Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
What sets the cost
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- How accessible the joints are
- The size and state of each joint
- How much existing material needs removing
- Which sealant the job calls for
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:

Sealant specialists in Brasted
Commercial occupiers rarely want a floor out of action for sealant work. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them; phased work can also be planned so areas stay in use. It’s the same approach in offices, retail units, hotels, schools and healthcare buildings. The enquiries we see most involve layers of sealant, all of them failing and weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes, across external facade joints, movement joints in walls and floors and floor and threshold joints. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Brasted it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In Brasted, as anywhere, the first joints to go are normally the ones that work hardest: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.
In and around smaller places such as Brasted, the commercial buildings we’re asked about are often pubs, shops, village halls and barns converted to offices. Each has kitchens, washrooms and frames whose joints need renewing in time.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

When to call us in Brasted
In wet areas the enemy is usually mould rather than movement. Constant moisture, cleaning chemicals and weak extraction let mould grow into the sealant; when mould is in the body of the sealant, no cleaner will shift it. Replacement with a sanitary anti-mould silicone is the lasting answer.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy
- Frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
- Wall and floor joints that have lost their seal
Parks like Salters Heath Business Centre (2.4 miles east of Brasted) see tenants come and go, and every move-in brings joints to seal.
Questions to ask before you book
- What site paperwork they can supply
- How they’ll work around occupants
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?

Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. Smaller jobs around Brasted can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- Send details through our quote form, or ask for a site visit.
- We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
- Where parts of the building must stay open, the work is phased.
- Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.
What we need from you
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in

Advice
Common questions from Brasted clients
Will our hotel in Brasted need to close for the work?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we will plan around them.
Is Brasted too far out for you?
Not at all. Brasted is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from 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. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Brasted
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.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Brasted can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- Walls or slabs moving more than any sealant can take
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
