Sealant applicators in Lyndhurst

On older buildings, particularly those put up before 2000, some old mastics and sealants may contain asbestos. Before anything is cut out, we ask for the asbestos register or survey. If a material is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We work on kitchen worktops and splashbacks, window and door perimeters and external facade joints, and what we are called in for most is expansion joints with the sealant torn out and untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby. Searching for sealant specialists in Lyndhurst? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.

Quotes for commercial sealant in Lyndhurst can come from photographs and a joint schedule, or from a walk-round, and the scope is set out in writing.

Around smaller places such as Lyndhurst, small firms often work from converted barns, yards and rural units. Old masonry and timber meet new glazing and partitions in these buildings, and every junction needs a sealant that suits it.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

How a job runs

Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. For a job in Lyndhurst, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. You will then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. First, details reach us through the quote form or a site visit.
  2. We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
  3. Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
  4. Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
  5. A suitable product for each joint goes in at the right depth and is tooled.
  6. A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.

What we need from you

  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

Getting a fixed quote

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Advice

What happens if it’s left?

A cheaper quote sometimes means the old bead stays in. Sealing over looks tidy at handover, then lifts once the joint starts moving. Our prices always include removal of the failed bead and full joint preparation, which is where the lasting value is. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Why appoint us

  • Constructionline member for supplier checks
  • CHAS accredited
  • Matching to RAL references, product permitting

Common questions from Lyndhurst clients

Is a smaller place like Lyndhurst outside your area?

Not at all. Lyndhurst is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Lyndhurst?

Yes, we can normally get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. Send colour references or photographs and we’ll confirm what’s available for the product.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

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.

Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?

Some older mastics did contain asbestos. So we check the register first and stop work on anything suspect until it’s tested.

How many days will you need on site?

That varies with the scale of the job, but the work normally takes a few hours for one area, or a planned series of visits across a bigger building. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.

When is resealing likely to be due?

It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.

When to call us in Lyndhurst

If only one face has lost its grip, that’s an adhesion failure. The usual causes are poor preparation, a missed primer, contamination on the joint face or sealant bonded to the base of the joint. It’s one of the commonest faults we find on earlier work.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
  • Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
  • Layers of sealant, all of them failing
  • Expansion joints with the sealant torn out

For premises near Ashurst New Forest station, which lies north-east of Lyndhurst, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.

What to look for in a quote

  • The named product and why it was chosen
  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee
  • Proof of insurance
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed

When something else is needed

We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:

  • Leaking roofs, gutters or flat-roof membranes (those need a roofer)
  • Structural cracks or movement the joints weren’t designed for
  • Suspect materials that need testing and specialist removal

If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Where we work in Lyndhurst

  • Movement joints in walls and floors
  • Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
  • External facade joints
  • Washrooms and tea points
  • Floor and threshold joints
  • Window and door perimeters

Frontages, fit-outs and joints in Lyndhurst

There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Lyndhurst. In hotels, sealant shows everywhere, from bathroom joints to reception counters, so colour and a clean finish matter. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, outside sealing waits for a dry joint, and cold, damp mornings can delay it.

A hotel such as The Penny Farthing Hotel (to the north of Lyndhurst) shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar.

Lyndhurst is about 4 miles south-west of Totton, in Hampshire. We cover Lyndhurst, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. Our Hampshire coverage takes in 723 places, from busy centres to rural villages. There’s a separate page for Southampton, roughly 9 miles from Lyndhurst.

Owners, agents and contractors

Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
