About our commercial sealant contractors in Bocking Churchstreet

Most commercial buildings carry hundreds of metres of sealant that nobody thinks about until it fails. We are commercial sealant applicators for FMs, managing agents, landlords and contractors looking after property in Bocking Churchstreet. Our job is to diagnose the failure, remove the old bead and seal again using a product chosen for the movement and exposure. Most enquiries involve damp patches where an external joint has failed and earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead, on movement joints in walls and floors, window and door perimeters and kitchen worktops and splashbacks. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Bocking Churchstreet first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

In an occupied building in Bocking Churchstreet, the job is planned so areas stay in use: washrooms in turn, floors in sections and entrances kept open.

In a smaller place such as Bocking Churchstreet, commercial buildings are typically a mix of shops, a pub or café, a school, a surgery and perhaps a few business units. Each job is modest, yet a joint in a small café needs the same cutting out, cleaning and sealing as one in a city office.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Bocking Churchstreet

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Bocking Churchstreet can form part of a wider programme.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.

How the quote is worked out

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • The total length or number of joints
  • Access and working height
  • Phasing around occupants

The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Sending details for a quote

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Your programme or deadline
  • The postcode of the building

Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us with what you know.

What the job involves on each surface

Washrooms and toilets

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

Shop fronts and retail fit-outs

In retail, sealant is on show. Joints around counters, displays and shopfront frames have to look tidy as well as seal, often in a colour to suit the brand finish. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.

Sealant on show in Bocking Churchstreet’s commercial buildings

Occupiers with several premises in the region tend to prefer one contractor and one point of contact. Two named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of Bocking Churchstreet.

A business with units at Springwood Industrial Estate and Goulds Farm Industrial Estate needn’t use two contractors for its sealant.

Should maintenance staff do it?

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Why act early in Bocking Churchstreet

Spot repairs have their place. If the rest of the bead is the same age and product, though, it’s usually close behind, so access and set-up end up being paid for twice. We can price both options so you can decide on the facts. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Common questions from Bocking Churchstreet clients

Is a smaller place like Bocking Churchstreet outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Will our hotel in Bocking Churchstreet need to close for the work?

Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.

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

Yes. We quote, schedule and report back in the way that suits your process, with a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship.

How long does a job like this 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.

Will the building have to shut during the work?

It’s normal for us to work in occupied buildings. Only the area being sealed is closed, and the sequence is agreed in advance for as long as the cure needs.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.

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.
