Sealant specialists in Ashmore Green
How long a joint lasts is decided before any sealant leaves the gun. Silicone has no grip on cured silicone, so the failed bead is cut out completely. Where the sealant maker specifies a primer for that substrate, it goes on before the new bead, and a backing rod limits the depth to give the sealant room to work. The enquiries we see most involve external beads that have gone brittle and cracked and shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks, across external facade joints, floor and threshold joints and kitchen worktops and splashbacks. Most enquiries from Ashmore Green start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Occupied buildings in Ashmore Green need the work phased: washrooms in turn, floors in sections and entrances kept open.
Business units in the countryside around places like Ashmore Green are often converted barns, stables or farmyards. 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.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For a building around Ashmore Green, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- Site photos, drawings or a visit tell us what’s there and how it has failed.
- You get a fixed quote covering removal, preparation and the new sealant.
- Sequence, access and working times are settled before the first joint is touched.
- Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
- Depth is set with backing, then the sealant is applied, tooled and the area tidied.
- We hand back each area with its cure time and our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
Request a quote
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

After the work
After handover, these steps help:
- Deal with small splits before they become leaks
- Ask fit-out and M&E contractors to report any sealant they disturb
- Keep a record of which joints were resealed and when
- Don’t let cleaning or traffic back on before the cure time is up
Later works are the usual way new joints get damaged. When fittings are moved or cabling added, the sealant nearby is easily disturbed, and it’s easy to forget to reseal afterwards. Where work has disturbed a joint, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over for a quote.
In kitchens and washrooms, a failed joint is a cleaning problem as well as a leak risk. Environmental health officers look at how cleanable surfaces are.
Ashmore Green: questions and answers
Is Ashmore Green too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you work at a site such as Turnpike Road Industrial Estate, by Ashmore Green?
Yes, sites like Turnpike Road Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Ashmore Green. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Who decides which product is used?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with five million pounds of public liability insurance.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How long do sealant joints last?
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.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
What happens if it’s left?
On many buildings the mastic was done by whichever trade was on site. A specialist applicator takes care of product choice, joint depth and preparation. It shows over the following seasons rather than at handover. Around Ashmore Green, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Pricing sealant joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What you get with us
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- Fixed quotes based on photographs, drawings or a visit
- Our applicators hold CSCS cards

How the job changes by surface
Commercial kitchens and tea points
Kitchen joints along worktops, sinks, splashbacks and wall cladding collect grease and moisture. Proper degreasing comes before any new sealant, with a food-safe or hygienic product wherever food contact can happen.
Washrooms and toilets
Around WCs, urinals, vanity tops, IPS panels and cubicles, sealant is wet most of the day. We cut out mouldy or split beads and reseal in anti-mould sanitary silicone, phasing the rooms so not every toilet is closed at once.
What sealant work can’t fix
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Floor and threshold joints
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- External facade joints
- Washrooms and tea points
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- Window and door perimeters
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
