Your questions answered
Is Hastoe too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. 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.
Will our hotel in Hastoe need to close for the work?
In the majority of cases no closure is needed: we work room by room or floor by floor. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
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. We can work to your instruction process and site rules.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
How do you keep disruption to occupiers down?
Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.
From enquiry to sign-off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Rural sites near Hastoe may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- You send photographs, drawings or a list of the joints and areas involved, 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.
- Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
- We fit backing to the right depth, prime where specified and lay the new bead.
- Each area is inspected, signed off and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

Advice
What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
- Walls or slabs moving more than any sealant can take
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer 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
Different surfaces, different methods
Washrooms and toilets
Mould that has grown into washroom sealant can’t usually be cleaned out. The lasting answer is removal, preparation and a new sanitary bead, room by room if that suits the building.
Shop fronts and retail fit-outs
Retail work typically has to fit around trading. Tell us your trading hours and access windows and we will plan around them, working in sections where that helps.
Common problems we fix in Hastoe
No sealant joint is permanent. How long one lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure to sun and weather, the cleaning regime, the traffic and the product itself. In commercial buildings those factors tend to act together, so periodic inspection matters more than any date on a schedule.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- A top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting
- Movement joints packed with grit and debris
- Hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations
- Shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks
Offices and shops close to stations such as Tring station, 2.7 miles north-east of Hastoe, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- How they handle RAMS and site documents

Doing it in-house
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
