About commercial sealant contractors in Hampshire

A reseal stands or falls on the preparation underneath it. Silicone has no grip on cured silicone, so the failed bead is cut out completely and the faces are cleaned until they’re sound and dry, with no dust or grease left. Where the sealant maker specifies a primer for that substrate, it goes on before the new bead and the joint depth is controlled with backing rod. Most enquiries involve untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby and window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open, across window and door perimeters, movement joints in walls and floors and floor and threshold joints.

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish.

  1. You send photographs, drawings or a list of the joints and areas involved, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
  2. Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
  3. Site hours, access windows and the order of areas are agreed before we start.
  4. We strip the failed bead and prepare both faces of the joint.
  5. The depth is set, primer is used where the maker calls for it, and the fresh bead is applied and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are checked with you and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.

Commercial sealant contractors across Hampshire: the area picture

In Hampshire, much commercial sealant work follows refits in shops, offices and hotels in places such as Basingstoke, Winchester and Gosport. Where the joint is on show, a colour that suits the finish is part of the job.

The South East has large numbers of business parks and industrial estates, especially around the motorway corridors, and we cover Hampshire along with the rest of the region. On the coastal side of Hampshire, sea-facing elevations typically show failed joints first, so they’re worth inspecting more often.

Basingstoke: On estates like Thornycroft Industrial Estate, less than half a mile south-west of Basingstoke, the office and welfare end of each unit has its own sealant to maintain. Shopping centres and retail parks such as The Malls (0.6 miles east of Basingstoke) see a steady turnover of shop fits, each leaving joints where colour and finish matter.

What sealant work can’t fix

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
  • Water from a services leak rather than a joint
  • A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane

Surface by surface

Facade and cladding joints

Facade sealant failures can be hard to spot from the ground. Photos from a closer viewpoint help us price, and we will confirm the colours available for the specified product.

Washrooms and toilets

Black sealant in a toilet block is normally beyond cleaning. The lasting answer is removal, preparation and a new sanitary bead.

Aftercare for building managers

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Deal with small splits before they become leaks
  • Look at the sealant around anything that has been moved or replaced
  • Have extract fans checked so wet areas dry out
  • Add sealant to the planned maintenance inspection list

Good ventilation keeps wet-area sealant in better condition. Extraction that isn’t working keeps the joints wet. It’s worth having fans checked while the sealant is fresh.

Tenants and staff spot black or split sealant quickly. Planned replacement saves fielding the same complaint again and again.

Work for main contractors and building owners

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’ll confirm with the quote.

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

General trades versus a specialist

Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Common questions from Hampshire clients

How long before the joints can be used?

The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.

What site paperwork can you provide?

We confirm documents at quote stage: most clients ask for RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details. Every applicator holds a CSCS card.

Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?

Yes. You can send details through our quote form.

Is failed sealant stripped out, or sealed over?

The old bead is stripped out first. After that come cleaning, primer where needed, backing and the new sealant.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.

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.

Do you take on multi-site sealant work?

Yes. We take on runs of jobs across portfolios as well as single sites, priced site by site or as one programme.
