Coloured sealant in Old Hawkinge
Architects, designers and brand teams often specify the sealant colour as carefully as the finishes around it. Standard sealant ranges cover many colours, so we check what the specified product is made in before we quote. We don’t promise an exact custom match, but we will show you the closest options. We work on natural stone and brick, powder-coated and anodised frames and shop-fit joinery and counters, and the failures we are asked to look at most are stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms and weathered sealant that no longer matches. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Old Hawkinge tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
A job in a smaller place like Old Hawkinge is usually a single building. We plan the visit so everything on the list is done in one go, with the right products and colours on hand.

Advice
Common questions from Old Hawkinge clients
Can being near the sea in Old Hawkinge affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Is West Park Farm North Retail Park, near Old Hawkinge, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Old Hawkinge and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as West Park Farm North Retail Park included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Do you take on small jobs?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Frontages, fit-outs and joints in Old Hawkinge
Old Hawkinge is within about 2 miles of the coast. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Sea-facing elevations are usually where failed joints show first. Old Hawkinge has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Sites like these see regular refits, with shopfronts, offices and staff areas to seal; brand colours often come into it.
Occupiers with premises at both West Park Farm North Retail Park and Highfield Industrial Estate could have the sealant at each handled under one quote. Premises within reach of Folkestone Central station (2.3 miles south of Old Hawkinge) often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing. If you look after units at a retail site such as West Park Farm North Retail Park, 1.5 miles south-west of Old Hawkinge, shopfront perimeters and shop-fit joints are where a matched colour shows.

Leave it or put it right?
Agreeing the colour before work starts avoids paying twice. A sample takes little time against redoing a whole elevation. Converted and older buildings near places like Old Hawkinge tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Cost factors for colour-matched joints
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Any access equipment needed
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What to include in your enquiry
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- The product your specification calls for
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
After the work
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Agree the sealant colour early and write it into the specification
- Keep the area clear while the sealant cures
- Use one colour standard across multi-site work
- Record the product and colour reference on the building file
If other trades disturb a coloured joint, ask them to tell you rather than patch it. A mismatched repair stands out, so it is better to reseal the section properly.
Put the sealant colour into the specification or finishes schedule. When colour is left to the last minute, it is often wrong, so agree it with the designer at the start.
