How the job changes by surface

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.

Window and door perimeters

Where frames meet the surrounding wall, sealant is the weather line. We remove the old seal, prepare the faces, fit backing where needed and seal again with a product chosen for both the frame and the wall.

Commercial sealant contractors for commercial buildings in Bernards Heath

We’ve applied sealant on commercial sites for over 20 years: we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. If your site needs RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, say so and we’ll confirm with the quote. We work on window and door perimeters, external facade joints and washrooms and tea points, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall and untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby. Whoever orders the work in Bernards Heath, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

A lot of what we do in Bernards Heath is replacing sealant that has done its years: hardened, cracked or shrunk away from the faces, and letting water or dirt in.

For a business in Bernards Heath, it usually makes sense to put the sealant work into one visit: frontage, staff facilities and window perimeters on one booking. Fewer visits means less disruption to trading.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

When it isn’t the sealant

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Water from a services leak rather than a joint
  • Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
  • Leaking roofs, gutters or flat-roof membranes (those need a roofer)

If you are not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Floor and threshold joints
  • Movement joints in walls and floors
  • Window and door perimeters
  • Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
  • External facade joints
  • Washrooms and tea points

Cost factors for sealant joints

Before we quote, we look at:

  • Any access equipment needed
  • The product specified
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Joint width, depth and condition

Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

What we need to price the job

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:

  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Specification clauses that apply
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Maintenance after handover

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:

  • Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
  • Log reseals in the O&M or maintenance records
  • Report cracked or peeling sealant early
  • Put external and wet-area joints on a regular inspection round

Give fresh sealant time to cure before it’s cleaned, wetted or walked past. Cure time varies with the product, conditions and depth of the joint. Leaving the area closed until then keeps the bead neat.

Occupiers often notice failing sealant before the facilities team does, and in a hotel, office or shop it makes the whole space look neglected. Replacing it on a planned cycle keeps complaints down.

How a job runs

Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Bernards Heath need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we’ll plan around them.

  1. First, details come to us: photos, drawings or a schedule of the areas, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
  2. Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
  3. We plan around your site hours and access windows, phasing the work where areas have to stay in use.
  4. Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
  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.

What we need from you

  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Advice

Questions about Bernards Heath

Is Bernards Heath too small for you to travel to?

Not at all. Bernards Heath is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can you work at a site such as Sandridge Gate Business Centre, by Bernards Heath?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Bernards Heath, Sandridge Gate Business Centre among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

When can the area be used after sealing?

The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

Can one contractor look after sealant on all our buildings?

Yes. We regularly take on multi-site work and planned maintenance programmes, priced site by site or as one programme.

What site paperwork can you provide?

We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with five million pounds of public liability insurance.

Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?

Yes. You send the details, we return a fixed quote, and the job is done and signed off.

Why deal with it now?

Putting off a reseal typically moves the cost rather than avoiding it. Once water gets behind the seal, finishes and ceilings underneath are next. Dealing with it while the damage stops at the bead is the cheaper route. Small buildings around Bernards Heath suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.

The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.

Why us?

  • CSCS-carded applicators
  • Colour agreed before work starts
  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
