Coloured sealant in Harefield, done properly

Coloured sealant is a finishing trade, so it normally comes late in a programme. Adjacent finishes are masked and protected while we work, and snag any marks before we leave. A 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship. If you are dealing with stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms and failed coloured sealant that has split or peeled, we can put it right, on shop-fit joinery and counters, hotel bathrooms and public areas and natural stone and brick alike. Most enquiries from Harefield start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.

Around smaller places such as Harefield, small firms often work from converted barns, yards and rural units. Those conversions put new frames and partitions against old brick, stone or timber, so each joint needs a product chosen for both surfaces.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

Why act early in Harefield

Agreeing the colour before work starts avoids paying twice. A short trial bead costs very little. For buildings in places like Harefield, one well-planned visit beats several small ones, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

Why us?

  • CHAS accredited
  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
  • Public liability insurance in place

Coloured sealant around Harefield: how the place shapes the job

Harefield lies within about 3 miles of the sea. Exposed frontages near the sea are hard on sealant, so the product has to suit the weather as well as the look. A matched colour is only half the brief on an exposed frontage. Rainfall across the South East, Harefield included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, outside sealing waits for a dry joint, and cold, damp mornings can delay it.

A hotel such as Bitterne Park Hotel (to the west of Harefield) shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar. Offices and shops close to stations such as Bitterne station, 1.5 miles to the west of Harefield, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours. Occupiers with premises at both Hedge End Retail Park and Hedge End Trade Park could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.

Harefield is about 2 miles east of Southampton, in Southampton. Commercial clients in Harefield use us for work on colour-matched joints, as part of our coverage of Southampton. Across Southampton, 30 places are covered, including Harefield.

How a job runs

Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Harefield need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we’ll plan around them.

  1. First we agree which sealant type the joint needs.
  2. We compare the target colour with the colours available.
  3. The nearest colour is agreed, with a sample bead where needed.
  4. The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
  5. Edges are masked and the coloured sealant applied and tooled.
  6. We remove the masking and walk the finished joints with you.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Make sure the joints can be reached

Advice

What sealant work can’t fix

A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:

  • A colour that never alters with age
  • Repairing damaged frames or cladding
  • Finishes that change colour from one area to another

Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we seal

  • Natural stone and brick
  • Hotel bathrooms and public areas
  • Powder-coated and anodised frames
  • Office fit-out finishes
  • Shop-fit joinery and counters
  • Cladding panels

Keeping the joints sound

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:

  • Ask contractors to check the colour before resealing
  • Clean coloured joints with mild products
  • Keep the same sealant colour across a brand
  • Avoid piecemeal repairs on coloured joints

Expect some change in appearance over the years. That is normal for exposed sealant, and resealing restores the look when the time comes.

Ask for a trial bead on high-profile areas. A sample in real light shows how it will look.

Common questions from Harefield clients

Do hotels near Harefield have to close for sealant work?

Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. The plan is built around your bookings.

Can you work at a site such as Hedge End Retail Park, by Harefield?

Yes. Our area takes in Harefield and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Hedge End Retail Park included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Can we specify the colour by RAL number?

Yes. RAL references are a common way to specify sealant colour. We check what that product is made in.

Are you CHAS accredited?

Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

Will you come and look before quoting?

Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit.

What hours do you work?

Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will schedule the work to suit. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.

Should maintenance staff do it?

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
