Sealant specialists in Sompting
On older buildings, particularly those put up before 2000, some old mastics and sealants may contain asbestos. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before old sealant is disturbed, because the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder. If a material is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We work on window and door perimeters, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and external facade joints, and what we’re called in for most is shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks and messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Sompting, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
If you look after more than one building near Sompting, the work can be planned as one programme, with one quote format and one point of contact.
In a smaller place such as Sompting, commercial buildings are typically a mix of shops, a pub or café, a school, a surgery and perhaps a few business units. They’re not big jobs one by one, but their joints need the same preparation as anywhere.

FAQs: Sompting
Is Sompting too far out for you?
Not at all. Sompting is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Does a hotel in Sompting need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Can you handle sealant work across several sites?
Yes. We regularly take on multi-site work and planned maintenance programmes, quoted per building or as a package.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
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.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Leave it or put it right?
Some low prices are low because nothing gets cut out. Sealing over looks tidy at handover, then lifts once the joint starts moving. Our prices always include removal of the failed bead and full joint preparation, because that’s what makes the new bead last. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Deal with small splits before they become leaks
- On pre-2000 buildings, share the asbestos information before work starts
- Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
- Put external and wet-area joints on a regular inspection round
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details with your O&M or maintenance records.
In kitchens and washrooms, a failed joint is a cleaning problem as well as a leak risk. Cleanability is something environmental health officers pay attention to, which makes sound joints worth keeping on top of.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Commercial sealant contractors around Sompting: what changes locally
With the shore within about 2 miles, Sompting counts as a coastal location. Buildings near the sea put their external joints through more driven rain, with salt air nearer the beach. We choose a product rated for the exposure, then confirm the colours available for it. The 3 miles around Sompting take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Each new occupier on a park like these tends to refit, from reception to staff kitchen; brand colours often come into it.
A business with units at Rectory Farm Road Business Park and Lancing Business Park needn’t use two contractors for its sealant. If you run an office at a site such as Rectory Farm Road Business Park, under half a mile north of Sompting, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out. In hotels such as Beach Green Hotel, which lies south-east of Sompting, refurbishments usually mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes.
