If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
Aftercare for building managers
For the best life from the joints:
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
- Insist on the agreed colour for any repair
- Settle the colour with the designer at the start
- Plan full-run reseals on visible elevations
If other trades disturb a coloured joint, ask them to tell you rather than patch it. A mismatched repair stands out, undoing the look you paid for.
Make sure every contractor knows which sealant and colour are on the building file. It stops mismatched repairs creeping in.
Frontages, fit-outs and joints in Merston
Merston lies roughly 54 miles out from central London. The South East around the capital has large numbers of business parks, offices and retail centres, especially around the motorway corridors. Multi-site occupiers here often want one sealant contractor across all their buildings. Merston sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, outside sealing waits for a dry joint, and cold, damp mornings can delay it.
A business with units at Littlemeads Business Centre and Quarry Lane Industrial Estate needn’t use two contractors for its sealant. Premises within reach of Chichester station, 2.3 miles to the west of Merston, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.

There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- The product specified
- How accessible the joints are
- How much existing material needs removing
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
What to include in your enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them

- Access details, including height

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

Common problems we fix in Merston
Most enquiries start with a joint that looks wrong: white silicone against dark cladding, grey against timber or a yellowed bead on stone. A better-matched colour fixes the appearance without changing the joint’s job.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Dirty, discoloured joints in public areas
- A bead that fights the cladding or frame colour
- Discoloured joints on a visible elevation
- Hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme
If you run an office at a site such as Littlemeads Business Centre, which lies north of Merston, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out.
Questions to ask before you book
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
Why act early in Merston
A mismatched or discoloured bead is a small detail that buyers, guests and clients notice, particularly on high-end finishes. Putting it right costs little compared with the finishes around it, and it lifts the whole area. For buildings around smaller places like Merston, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
A quote for colour-matched joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
