- How much there is to seal
- Phasing around occupants

Before you send an enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Any specification or named product
- Your programme or deadline
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Commercial premises in Faversham
Faversham lies within about 3 miles of the sea. Buildings near the sea put their external joints through more driven rain, with salt air nearer the beach. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. Faversham has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. A hotel refurbishment is full of joints that guests will see, and a matched colour keeps them discreet, with rooms done in turn while the rest stay let.
Premises within reach of Faversham station, less than half a mile south-east of Faversham, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.

Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
- Broken glass or blown double-glazed units

Should maintenance staff do it?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Different surfaces, different methods
Movement joints in walls and floors
Movement joints in walls and floors let the structure expand and contract. 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.
Commercial kitchens and tea points
A smooth, continuous joint is easier to keep clean. Work is timed around the hours you give us so the kitchen isn’t out of use longer than needed.
How a job runs
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts. If you have more than one building in Faversham, they can often be done on the same visit, with one quote covering them. Give us your access times and we will fit the work in.
- We begin with whatever information you have, whether that’s photographs, a drawing or a list of locations, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
- The failure is diagnosed and a fixed quote issued for the work agreed.
- Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
- We strip the failed bead and prepare both faces of the joint.
- We fit backing to the right depth, prime where specified and lay the new bead.
- Finished joints are checked with you and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Advice
Common questions from Faversham clients
Can you supply sealant in our brand colour for a site in Faversham?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Send colour references or photos and we’ll confirm what’s available for the product.
Can being near the sea in Faversham affect the sealant we need?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Is the old sealant taken out first?
Every failed bead is cut out completely. New sealant can’t grip the old bead, so laying over it never lasts, and the faces are brought back to sound, dry material before resealing.
Which site documents can you send us?
Send your site requirements with the enquiry, and the paperwork is confirmed with the quote. From you, we will need the asbestos information for older buildings and any site rules.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?
It can, on some older buildings. That’s why we ask for the asbestos information first, and stop if a material is suspect until it’s tested. HSE guidance on asbestos is a useful reference.
When to call us in Faversham
A good share of the joints we inspect were topped up instead of being renewed. New silicone has nothing to key into so it soon peels and traps moisture against the joint. By the time it shows, there can be two or three layers to cut out.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes
- Earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead
- Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
Refits at hotels like The Ship Hotel (under half a mile east of Faversham) bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day.
