On site: what to expect
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we are cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- Send details through our quote form, or ask for a site visit.
- We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
- Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
- Every failed bead is removed rather than covered.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.
Before we start on site
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Commercial sealant contractors for commercial buildings in Aldwych
Inside a commercial building, sealant does a lot of quiet work: washroom fittings, kitchen worktops, window boards, partition heads and the line where floors meet walls. Externally it keeps rain out of frame perimeters, panel joints and movement joints. Our applicators work on both the inside and the outside of the building, picking the product for each location rather than one tube for everything. If you’re dealing with black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off and wall and floor joints that have lost their seal, we can help. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Aldwych from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
A lot of what we do in Aldwych is replacing sealant that has done its years: hardened, cracked or shrunk away from the faces, and letting water or dirt in.
Around Aldwych, as across the capital, commercial buildings range from converted period premises to recent office and mixed-use blocks, so one job can involve stone, brick, powder-coated frames and laminate in a single visit. The right product goes on each, in a colour chosen to suit where the joint is seen.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Leave it or put it right?
Putting off a reseal normally moves the cost rather than avoiding it. Once water gets behind the seal, finishes and ceilings underneath are next, and the bill then involves other trades. Dealing with it while the damage stops at the bead is the cheaper route. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What you get with us
- One contact handling all your sites
- RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- Our applicators hold CSCS cards

Working on commercial sites near Aldwych
Contractor rules in London buildings can be strict, with inductions, permits and timed loading all normal. We plan around them and agree phasing so tenants and clients aren’t disrupted. Aldwych has at least three named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Units on sites like these change tenants and get refitted, and each refit leaves joints to seal.
In hotels such as Hotel Strand Continental, under half a mile to the south of Aldwych, refurbishments usually mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes. Shops and cafés around stations like London Charing Cross station (to the south-west of Aldwych) trade from early, so work is timed around them. Units at places like Brunswick Centre, 0.8 miles to the north of Aldwych, are refitted as brands change, and the joints have to suit each new scheme.
Aldwych is about 1 mile north-west of London, in Greater London. Across the W1D postcode area, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Aldwych is one of 764 places in Greater London on our list.
We cover the W1D, WC2H and W1F postcode districts. We cover commercial and managed buildings on Shoe Lane, Drury Lane and New Square. You will find Aldwych on or near the A4 and A301. If your building is just outside Aldwych, we cover Clare Market (1 mile north), Covent Garden (1 mile west), Temple Bar (1 mile east), Temple (1 mile east) and Adelphi (1 mile south-west). Nearby towns on our patch include Kensington (4 miles west), Walthamstow (6 miles north-east), Hampstead (4 miles north-west), Ruislip (13 miles west), Stockwell (3 miles south) and Orpington (13 miles south-east).
Around Aldwych
In Aldwych, that means premises near Ye Old White Horse pub, Lincoln's Inn Fields and Mercers' School, among other places. Other local landmarks include LSE Shaw Library (less than half a mile north-east) and London Nautical School (0.6 miles south-east). Aldwych’s nearest station is London Charing Cross station, roughly 0.5 miles south-west of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Montfichet's Tower (0.7 miles east) and Gabriel's Wharf (0.5 miles south-east). Open spaces near Aldwych include Barnsbury Wood and Ludgate Hill.
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Walls or slabs moving more than any sealant can take
- Leaking roofs, gutters or flat-roof membranes (those need a roofer)
- Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Questions about Aldwych
Will our hotel in Aldwych need to close for the work?
In most cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Will you take on work at estates like Grand Vitesse Industrial Estate, close to Aldwych?
Yes, sites like Grand Vitesse Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Aldwych. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Will the building have to shut during the work?
We phase the work so parts of the building stay open. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.
Do you work in Aldwych?
Yes. Aldwych is in our area, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?
Yes. Use our quote form to send the site details, or phone or email us.
What about asbestos in old mastic?
It’s possible in older buildings, especially those built before 2000. Before cutting anything out, we ask for the asbestos register or survey, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes as long as the agreed scope needs, from a single visit to a programme spread over several weeks. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
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.
What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Access and working height
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Where the site is, with the postcode
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Deal with small splits before they become leaks
- Keep a record of which joints were resealed and when
- Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
- On pre-2000 buildings, share the asbestos information before work starts
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details with your O&M or maintenance records, and tell us if a joint we sealed gives trouble within that time.
In kitchens and washrooms, a failed joint is a cleaning problem as well as a leak risk. Cleanability is something environmental health officers pay attention to.
