Surface by surface

Shop fronts and retail fit-outs

Retail work normally has to fit around trading. Tell us your trading hours and access windows and we will plan around them, phasing areas so the shop floor stays usable.

Window and door perimeters

Internally, window boards and frame edges often have decorators’ caulk or silicone that has cracked. The product depends on whether the joint will be painted, matched to the frame colour where colour matters.

Sealant applicators in Broomfield

A reseal stands or falls on the preparation underneath it. Old silicone gives new sealant nothing to grip, so every trace of it is removed and the faces are cleaned until they’re sound and dry, with no dust or grease left. Primer is used wherever the manufacturer calls for it on that surface, and a backing rod limits the depth to give the sealant room to work. We work on floor and threshold joints, external facade joints and kitchen worktops and splashbacks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy and frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Broomfield, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Quotes for commercial sealant in Broomfield can come from photographs and a joint schedule, or from a walk-round, with the scope listed so everyone knows what’s included.

Places like Broomfield tend to have a handful of commercial buildings: a local shop, a pub or restaurant, a surgery, a school and the odd office or workshop. 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.

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

What affects the price in Broomfield

Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:

  • How much there is to seal
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • The size and state of each joint
  • Location, for remote and island sites

Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Before you send an enquiry

There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:

  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • When you need the work done
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Clear photographs of the problem areas

Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

Common questions from Broomfield clients

Can the sealant on our Broomfield premises match the finishes?

Yes, sealants come in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references, cladding, stone or frames is a common request. Send colour references or photographs and we’ll confirm what’s available for the product.

Is a smaller place like Broomfield outside your area?

Not at all. Broomfield is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?

In buildings from before 2000 in particular, some old mastics and sealants may contain asbestos. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before disturbing old sealant, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.

Is it OK to apply fresh sealant over existing beads?

Removal comes first, every time. Then the joint is cleaned, primed where the maker specifies, backed to depth and resealed.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

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

Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?

Yes. A large share of our work comes through facilities managers, managing agents and landlords, alongside main contractors. Tell us how you issue work and we will fit in.

Can weather delay the job?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.

Work for main contractors and building owners

When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Broomfield can form part of a wider programme.

What Broomfield’s businesses ask us to seal

At least three named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of Broomfield. Each new occupier on a park like these tends to refit, from reception to staff kitchen; brand colours often come into it. At about 31 miles from central London, Broomfield is within reach of the capital. This part of the South East is dense with business parks and out-of-town offices. Occupiers with several premises in the region tend to prefer one contractor and one point of contact.

Refits at hotels like Channels Hotel, 1.1 miles to the east of Broomfield, bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day. On a business park such as Regiment Business Park (0.8 miles east of Broomfield), sealant work tends to follow fit-outs: receptions, tea points, washrooms and frame perimeters. Premises within reach of Beaulieu Park station, 2.3 miles to the south-east of Broomfield, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.

Broomfield is about 2 miles north of Chelmsford, in Essex. We cover commercial sites throughout Broomfield. Our Essex coverage takes in 644 places, from busy centres to rural villages. For work in that direction, see our London page (31 miles or so).

Anyone looking for commercial sealant contractors in CM1 and CM3 gets the same process as the rest of our area: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Streets here include Mandeville Way, Court Road and Gernon Close, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. Close to Broomfield, our area also takes in Little Waltham (1 mile north), Minnow End (1 mile north), Breeds (1 mile north-west), Patching (2 miles south) and Great Waltham (2 miles north-west).

Local landmarks in Broomfield

Locally, jobs take us to sites close to The Kings Arms Inn and Broomfield Primary School. For rail, the closest station is Beaulieu Park station, about 2.3 miles south-east. Other landmarks nearby include Broomfield Hospital (less than half a mile north-west) and Peter Edwards Museum And Library (2.8 miles south). Not far away are Little Waltham Meadows.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work normally takes part of a day on a small job and longer where several buildings or phases are involved. For a job in Broomfield, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. You will then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. First, details reach us through the quote form or a site visit.
  2. The cause is diagnosed and the scope priced as a fixed quote.
  3. Where parts of the building must stay open, the work is phased.
  4. Every failed bead is removed rather than covered.
  5. A suitable product for each joint goes in at the right depth and is tooled.
  6. A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.

Before we start on site

  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use

Getting a fixed quote

A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Advice

Keeping the joints sound

To get the most from the new sealant:

  • Make sure contractors see the asbestos survey before cutting out old mastic
  • Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
  • Have extract fans checked so wet areas dry out
  • Deal with small splits before they become leaks

Add the resealed joints to your planned maintenance inspections. Regular checks pick up small failures before they become leaks, especially on exposed elevations and in washrooms. Should something look amiss, you can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and send a picture.

Sealant rarely fails all at once across a building. The first failures are often a warning about the rest so the whole run is worth inspecting. We’ll tell you which sealant joints need doing first and which can wait.
