Coloured sealant across Martin

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Martin can form part of a wider programme.

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.

How we handle coloured sealant in Martin

A coloured bead has to perform like any other sealant. Faces are prepared, depth is fixed with rod and the bead is tooled onto two sides only. Careful masking keeps the edges crisp. We work on powder-coated and anodised frames, shop-fit joinery and counters and office fit-out finishes, and what we’re called in for most is a bead that fights the cladding or frame colour and smeared sealant on stone or joinery. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Martin is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Rural business units near smaller places such as Martin are frequently converted agricultural buildings. Their mix of old walls with new frames, partitions and floors means many joints between unlike materials.

We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

What happens if it’s left?

Resealing a full run gives a consistent colour. Small repairs at different times rarely match, so a planned reseal often looks better value. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Martin, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

How the job changes by surface

Cladding panels

Where panels vary in colour, the joint colour is agreed for the whole elevation. A neutral tone from the range often works best and we can trial it first.

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.

Questions about Martin

Does a hotel in Martin need to shut while its sealant is renewed?

Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.

Is Martin too far out for you?

Not at all. Martin is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Can weather delay the job?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.

Can you match any colour exactly?

No. An exact bespoke match isn’t something we can promise. Sealants come in a wide range of standard colours, and we will confirm the colours available for the specified product.

How do I request a quote?

There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.

Will you come and look before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.

What site paperwork can you supply?

Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.

When it isn’t the sealant

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Restoring stained stone or masonry next to old sealant
  • Paint over sealant on joints that move too much
  • A colour that never alters with age

Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Coloured sealant around Martin: points for this area

Martin is within about 3 miles of the coast. Buildings near the sea put their external joints through more driven rain, with salt air nearer the beach. Sea-facing elevations are normally where failed joints show first. Martin sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. That helps, but frost and condensation on glass and coated frames still stop outside sealing on some winter mornings.

For premises near Martin Mill station, less than half a mile to the south-east of Martin, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading. If you run an office at a site such as White Cliffs Business Park, 2.4 miles to the south-west of Martin, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out.

Martin is about 3 miles north-east of Dover, in Kent. Our applicators travel to Martin for work on colour-matched joints. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places. Sites around London have their own page, about 66 miles away.

Cost factors for colour-matched joints

There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:

  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • How much there is to seal
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Location, for remote and island sites

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Sending details for a quote

Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:

  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • The site address and postcode

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to phone 01277 525 020 or email us.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we are in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Jobs in and around smaller places like Martin are typically planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the finishes.
  2. We send the closest colours from the product’s range.
  3. The programme and access are agreed, including any phasing.
  4. Joints are prepared, primed where specified and backed.
  5. The agreed colour is installed and tooled neatly.

What we need from you

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Agree which areas must stay open

Getting a fixed quote

Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
