Coloured sealant in Todd's Green
Matching to anodised or powder-coated frames is a common request. We compare the RAL reference with the colours made for the specified sealant, and you approve the choice. Where nothing in the range is close enough, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may be an alternative, if the joint and specification allow. Most enquiries involve discoloured joints on a visible elevation and joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour, across natural stone and brick, hotel bathrooms and public areas and shop-fit joinery and counters. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Todd's Green first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Rural business units near smaller places such as Todd's Green are frequently converted agricultural buildings. Old masonry beside new aluminium, timber and plasterboard gives plenty of joints between materials that move differently, and a sealant colour that suits the building’s character is often part of the brief.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled.

Advice
Signs you need coloured sealant in Todd's Green
A coloured joint can fail like any other: splits, adhesion loss and hardening all happen. The fix is a full cut-out and a new bead in the right colour.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Smeared sealant on stone or joinery
- Joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour
- A bead that fights the cladding or frame colour
- Marked sealant in hotel bathrooms
A hotel such as Redcoats Farmhouse Hotel (to the west of Todd's Green) shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar.
What your quote should include
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area

Common questions from Todd's Green clients
Do you cover business parks and estates near Todd's Green, such as Horizon Technology Park?
Yes. We cover Todd's Green and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Horizon Technology Park. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Todd's Green off your patch?
Not at all. Todd's Green is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Does a coloured sealant perform differently from a standard one?
Performance comes from the sealant type and the installation. The joint gets the product it needs, in a colour from that product’s range with the same preparation and backing.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
When can you be on site?
We are in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
Surface by surface
Paintable sealants
Overpainting is most common on internal joints with little movement. We will tell you if a joint needs a non-paintable product.
Brick and masonry
Brickwork joints normally look best in a colour close to the mortar or brick. We choose a suitable shade from the product’s range before work starts.

Units on sites like these change tenants and get refitted, and each refit leaves joints to seal, often in a colour the occupier specifies.
Offices at parks like Horizon Technology Park, 2.2 miles to the south of Todd's Green, have receptions, kitchens and glazed partitions where a tidy joint matters. Occupiers with premises at both Horizon Technology Park and Monkswood Retail Park could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
