Commercial sealant contractors for businesses in Selham
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
On site: what to expect
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes as long as the agreed scope needs, from a single visit to a programme spread over several weeks, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. If others near Selham need work, visits can be combined. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- You send photographs, drawings or a list of the joints and areas involved, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
- We work out why the joints have failed and fix a quote for the agreed scope.
- 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.
- The depth is set, primer is used where the maker calls for it, and the fresh bead is applied and tooled.
- We walk the completed areas with you and sign them off under the 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Commercial sealant contractors in Selham, done properly
Sometimes a split bead is a symptom rather than the cause. A leak near a frame edge can start in the frame, the cill or the cavity. We look before we quote and tell you plainly if sealant won’t solve it, so budgets go where they’ll do some good. We work on external facade joints, window and door perimeters and kitchen worktops and splashbacks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are layers of sealant, all of them failing and expansion joints with the sealant torn out. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Selham is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
In Selham, as anywhere, the first joints to go are usually the ones that work hardest: frame perimeters in the sun, floor joints at doorways and anything that gets wet every day.
Rural business units near smaller places such as Selham are frequently converted agricultural buildings. Their mix of old walls with new frames, partitions and floors means many joints between unlike materials, and a sealant colour that suits the building’s character is often part of the brief.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Selham as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

What we can’t put right
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
- Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)
If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Commercial sealant contractors in Selham: the local picture
Selham lies roughly 44 miles out from central London. The commuter belt holds a great many offices, retail parks and business parks. If you have premises across the region, one contractor can cover them all. Rainfall across the South East, Selham included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, outside sealing waits for a dry joint, and cold, damp mornings can delay it.
For any commercial premises in Selham, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces.
Selham is about 8 miles south of Haslemere, in West Sussex. We send applicators to Selham for sealant joints. We work across 373 places in West Sussex. We also cover Portsmouth, some 21 miles away.

If your building is just outside Selham, we cover South Ambersham (1 mile west), River (2 miles north), Tillington (2 miles north-east), Upperton (2 miles north-east) and Rotherbridge (2 miles east).

Common questions from Selham clients
Is Selham too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Selham, such as Hampers Common Industrial Estate?
Yes. Our area takes in Selham and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Hampers Common Industrial Estate included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership and carry five million pounds of public liability insurance.
Do you take on multi-site sealant work?
Yes, within the areas we cover: South East England, Greater London and Scotland. Each site gets the same process and a single contact.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Do you work directly for building managers?
Yes. You send the details, we return a fixed quote, and the job is done and signed off.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Don’t let cleaning or traffic back on before the cure time is up
- Deal with small splits before they become leaks
- Have extract fans checked so wet areas dry out
- Check sealant as part of routine building inspections
New joints need their full cure time before they take water, cleaning or traffic. That time depends on the product, the temperature and the joint depth, and we confirm it when each area is handed back. Leaving the area closed until then keeps the bead neat.
In kitchens and washrooms, a failed joint is a cleaning problem as well as a leak risk. Environmental health officers look at how cleanable surfaces are, which makes sound joints worth keeping on top of.
Surface by surface
Movement joints in walls and floors
A trafficked floor joint needs a different product from a wall joint. The choice comes down to how much the joint moves and what runs over it.
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.
Do you need commercial sealant contractors in Selham?
Resealing over the top is a false economy we come across often. New silicone has nothing to key into so it soon peels and traps moisture against the joint. By the time it shows, there can be two or three layers to cut out.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Movement joints packed with grit and debris
- A top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting
- Smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job
- Damp patches where an external joint has failed
Trade counters and showrooms on estates such as Hampers Common Industrial Estate (to the east of Selham) need neat joints where customers see them.
What your quote should include
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Their public liability cover
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
