About our coloured sealant in Howlett End
Window, door and shopfront frames in RAL finishes often need a sealant to suit. The frame colour is checked against the sealant’s standard range, and the nearest option is agreed with you. Where nothing in the range is close enough, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may be an alternative, if the joint and specification allow. We work on office fit-out finishes, shop-fit joinery and counters and powder-coated and anodised frames, and what we’re called in for most is weathered sealant that no longer matches and a run of joints in mismatched shades. Most enquiries from Howlett End start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
A job in a smaller place like Howlett End is normally a single building. We’ll want a full list and photos first, so the right products come on the day and nothing waits for a second trip.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Why act early in Howlett End
A mismatched or discoloured bead is a small detail that buyers, guests and clients notice, especially in shop fits and hotels. Putting it right costs little compared with the finishes around it. Older rural buildings around Howlett End move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

- The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.

Cost factors for colour-matched joints
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Phasing around occupants
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
