Cost factors for colour-matched joints
What shapes the price:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The product specified
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
What to include in your enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Any specification or named product
- The type of building and who uses it

About our coloured sealant in New Barnet
Natural materials vary across a single elevation: a stone or brick facade shifts in tone from one area to the next. The aim is a sealant colour that sits comfortably against the whole surface, agreed on site where needed. We work on powder-coated and anodised frames, shop-fit joinery and counters and cladding panels, and what we are called in for most is old colour-matched joints lifting at the edges and dirty, discoloured joints in public areas. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in New Barnet, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Buildings in a London area such as New Barnet rarely close for maintenance: occupied offices, ground-floor retail under residential floors and busy shared entrances. We plan the joints floor by floor or unit by unit with the building manager, so areas stay in use.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

From enquiry to sign-off
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before the next one starts. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
- We remove the existing bead, clean the faces and set the depth.
- The coloured sealant is applied and tooled with clean, masked edges.
What we need from you
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Make sure the joints can be reached

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Signs you need coloured sealant in New Barnet
Failed sealant still has to be dealt with, whatever its colour: it can crack, peel or harden with age and movement. The fix is a full cut-out and a new bead in the right colour.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Previous reseals that don’t match the original
- Old colour-matched joints lifting at the edges
- Discoloured joints on a visible elevation
- Untidy coloured beads with ragged edges
For a shop at a centre such as Spires Shopping Centre, 1.6 miles north-west of New Barnet, tidy joints at counters and displays matter as much as the fixtures.
What your quote should include
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
Why it’s worth doing now in New Barnet
Agreeing the colour before work starts avoids paying twice. A short trial bead costs very little. Failed sealant in a building in New Barnet can quickly affect neighbours, tenants or the floor below: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Putting it right early is less disruptive than dealing with the consequences.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

Different surfaces, different methods
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 the nearest option is agreed.
Paintable sealants
Some joints are better sealed with a paintable product and decorated. It depends on movement and the specification.
FAQs: New Barnet
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
Can you work at a site such as Hadley Manor Trading Estate, by New Barnet?
Yes. Our area takes in New Barnet and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Hadley Manor Trading Estate included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you guarantee a perfect colour match?
No. We can’t promise an exact custom match. We’ll show you the closest colours in the specified product’s range.
Do you match sealant to RAL colours?
Yes. We compare the RAL reference with the colours made for the specified sealant. You will see the nearest options before work starts.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Do you take on colour-matched sealant for shop fits and multi-site roll-outs?
Yes. Shop fits, hotels and office fit-outs are a regular part of our work. Our area takes in Greater London, the South East and Scotland, so one colour reference can carry across every site.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, with some planning. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
