Do you need coloured sealant in Gushmere?
Exposure takes its toll on colour. Sunlight, dirt and pollution can darken, yellow or chalk the surface, so joints that once matched no longer do. A reseal brings the colour back in line.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded
- Colour changes after a rebrand or refit
- Poorly tooled joints on visible finishes
- Coloured joints that have cracked with movement
For premises near Selling station, 0.6 miles to the east of Gushmere, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.
Questions to ask before you book
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
About our coloured sealant in Gushmere
Coloured sealant work ranges from a new shop fit to replacing failed joints on an existing building on sites across Kent. When replacing old joints, the new colour usually has to match what’s already there. We work on natural stone and brick, shop-fit joinery and counters and powder-coated and anodised frames, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are white or grey sealant that clashes with the finish and patch repairs in several different colours. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Gushmere, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In and around smaller places such as Gushmere, the commercial buildings we’re asked about are often pubs, shops, village halls and barns converted to offices. Kitchens, toilets and window frames in all of them need resealing sooner or later.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Gushmere is about 47 miles from central London. This part of the South East is dense with business parks and out-of-town offices. If you have premises across the region, one contractor can cover them all.
A hotel such as Cave Hotel and Golf Resort, 1.2 miles north of Gushmere, shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar.

From enquiry to sign-off
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. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Jobs in and around smaller places like Gushmere are typically planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the finishes.
- We send the closest colours from the product’s range.
- The programme and access are agreed, including any phasing.
- Joints are prepared, primed where specified and backed.
- We seal in the approved colour and tool it smooth.
Before we start on site
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Preventing all fading from sunlight and weathering
- Overpainting a joint that needs a non-paintable product
- Colour variation across natural stone or brick that no single shade can match
If you are not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Office fit-out finishes
- Natural stone and brick
- Cladding panels
- Powder-coated and anodised frames
- Hotel bathrooms and public areas
- Shop-fit joinery and counters
Questions about Gushmere
Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Gushmere?
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.
Is Gushmere too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Gushmere is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
What do you charge?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with a description of the work.
How do I request a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
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.
What affects the price in Gushmere
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Working within restricted access windows
- How much existing material needs removing
- Joint width, depth and condition
Pricing colour-matched joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- The product your specification calls for
- Access details, including height
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- The type of building and who uses it
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Leave it or put it right?
Matching new joints to the existing ones is easier when the whole run is done together. Small repairs at different times rarely match, and the patchwork effect grows. Around Gushmere, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
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 you will have a fixed figure to work with.
Why us?

Maintenance after handover
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Check a trial length in real light
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Avoid piecemeal repairs on coloured joints
- Protect fresh coloured sealant from dust and handling
Don’t let anyone patch a coloured joint with whatever sealant is to hand. Wrong-colour patches are obvious.
Make sure every contractor knows which sealant and colour are on the building file. It stops mismatched repairs creeping in.
