About our coloured sealant in Guston
We take on colour-matched work across new fit-outs, refurbishments and resealing of existing joints. When replacing old joints, the new colour usually has to match what’s already there. Site teams most often ask us about stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms and discoloured joints on a visible elevation, on office fit-out finishes, shop-fit joinery and counters and powder-coated and anodised frames. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Guston, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In and around smaller places such as Guston, 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.
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.

What happens if it’s left?
A brand roll-out or multi-site fit-out benefits from a consistent sealant colour. Setting one product and colour for every site avoids variation across the programme. Halls, stores and units around places like Guston may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Ask contractors to check the colour before resealing
- Keep the same sealant colour across a brand
- Settle the colour with the designer at the start
- Check a trial length in real light
Let the joints cure as the manufacturer advises before they’re cleaned. Fresh coloured beads show fingerprints and dust more easily, so keep the area clear.
Put the sealant colour into the specification or finishes schedule. Late decisions lead to substitutes and mismatches, so agree it with the designer at the start.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Questions we’re asked in Guston
Will our hotel in Guston need to close for the work?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. The plan is built around your bookings.
Is White Cliffs Business Park, near Guston, within your area?
Yes, sites like White Cliffs Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Guston. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
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.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
Does coloured sealant change colour outdoors?
Some change is normal outdoors. Sunlight, dirt and weathering affect how it looks, and resealing brings the look back.
On site: what to expect
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. Jobs in and around smaller places like Guston are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. 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.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

How the job changes by surface
Cladding panels
Cladding joints are often seen across a whole elevation. We pick a facade-grade sealant in a shade that sits with the panels.
Powder-coated and anodised frames
Frames finished to a RAL reference are a frequent colour-matching job. The frame colour is checked against what the product is made in, and you confirm the choice.

Before we quote, we look at:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Access and working height
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements

- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
