For managing agents and facilities managers
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Commercial mastic work in Salters Heath
Failed sealant isn’t always the whole story. Water at a window perimeter might be coming from the frame, the cill or the wall behind, and repeated splits in a movement joint can mean the joint is too narrow for the movement. Part of the job is telling you when the fix is something other than sealant, so budgets go where they’ll do some good. Site teams most often ask us about wall and floor joints that have lost their seal and external beads that have gone brittle and cracked, across floor and threshold joints, washrooms and tea points and external facade joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Salters Heath, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
On a typical commercial building in Salters Heath, the joints that fail first are the hardest-worked ones: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.
Rural business units near smaller places such as Salters Heath are frequently converted agricultural buildings. Old masonry beside new aluminium, timber and plasterboard gives plenty of joints between materials that move differently, and a sealant colour that suits the building’s character is often part of the brief.

Common questions from Salters Heath clients
Is a smaller place like Salters Heath outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you work at a site such as Berry Court Business Park, by Salters Heath?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Salters Heath, Berry Court Business Park among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit typically takes anything from part of a day on a short run of joints to several weeks on a large phased package. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Is failed sealant stripped out, or sealed over?
Removal comes first, every time. Then the joint is cleaned, primed where the maker specifies, backed to depth and resealed.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. We are fully insured for public liability as well.
What the job involves on each surface
Movement joints in walls and floors
Floor joints that take trolleys or forklifts need a tougher filler or sealant. The choice comes down to how much the joint moves and what runs over it.
Fire-rated seals where specified
Intumescent and other fire-rated sealants go in at service penetrations and linear gaps to the maker’s tested details, where they are specified. The design and sign-off of fire stopping belong to the designer and building control.
Why deal with it now?
It can be tempting to hold sealant work back until the next refurbishment. For internal joints that are only cosmetic, that can make sense, but external and wet-area joints that already leak shouldn’t wait. Splitting the scope into now and later is often the sensible compromise. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Salters Heath, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

Common problems we fix in Salters Heath
Outside, sunlight and rain wear sealant down year after year. UV hardens the surface while wind and rain work at the edges, so beads chalk, stiffen and lose their stretch. A hardened bead can’t follow the building any more.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks
- Expansion joints with the sealant torn out
- Smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job
- External beads that have gone brittle and cracked
If you run an office at a site such as Berry Court Business Park, 0.9 miles north of Salters Heath, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?

Advice
Aftercare for building managers
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- On pre-2000 buildings, share the asbestos information before work starts
- Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
- Add sealant to the planned maintenance inspection list
- Have extract fans checked so wet areas dry out
Add the resealed joints to your planned maintenance inspections. A periodic look catches splits and lifting edges early, especially on exposed elevations and in washrooms. Should something look amiss, you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and send a picture.
Tenants and staff spot black or split sealant quickly, and it reflects on how the building is run. Planned replacement saves fielding the same complaint again and again.
