How a job runs
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. Rural sites near Stowting Common may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- First, details come to us: photographs, drawings or a schedule of the areas, or we arrange a site visit.
- The failure is diagnosed and a fixed quote issued for the work agreed.
- Site hours, access windows and the order of areas are agreed before we start.
- Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
- Backing and primer go in where needed, then the chosen sealant is applied and tooled.
- Finished joints are checked with you and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Advice
Common problems we fix in Stowting Common
The wrong sealant in the wrong place is a common cause of early failure. Painters’ acrylic in a moving joint, vinegar-smelling silicone on metal or natural stone, or a high-modulus product where a low-modulus one was needed all let go sooner than they should. Guidance such as BS 6213 exists to steer sealant selection for exactly this reason.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall
- Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
- Wall and floor joints that have lost their seal
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
Shops and cafés around stations like Westenhanger station, 3.7 miles to the south of Stowting Common, trade from early, so work is timed around them.
Before you book anyone
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Keep washroom and kitchen extraction working
- Report cracked or peeling sealant early
- Look at the sealant around anything that has been moved or replaced
- Log reseals in the O&M or maintenance records
Keep an eye out for other trades after we’ve gone. 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 email drawings and photos and we will price putting it right.
Once sealant fails in a movement joint, grit and debris get in. The joint can no longer close, so its edges crack or spall. At that point it’s a repair job rather than a reseal.
What happens if it’s left?
Patching the worst lengths can be the right call on a tight budget. If the rest of the bead is the same age and product, though, it’s normally close behind. Where it helps, we quote a patch and a full reseal side by side. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Stowting Common, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

Honest limits
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
- Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Stowting Common: questions and answers
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Stowting Common?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Stowting Common?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we will confirm it with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.
Do you work directly for building managers?
Yes. You can send details through our quote form.
Can areas stay open during the work?
It’s normal for us to work in occupied buildings. Only the area being sealed is closed, and the sequence is agreed in advance, until its cure time has passed.
How do we get a quote?
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are normally enough to start. If a visit is needed we will book one, and a fixed quote follows.
Is the old sealant taken out first?
Removal comes first, every time. Then the joint is cleaned, primed where the maker specifies, backed to depth and resealed.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
