Common questions from Gerrards Cross clients
Is Gerrards Cross off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Gerrards Cross?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Send colour references or photographs and we will confirm what’s available for the product.
Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, schedule and report back in the way that suits your process.
Is it OK to apply fresh sealant over existing beads?
Full removal is part of every quote. Sealing over traps water and lifts once the joint moves, so it isn’t something we do.
How do you choose the sealant?
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 does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?
Some older mastics did contain asbestos. 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.
Commercial sealant contractors in Gerrards Cross, done properly
A reseal stands or falls on the preparation underneath it. Silicone has no grip on cured silicone, so the failed bead is cut out completely 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. If you are dealing with earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead and water staining near frames, panels or ceilings, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Gerrards Cross it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
We price commercial jobs in Gerrards Cross from photos, drawings or a site visit, and the scope is set out in writing.
Places like Gerrards Cross 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.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

General trades versus a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Frontages, fit-outs and joints in Gerrards Cross
Gerrards Cross has a number of 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. Gerrards Cross sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. That helps, but frost and condensation on glass and coated frames still stop outside sealing on some winter mornings.
Shops and cafés around stations like Gerrards Cross station, less than half a mile north of Gerrards Cross, trade from early, so work is timed around them.

What else we do in Gerrards Cross
Owners, agents and contractors
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Gerrards Cross can form part of a wider programme.
Our process
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. For a job in Gerrards Cross, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photographs of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- First, details reach us through the quote form or 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.
- Every failed bead is removed rather than covered.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
Get a fixed quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

How the quote is worked out
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The size and state of each joint
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Specification clauses that apply
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial kitchens and tea points
Gaps and ragged beads trap dirt that cleaning can’t reach, and cleanability is part of what an inspector looks at. We seal to a neat, cleanable finish and work around service times you agree with us.
Movement joints in walls and floors
A trafficked floor joint needs a different product from a wall joint. The choice comes down to how much the joint moves and what runs over it; if the arrises are broken, we will say so before sealing.
Signs you need commercial sealant contractors in Gerrards Cross
Plenty of failed joints were never sealed with the right product. Painters’ acrylic in a moving joint, vinegar-smelling silicone on metal or natural stone, or a high-modulus product where a low-modulus one was needed all let go sooner than they should. BS 6213 gives guidance on choosing construction sealants.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks
- Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
- Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
- Untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby
For a hotel such as The Bull Hotel (0.5 miles north-west of Gerrards Cross), the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.
