About our coloured sealant in Northfleet
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 you approve the choice. If the range has no close colour, a paintable sealant can sometimes be overpainted, where the specification allows. Most enquiries involve sealant that no longer suits recoated frames and old sealant that has yellowed, darkened or faded, across cladding panels, shop-fit joinery and counters and hotel bathrooms and public areas. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Northfleet, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Smaller commercial landlords and businesses in a town like Northfleet often have a handful of sealant jobs that can go on one visit: a frontage, a staff washroom, a kitchen and a few window perimeters, for instance. A single fixed quote covers everything on the list.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

General trades versus 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.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Aftercare for building managers
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Reseal whole runs rather than patching single joints
- Keep the colour details for future repairs
- Brief cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Don’t let trades patch coloured joints with a random sealant
Clean coloured joints with mild, non-abrasive products. Harsh chemicals and scouring can change how the colour looks.
Put the sealant colour into the specification or finishes schedule. Late decisions lead to substitutes and mismatches.
FAQs: Northfleet
Does your area include sites such as Imperial Business Park, near Northfleet?
Yes, sites like Imperial Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Northfleet. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do hotels near Northfleet have to close for sealant work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Can you match any colour exactly?
No, not always. We match as closely as the product’s range allows and can agree a sample bead first.
Does the colour affect how the joint performs?
The product type decides performance, not the colour. The joint gets the product it needs, in a colour from that product’s range, installed in exactly the same way.
Do you match sealant to RAL colours?
Yes. Give us the RAL reference and we’ll check it against the product’s range. We will tell you which colour is closest before work starts.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can wet areas have colour-matched sealant?
Yes. Sanitary silicones with anti-mould additives come in a range of colours too. We check the colour range of the sanitary product specified.
What sealant work can’t fix
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Paintable products in joints they aren’t suited to
- Custom-mixed sealant colours
- Cleaning or repairing the surrounding finishes
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes about the same time as any other sealant work, plus a little longer if a sample bead is agreed first, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For a town like Northfleet, we try to group jobs for the same client into one visit. Tell us when the building is open and we will plan to suit.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the finishes.
- We send the closest colours from the product’s range.
- The programme and access are agreed, including any phasing.
- We prepare each joint, prime where needed and fit backing.
- We seal in the approved colour and tool it smooth.
Before we start on site
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Advice
When to call us in Northfleet
Patch repairs in a different colour are a common problem. Mixed repairs over time leave a run of mismatched joints. Resealing a whole run in one agreed colour tidies it up.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Poorly tooled joints on visible finishes
- Colour changes after a rebrand or refit
- Shop fits that need consistent sealant colours across sites
- Marked sealant in hotel bathrooms
For tenants and agents on sites such as Imperial Business Park, 0.9 miles north-east of Northfleet, office fit-outs, reception joints and window perimeters are the usual sealant work.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
