Sealant on show in Puttenham’s commercial buildings

Puttenham has two named business or industrial parks inside a 3-mile radius. Tenant changes on such sites bring fit-outs, and fit-outs bring new joints, often in a colour the occupier specifies. Puttenham is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. That helps, but frost and condensation on glass and coated frames still stop outside sealing on some winter mornings.

Premises within reach of Wanborough station, 1.6 miles north of Puttenham, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing. Sites a few miles apart, such as Wanborough Business Centre and Manor Farm Business Centre, can share one programme and one point of contact.

Puttenham is about 4 miles south-east of Aldershot, in Surrey. Our applicators travel to Puttenham for work on sealant joints. Puttenham is one of 379 places we cover in Surrey for sealant joints. For work in that direction, see our Reading page.

Work on sealant joints is covered throughout GU3, whatever the building. Buildings on The Street, Dark Lane and Hops End are within our area for sealant joints. We also cover Wanborough (1 mile north-east), Christmas Pie (1 mile north), Flexford (1 mile north), Shackleford (2 miles south) and Compton (2 miles east) for sealant joints. Further afield, our area takes in Guildford (5 miles east), Woking (8 miles north-east), Camberley (8 miles north), Farnham (5 miles west), Egham (15 miles north) and Dorking (15 miles east).

Commercial sealant contractors for commercial buildings in Puttenham

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. We look before we quote and tell you plainly if sealant won’t solve it, so budgets go where they’ll do some good. Most enquiries involve hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations and shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks, on movement joints in walls and floors, washrooms and tea points and external facade joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Puttenham first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.

In Puttenham, as anywhere, the first joints to go are normally the ones that work hardest: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.

In and around smaller places such as Puttenham, the commercial buildings we are asked about are often pubs, shops, village halls and barns converted to offices. Kitchens, toilets and window frames in all of them need resealing sooner or later.

Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

What sealant work can’t fix

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Leaking roofs, gutters or flat-roof membranes (those need a roofer)
  • Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
  • Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)

If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

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

Leave it or put it right?

Sealant is often treated as an afterthought by the trade that fitted the element. Choosing the product, setting the depth and preparing the faces are what a specialist brings, the three things that decide how long a joint lasts. It shows over the following seasons rather than at handover. Converted and older buildings near places like Puttenham tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Puttenham: questions and answers

Will you take on work at estates like Wanborough Business Centre, close to Puttenham?

Yes. We cover Puttenham and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Wanborough Business Centre. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Is Puttenham too small for you to travel to?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

How do you keep disruption to occupiers down?

It’s mostly about sequence: areas are phased, access windows agreed and enough washrooms or entrances left in use. Let us know what can’t close and we will work around it.

Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?

Yes. Use our quote form to send the site details, or phone or email us, and we will confirm any paperwork you need with the quote.

How long does a typical visit take?

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’ll give you a timescale with the quote.

Is the old sealant taken out first?

Removal of the failed sealant is always part of the job. Laying new silicone on old gives it nothing to grip; the faces are then cleaned and prepared.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.

From enquiry to sign-off

Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Jobs in and around smaller places like Puttenham are normally planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. We start with the evidence: photos, drawings or a look on site.
  2. You get a fixed quote covering removal, preparation and the new sealant.
  3. Sequence, access and working times are settled before the first joint is touched.
  4. Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
  5. Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
  6. Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Point out any areas we must not close
  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Request a quote

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Work for main contractors and building owners

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Puttenham can form part of a wider programme.

Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around Puttenham. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.

Signs you need commercial sealant contractors in Puttenham

When a bead peels cleanly off one face, it has failed in adhesion. The usual causes are poor preparation, a missed primer, contamination on the joint face or sealant bonded to the base of the joint. We see it often where joints were sealed in a hurry.

Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:

  • Untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby
  • Hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations
  • Greasy, split joints in a kitchen or tea point
  • Frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall

If you run an office at a site such as Wanborough Business Centre, 1.7 miles to the north-east of Puttenham, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out.

What your quote should include

  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Their public liability cover

How to choose a sealant contractor

Looking after the joints

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Report cracked or peeling sealant early
  • Respect the cure time before reopening an area
  • Check the asbestos register before anyone disturbs old sealant in an older building
  • Keep abrasive pads and scrapers off resealed joints

Later works are the usual way new joints get damaged. Shop refits, new services and replaced fittings often break the seal around them, and it’s easy to forget to reseal afterwards. If that happens, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will price putting it right.

Movement joints that fill with debris stop working. With nothing soft to close against, the materials either side take the load and start to break up. That turns a sealant job into something bigger.
