When to call us in Iden
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.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Wall and floor joints that have lost their seal
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
- Messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down
- Hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations
A unit on an estate like Jempson Trading Estate (to the south of Iden) normally has an office front, a trade counter and staff facilities with joints of their own.

From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. Jobs in and around smaller places like Iden are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- Site photos, drawings or a visit tell us what’s there and how it has failed.
- A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
- We agree the order of work, access windows and site hours with you.
- The failed sealant comes out and the faces are prepared, with primer where required.
- Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
- We hand back each area with its cure time and our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

FAQs: Iden
Do you cover business parks and estates near Iden, such as Jempson Trading Estate?
Yes. We cover Iden and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Jempson Trading Estate. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Is Iden off your patch?
Not at all. Iden is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
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.
Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?
On older buildings, our first request is the asbestos survey. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder, and we don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Will the building have to shut during the work?
That comes down to planning: we agree access windows, phase the work and keep enough facilities open. Let us know what can’t close and we’ll work around it.
Why deal with it now?
Leaving a failed joint rarely saves money. Water past a frame perimeter or a washroom joint can reach plasterboard, insulation, floor coverings and the ceiling below, which brings decorators and flooring contractors into the repair. Resealing while only the sealant has failed keeps the job small. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Iden. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Why us?
- Over 20 years of commercial sealing
- Colour agreed before work starts
- A fixed quote before work starts
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product

After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Respect the cure time before reopening an area
- Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
- Keep washroom and kitchen extraction working
- Make sure contractors see the asbestos survey before cutting out old mastic
New joints need their full cure time before they take water, cleaning or traffic. That time depends on the product, the temperature and the joint depth, and we confirm it when each area is handed back. Leaving the area closed until then keeps the bead neat.
Sealant installed at the same time typically fails in sequence. The first failures are often a warning about the rest so the whole run is worth inspecting. We will tell you which sealant joints need doing first and which can wait.
What we can’t put right
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Leaking roofs, gutters or flat-roof membranes (those need a roofer)
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- A dripping trap, valve or pipe behind a fitting
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Washrooms and tea points
- Floor and threshold joints
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Window and door perimeters
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- External facade joints
When to bring in a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
