Cost factors for colour-matched joints
To price the job, we consider:
- Any access equipment needed
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Location, for remote and island sites
- How much there is to seal
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
What we need to price the job
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:
- Any specification or named product
- Access details, including height
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.
Coloured sealant in Lodge Lees
Colour-matched joints are often among the last items before handover. Adjacent finishes are masked and protected while we work. Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee. Most enquiries involve coloured joints that have cracked with movement and fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification, across office fit-out finishes, natural stone and brick and shop-fit joinery and counters. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Lodge Lees first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Rural business units near smaller places such as Lodge Lees are frequently converted agricultural buildings. Their mix of old walls with new frames, partitions and floors means many joints between unlike materials, and a sealant colour that suits the building’s character is often part of the brief.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

What the job involves on each surface
Paintable sealants
Paintable sealants suit internal, low-movement joints best. We’ll tell you if a joint needs a non-paintable product.
Powder-coated and anodised frames
Frames finished to a RAL reference are a frequent colour-matching job. We compare the reference with the specified product’s colour range, and you confirm the choice.
Work for main contractors and building owners
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.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Common questions from Lodge Lees clients
Is Lodge Lees too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Lodge Lees are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you take on work at estates like Barham Business Park, close to Lodge Lees?
Yes. We cover Lodge Lees and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Barham Business Park. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Does the colour affect how the joint performs?
Colour is a choice within a product’s range, not a separate type of sealant. A properly prepared and tooled joint performs as the product intends.
Do you work on hotel and retail fit-outs?
Yes. Shop fits, hotels and office fit-outs are a regular part of our work. Sites anywhere in our area, from London and the South East to Scotland, can be included, so one colour reference can carry across every site.
When can you be on site?
We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.

When to bring in a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Cleaning or repairing the surrounding finishes
- Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
- Stopping sealant from ever changing colour outdoors
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal

Sealant on show in Lodge Lees’s commercial buildings
Lodge Lees is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External joints still need dry faces and the right temperature, and damp or frosty mornings can hold work up. Lodge Lees has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. In hotels, sealant shows everywhere, from bathroom joints to reception counters, so colour and a clean finish matter.
Shops and cafés around stations like Shepherds Well station (to the east of Lodge Lees) trade from early, so work is timed around them. Refits at hotels like Broome Park Hotel (0.8 miles north-east of Lodge Lees) bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day. If you run an office at a site such as Barham Business Park, which lies west of Lodge Lees, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out.
