Commercial sealant contractors for East Hill sites

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

When it isn’t the sealant

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:

  • Water from a services leak rather than a joint
  • Walls or slabs moving more than any sealant can take
  • Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant

Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

How we handle commercial sealant contractors in East Hill

Some sealants used before 2000 can contain asbestos, so older stock needs a check first. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before old sealant is disturbed, since managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility. Anything suspect is left alone until it has been tested (removing asbestos-containing materials isn’t something we do). If you’re dealing with movement joints packed with grit and debris and external beads that have gone brittle and cracked, we can put it right. A single leaking joint is often how a building in East Hill first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.

Occupied buildings in East Hill need the work phased: we agree the order with you and hand back each area with its cure time.

Work in smaller places such as East Hill tends to come one building at a time: a pub kitchen, a hall, a small office. We plan the visit so everything on the list is done in one go, with the right products and colours on hand.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

East Hill: questions and answers

Is East Hill off your patch?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Can you match sealant colours for premises in East Hill?

Yes, we can typically get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.

Who decides which product is used?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

How long before the joints can be used?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.

Can weather delay the job?

Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

What site paperwork can you provide?

We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership and carry five million pounds of public liability insurance.

Can areas stay open during the work?

That comes down to planning: areas are phased, access windows agreed and enough washrooms or entrances left in use. Tell us what has to stay open and we’ll plan the job around it.

Working on commercial sites near East Hill

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That helps, but frost and condensation on glass and coated frames still stop outside sealing on some winter mornings. East Hill is about 18 miles from central London. This part of the South East is dense with business parks and out-of-town offices. If you have premises across the region, one contractor can cover them all.

Occupiers with premises at both West Kingsdown Industrial Estate and Blue Chalet Industrial Park could have the sealant at each handled under one quote. A unit on an estate like West Kingsdown Industrial Estate, 1.1 miles to the east of East Hill, usually has an office front, a trade counter and staff facilities with joints of their own. Premises within reach of Shoreham (Kent) station, 2.1 miles west of East Hill, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.

East Hill is about 5 miles north-east of Sevenoaks, in Kent. We send applicators to East Hill for sealant joints. East Hill is one of 931 places in Kent on our list. Our London page has more on work in that area (18 miles or so).

Anyone looking for commercial sealant contractors in TN15 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee.

What sets the cost

To price the job, we consider:

  • Access and working height
  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • The size and state of each joint

A quote for sealant joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

What to include in your enquiry

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • The postcode of the building

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

What the job involves on each surface

Window and door perimeters

Internally, window boards and frame edges often have decorators’ caulk or silicone that has cracked. We use a paintable product where decorating follows and a silicone where it doesn’t, matched to the frame colour where colour matters.

Movement joints in walls and floors

Brickwork, blockwork and floor slabs all have movement joints that need a flexible seal. When the seal fails, debris gets in and the joint stops working. The new sealant is chosen for the movement and, on floors, the traffic.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For work around East Hill, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.

  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. Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
  4. Every failed bead is removed rather than covered.
  5. Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
  6. A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.

Preparing the site

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

Leave it or put it right?

Some low prices are low because nothing gets cut out. New sealant laid on old silicone has nothing to bond to, so it peels. Every quote we give includes full removal and preparation, which is where the lasting value is. Converted and older buildings near places like East Hill tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
