How a job runs
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Smaller jobs around Norton End can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First, details reach us through the quote form or a site visit.
- The cause is diagnosed and the scope priced as a fixed quote.
- Where parts of the building must stay open, the work is phased.
- Every failed bead is removed rather than covered.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Getting the site ready
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on

What the job involves on each surface
Washrooms and toilets
Black sealant in a toilet block is normally beyond cleaning. The lasting answer is removal, preparation and a new sanitary bead, room by room if that suits the building.
Movement joints in walls and floors
Floor joints that take trolleys or forklifts need a tougher filler or sealant. We will recommend the right filler or sealant for the traffic and movement, and tell you if the edges need repairing first.
After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
- Log reseals in the O&M or maintenance records
- Make sure contractors see the asbestos survey before cutting out old mastic
- Have extract fans checked so wet areas dry out
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details with your O&M or maintenance records, and tell us if a joint we sealed gives trouble within that time.
Once sealant fails in a movement joint, grit and debris get in. With nothing soft to close against, the materials either side take the load and start to break up. At that point it’s a repair job rather than a reseal.

What else we do in Norton End
Signs you need commercial sealant contractors in Norton End
Washrooms and kitchens wear sealant out in their own way. Damp, harsh cleaning products and poor ventilation let mould take hold inside the bead; when mould is in the body of the sealant, no cleaner will shift it. The fix is a new bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
- Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
- Weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
Premises within reach of Audley End station, under half a mile to the north-east of Norton End, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
