How we handle commercial sealant contractors in Hassell Street
On older buildings, particularly those put up before 2000, some old mastics and sealants may contain asbestos. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before old sealant is disturbed, because the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder. If a material is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Most enquiries involve movement joints packed with grit and debris and frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away, across external facade joints, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and washrooms and tea points. Most enquiries from Hassell Street start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
If you look after more than one building near Hassell Street, the work can be planned as one programme, with one quote format and one point of contact.
A job in a smaller place like Hassell Street is usually a single building. We will want a full list and photographs first, so the right products come on the day and nothing waits for a second trip.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

What we’re called out for in Hassell Street
A split down the middle of the bead tells a different story. That normally means the joint stretched further than the product could cope with: a bead laid too thin, an over-stretched joint or the wrong movement class. Replacing it like for like rarely holds.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby
- Layers of sealant, all of them failing
- Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
For premises near Wye station (2.7 miles west of Hassell Street), footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.

When to bring in a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Owners, agents and contractors
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Hassell Street can form part of a wider programme.

Hassell Street is about 52 miles from central London. This part of the South East is dense with business parks and out-of-town offices. Firms with branches across the South East can use one contractor for every site.

Your questions answered
Is a smaller place like Hassell Street outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Which documents can you supply for work in Hassell Street?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

What else we do in Hassell Street
Aftercare for building managers
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
- Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
- Look at the sealant around anything that has been moved or replaced
- Make sure contractors see the asbestos survey before cutting out old mastic
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details with your O&M or maintenance records, and tell us if a joint we sealed gives trouble within that time.
Movement joints that fill with debris stop working. The joint can no longer close, so its edges crack or spall. That turns a sealant job into something bigger.
Why act early in Hassell Street
Putting off a reseal typically moves the cost rather than avoiding it. Water past a frame perimeter or a washroom joint can reach plasterboard, insulation, floor coverings and the ceiling below. Resealing while only the sealant has failed keeps the job small. Halls, stores and units around places like Hassell Street may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
