About our commercial sealant contractors in Shenfield
If you look after more than one building, a single sealant contractor saves a lot of chasing. We take on one-off reseals, runs of jobs across a portfolio and planned maintenance programmes, run the same way on every site: details in, a fixed quote back, the sealing done, then our 12-month guarantee. For sites in Shenfield, the quickest start is to phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a list of addresses. Most enquiries involve layers of sealant, all of them failing and hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations, on movement joints in walls and floors, floor and threshold joints and window and door perimeters. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Shenfield, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In Shenfield, as anywhere, the first joints to go are normally the ones that work hardest: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.
Around smaller places such as Shenfield, small firms often work from converted barns, yards and rural units. Those conversions put new frames and partitions against old brick, stone or timber, so each joint needs a product chosen for both surfaces.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Questions we’re asked in Shenfield
Is Warley Hill Business Park, near Shenfield, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Shenfield, Warley Hill Business Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can the sealant on our Shenfield premises match the finishes?
Yes, we can typically get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?
Some older mastics did contain asbestos. So we check the register first and stop work on anything suspect until it’s tested. HSE guidance on asbestos is a useful reference.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
What do you need from us to quote?
The main factors are metres of joint, removal, access, the product and how many phases there are. To get a fixed price, send details through our quote form, or phone or email us.
Owners, agents and contractors
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Different surfaces, different methods
Fire-rated seals where specified
Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the product’s tested detail. The design and sign-off of fire stopping belong to the designer and building control; we install what’s specified.
Washrooms and toilets
Washroom joints take water, cleaning chemicals and constant use. Old sealant comes out and a sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in.

Advice
Why act early in Shenfield
A cheaper quote sometimes means the old bead stays in. New sealant laid on old silicone has nothing to bond to, so it peels. Every quote we give includes full removal and preparation, which is where the lasting value is. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Quoting for work in Shenfield
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Which sealant the job calls for
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Any specification or named product
- When you need the work done
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
