. Whoever orders the work in Forstal, the brief is typically the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Business units in the countryside around places like Forstal 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.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

What happens if it’s left?
Across a chain of shops or hotels, consistency matters. Setting one product and colour for every site avoids variation from one fit-out to the next. Around Forstal, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Forstal: questions and answers
Is Mid Kent Shopping Centre, near Forstal, within your area?
Yes, sites like Mid Kent Shopping Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Forstal. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is a smaller place like Forstal outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
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.
Does a coloured sealant perform differently from a standard one?
The colour doesn’t change what kind of sealant it is. A properly prepared and tooled joint performs as the product intends.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
Can coloured sealant be used in washrooms and kitchens?
Yes, where the product range allows. Coloured sanitary sealant suits tiled and stone wet areas.
What sets the cost
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- The site address and postcode
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Any specification or named product
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
What we can’t put right
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Stopping sealant from ever changing colour outdoors
- Custom-mixed sealant colours
- Repairing damaged frames or cladding
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work in Forstal

What else we do in Forstal
When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
How a job runs
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. If others near Forstal need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
- Colour references, samples or photos of the finish are checked against the product’s range.
- 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
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Flag any permit to work we will need
