Common questions from Hawkenbury clients
Is Hawkenbury off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Does your area include sites such as Barradale Farm Industrial Estate, near Hawkenbury?
Yes. Our area takes in Hawkenbury and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Barradale Farm Industrial Estate included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work normally takes as long as the agreed scope needs, from a single visit to a programme spread over several weeks. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. We’re fully insured for public liability as well.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
What do you need from us to quote?
Price depends on joint lengths and widths, how much removal is involved, the product, access and phasing. To get a fixed price, send details through our quote form, or phone or email us.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Commercial sealant contractors in Hawkenbury, 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. Where the sealant maker specifies a primer for that substrate, it goes on before the new bead and the joint depth is controlled with backing rod. We work on kitchen worktops and splashbacks, external facade joints and washrooms and tea points, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are movement joints packed with grit and debris and weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Hawkenbury, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
If you look after more than one building near Hawkenbury, the work can be planned as one programme, so standards and paperwork match across every site.
Business units in the countryside around places like Hawkenbury are often converted barns, stables or farmyards. Their mix of old walls with new frames, partitions and floors means many joints between unlike materials.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application.

What we can’t put right

- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly.

Facade and cladding joints
On a facade, a failed joint is often only visible close up. Close-up photographs or a site visit tell us what’s needed, and we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
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’ll say so before sealing.
From enquiry to sign-off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself normally takes anything from part of a day on a short run of joints to several weeks on a large phased package, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go.

General trades versus a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hawkenbury
Before budgeting for new frames, cubicles or worktops, check whether it’s just the sealant. Often the fitting is sound and the joint is the only thing letting it down. Resealing usually costs far less than renewal, though we will tell you honestly if the element itself is the problem. Converted and older buildings near places like Hawkenbury tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

If you have premises across the region, one contractor can cover them all.
