Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
How the quote is worked out
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- How much there is to seal
- Which sealant the job calls for
- The size and state of each joint
- The site’s rules and procedures
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
Details that help us quote
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. It helps to include:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The type of building and who uses it
The quickest route to a quote is a few photographs and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or email us if you’d rather talk the job through.
Commercial mastic work in Moorhouse Bank
On older buildings, particularly those put up before 2000, some old mastics and sealants may contain asbestos. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before old sealant is disturbed, because the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder. Anything suspect is left alone until it has been tested (removing asbestos-containing materials isn’t something we do). We work on kitchen worktops and splashbacks, floor and threshold joints and movement joints in walls and floors, and the failures we are asked to look at most are smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job and black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off. Whoever orders the work in Moorhouse Bank, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Multi-site clients with buildings in and around Moorhouse Bank can put several sites on one programme, with one quote format and one point of contact.
A job in a smaller place like Moorhouse Bank is normally a single building. We plan the visit so everything on the list is done in one go, with the right products and colours on hand.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

External joints still need dry faces and the right temperature, and damp or frosty mornings can hold work up. The area within 2 miles of Moorhouse Bank holds a number of hotels. In hotels, sealant shows everywhere, from bathroom joints to reception counters, so colour and a clean finish matter, with rooms done in turn while the rest stay let.
Shops and cafés around stations like Hurst Green station (2.2 miles south-west of Moorhouse Bank) trade from early, so work is timed around them. A hotel such as The King's Arms Hotel (1.1 miles north-east of Moorhouse Bank) shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar.

General trades versus a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
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.
Moorhouse Bank: questions and answers
Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Moorhouse Bank?
Yes, we can usually get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
Is Moorhouse Bank too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?
In buildings from before 2000 in particular, some old mastics and sealants may contain asbestos. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before disturbing old sealant, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
How is commercial sealant work priced?
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are usually enough to start through our quote form. If a visit is needed we will book one, and a fixed quote follows.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
What the job involves on each surface
Window and door perimeters
Inside, cracked sealant around frames and window boards is common. We use a paintable product where decorating follows and a silicone where it doesn’t.
Shop fronts and retail fit-outs
In retail, sealant is on show. Counters, display units, shopfront frames and floor trims all need a neat line, frequently colour-matched to the fit-out. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Why it’s worth doing now in Moorhouse Bank
Putting off a reseal typically moves the cost rather than avoiding it. Once water gets behind the seal, finishes and ceilings underneath are next. 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 Moorhouse Bank, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
A quote for sealant joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Call for a quote.

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Broken glass or blown double-glazed units

- Roof leaks that only look like a joint problem
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

On site: what to expect
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work typically takes part of a day on a small job and longer where several buildings or phases are involved. If others near Moorhouse Bank need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We begin with whatever information you have, whether that’s photos, a drawing or a list of locations, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
- Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
- Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
- The failed bead is removed and the joint faces cleaned until they’re sound and dry.
- Backing and primer go in where needed, then the chosen sealant is applied and tooled.
- Each area is inspected, signed off and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
