Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
- Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
- Deal with small splits before they become leaks
- Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
Keep an eye out for other trades after we’ve gone. Shop refits, new services and replaced fittings often break the seal around them. Where work has disturbed a joint, just ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email for a quote.
Once sealant fails in a movement joint, grit and debris get in. The joint can no longer close, so its edges crack or spall. That turns a sealant job into something bigger.
Commercial sealant contractors in Petersham, done properly
Sometimes a split bead is a symptom rather than the cause. Water at a window perimeter might be coming from the frame, the cill or the wall behind while a movement joint that keeps tearing may simply be too narrow for the job. We look before we quote and tell you plainly if sealant won’t solve it, so nobody pays for a reseal that can’t hold. Most enquiries involve earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead and external beads that have gone brittle and cracked, across external facade joints, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and washrooms and tea points. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Petersham, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
We price commercial jobs in Petersham from photos, drawings or a site visit, and the scope is set out in writing.
For managing agents and FMs looking after premises in Petersham, access is usually the first question: booked loading, goods-lift times, the permit system and a place to stage materials. Once that’s settled, the sealant joints are resealed in sections so tenants are disturbed as little as possible.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Leave it or put it right?
Putting off a reseal typically moves the cost rather than avoiding it. Once water gets behind the seal, finishes and ceilings underneath are next, and the bill then involves other trades. Resealing while only the sealant has failed keeps the job small. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.

Our process
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.
- Send details through our quote form, or ask for a site visit.
- The cause is diagnosed and the scope priced as a fixed quote.
- Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
- Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.
Preparing the site
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
Quotes
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Advice
What we can’t put right
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Broken glass or blown double-glazed units
- Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)
- Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Questions we are asked in Petersham
Do you take on jobs in Petersham where loading and access are tightly controlled?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Share the building’s contractor rules and we will work to them. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Does a hotel in Petersham need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
How is commercial sealant work priced?
Price depends on joint lengths and widths, how much removal is involved, the product, access and phasing. For a fixed quote, send details through our quote form.
Do you work in Petersham?
Yes. We cover Petersham, and the simplest way to start is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
What site paperwork can you provide?
We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with five million pounds of public liability insurance.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
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 sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The size and state of each joint
- How much existing material needs removing
- Travel to remote or island sites
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.
Sending details for a quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Access details, including height
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
For a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. You can also send details through our quote form.
Signs you need commercial sealant contractors in Petersham
A split down the middle of the bead tells a different story. Usually the movement was too much for the sealant chosen because the bead was too thin, the joint over-stretched or the movement class wrong. Replacing it like for like rarely holds, so width, depth and product are checked before we quote.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks
- Damp patches where an external joint has failed
- Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
- Hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations
If you have premises on more than one site, say at St. George's Industrial Estate and Newmans Shipyard & Business Park, one contractor and one quote can cover both.
What to look for in a quote
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Who will actually carry out the work
- What site paperwork they can supply
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?

Contractor rules in London buildings can be strict, with inductions, permits and timed loading all normal. We fit into those systems and phase the work so the building keeps operating.
