How we handle coloured sealant in Somers Town
We take on colour-matched work across new fit-outs, refurbishments and resealing of existing joints on sites across Greater London. On resealing, matching the existing colour is often as important as the seal itself. The enquiries we see most involve failed coloured sealant that has split or peeled and previous reseals that don’t match the original, on office fit-out finishes, cladding panels and powder-coated and anodised frames. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Somers Town? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Buildings in a London area such as Somers Town 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, and where a brand finish matters, the sealant colour is agreed first.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Somers Town as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Somers Town can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
Common questions from Somers Town clients
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. 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
Does a hotel in Somers Town need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. The plan is built around your bookings.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
In most cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can you quote from photographs?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
What affects the price in Somers Town
What shapes the price:
- How much existing material needs removing
- How much there is to seal
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Any access equipment needed
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- The site address and postcode
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us.
What Somers Town’s businesses ask us to seal
The 3 miles around Somers Town take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Sites like these see regular refits, with shopfronts, offices and staff areas to seal. In London, commercial buildings often have managed loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems. We plan around them and agree phasing so tenants and clients aren’t disrupted.
Shops and cafés around stations like London Euston station, under half a mile to the south-west of Somers Town, trade from early, so work is timed around them. Occupiers with premises at both Roman Way Industrial Estate and Hannover Industrial Estate could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.

Why act early in Somers Town
Standard white or grey sealant is cheaper to stock, but it doesn’t always suit the finish. Where joints are on show, choosing a better colour is usually worth it. Getting scaffold, permits or access booked in Somers Town takes effort, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Why us?
- Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
- Failed material removed, not covered up
- One contact handling all your sites
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
Do you need coloured sealant in Somers Town?
A coloured joint can fail like any other: it can crack, peel or harden with age and movement. We cut out and reseal in the agreed colour.
Look out for the following:
- Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
- Stained or mouldy coloured joints in washrooms
- Untidy coloured beads with ragged edges
- A bead that fights the cladding or frame colour
For a hotel such as St Pancras Renaissance London Hotel, which lies east of Somers Town, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.
What to look for in a quote
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Their public liability cover
- How the existing material will be dealt with
How the job changes by surface
Brick and masonry
Vertical movement joints run the full height of many brick walls. A well-chosen colour helps them blend in while the product still suits the movement.
Paintable sealants
Some joints are better sealed with a paintable product and decorated. It depends on movement and the specification because paint may crack where the joint moves.
How a job runs
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. 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.
- The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
- Colour references, samples or photographs of the finish are checked against the product’s range.
- 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.
- We apply the agreed colour and tool it neatly, with masking where the finish needs it.
Getting the site ready
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
