Kensal Town: questions and answers
Do you take on jobs in Kensal Town where loading and access are tightly controlled?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. The building manager’s rules go straight into our method.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Kensal Town, such as Latimer Industrial Estate?
Yes, sites like Latimer Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Kensal Town. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Does commercial sealant work come with a guarantee?
Each job sits under our 12-month guarantee. Looking after the joints as we advise helps them last.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?
It’s possible in older buildings, especially those built before 2000. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before disturbing old sealant, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?
Yes, and through main contractors too. You send the details, we return a fixed quote, and the job is done and signed off.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
How we handle commercial sealant contractors in Kensal Town
Most of the buildings we seal stay open while we are there. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them; phasing keeps some washrooms, kitchens or entrances available while others are done. That applies whether the building is an office, a shop, a hotel, a college or a care home. If you’re dealing with a top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting and sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy, we can help, whatever the surface. Most enquiries from Kensal Town 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.
In Kensal Town, as anywhere, the first joints to go are usually the ones that work hardest: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.
For managing agents and FMs looking after premises in Kensal Town, access is typically the first question: loading bay slots, goods lifts, permits to work and somewhere to keep materials. Once that’s settled, the sealant joints are resealed in sections so tenants are disturbed as little as possible.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes a few hours to several days on most single sites, depending on joint lengths and access, and we clear our waste as we work. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- First, details come to us: photographs, drawings or a schedule of the areas, or we arrange a site visit.
- The failure is diagnosed and a fixed quote issued for the work agreed.
- We plan around your site hours and access windows, phasing the work where areas have to stay in use.
- We strip the failed bead and prepare both faces of the joint.
- We fit backing to the right depth, prime where specified and lay the new bead.
- Finished joints are checked with you and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Getting a fixed quote
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.

When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
- A dripping trap, valve or pipe behind a fitting
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Window and door perimeters
- Floor and threshold joints
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- Washrooms and tea points
- External facade joints
Leave it or put it right?
A failed seal around a window, worktop or panel doesn’t mean the element itself has to go. In many cases the element is fine and only the seal around it has given up. Resealing typically costs far less than renewal. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

What we are called out for in Kensal Town
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. The same product in the same joint tends to fail the same way.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead
- Weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes
- Movement joints packed with grit and debris
- Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
A business with units at Latimer Industrial Estate and Stable Way Industrial Estate needn’t use two contractors for its sealant.

Tenant changes on such sites bring fit-outs, and fit-outs bring new joints, often in a colour the occupier specifies. Kensal Town has plenty of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel refurbishments are where a matched sealant colour earns its place: bathroom, bar and reception joints have to sit with the finishes, with rooms done in turn while the rest stay let.

In a retail centre such as Kensington Arcade, 1.8 miles south-east of Kensal Town, new tenants mean new shop fits, and the sealant at counters, frontages and floor edges is part of the finish.

Doing it in-house
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.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
