How a job runs
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. Jobs in and around smaller places like Aston are usually planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- First, details come to us: photographs, drawings or a schedule of the areas.
- Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
- Site hours, access windows and the order of areas are agreed before we start.
- Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
- We fit backing to the right depth, prime where specified and lay the new bead.
- Finished joints are checked with you and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Why act early in Aston
Fixing joints complaint by complaint is a costly way to manage sealant. Planning the work across a year or a portfolio means fewer separate visits and a predictable spend. We can help you prioritise, starting with the joints most likely to let water in. Halls, stores and units around places like Aston may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Looking after the joints
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Keep abrasive pads and scrapers off resealed joints
- Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
- Check the asbestos register before anyone disturbs old sealant in an older building
- Respect the cure time before reopening an area
Put sealant on the planned maintenance checklist. A periodic look catches splits and lifting edges early, especially on exposed elevations and in washrooms. If anything looks wrong, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over with a photo.
Occupiers often notice failing sealant before the facilities team does, and it reflects on how the building is run. Replacing it on a planned cycle keeps complaints down.
Doing it in-house
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Surface by surface
Fire-rated seals where specified
Fire-rated sealant is only one type of fire-stopping product. Collars, wraps, batts and boards are specified for other services and gaps, so we will flag it if the detail needs a different product.
Commercial kitchens and tea points
Gaps and ragged beads trap dirt that cleaning can’t reach, which matters when environmental health officers look at a kitchen. We seal to a neat, cleanable finish and work around service times you agree with us.

Questions about Aston
Can you work at a site such as Astonbury Farm & Business Park, by Aston?
Yes. Our area takes in Aston and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Astonbury Farm & Business Park included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
How do we get a quote?

Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit normally takes a few hours for one area, or a planned series of visits across a bigger building. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
The work is guaranteed for 12 months. Should anything we did fail within that period, let us know.
How do you keep disruption to occupiers down?
Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Common problems we fix in Aston
A split down the middle of the bead tells a different story. That typically means the joint stretched further than the product could cope with. Replacing it like for like rarely holds, which is why we look at the joint design as well.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Wall and floor joints that have lost their seal
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
- Frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away
- Layers of sealant, all of them failing
For premises near Knebworth station, which lies south-west of Aston, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually carry out the work
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
