Commercial sealant contractors in Stratfield Mortimer
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. Anything suspect is left alone until it has been tested, and we don’t remove asbestos-containing materials ourselves. Site teams most often ask us about messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down and damp patches where an external joint has failed, across floor and threshold joints, movement joints in walls and floors and external facade joints. Most enquiries from Stratfield Mortimer start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
On a typical commercial building in Stratfield Mortimer, the joints that fail first are the hardest-worked ones: south-facing perimeters, entrance thresholds and busy washrooms.
Commercial sealant work around smaller places like Stratfield Mortimer tends to mean pubs and restaurants, halls, farm shops and offices in converted farm buildings. Kitchens, toilets and window frames in all of them need resealing sooner or later.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

- A dripping trap, valve or pipe behind a fitting

What the job involves on each surface
Facade and cladding joints
Facade joints move every day as panels warm and cool. The product has to suit the movement, and the depth has to be controlled with backing. We confirm the access in place before we quote.
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.
Questions about Stratfield Mortimer

We’ll confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Is a smaller place like Stratfield Mortimer outside your area?
No. Places such as Stratfield Mortimer are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
What do you need from us to quote?
Send photographs, drawings or a list of locations through our quote form. If a visit is needed we’ll book one, and a fixed quote follows.
What about asbestos in old mastic?
It’s possible in older buildings, especially those built before 2000. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before disturbing old sealant, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Do you take on multi-site sealant work?
Yes. We take on runs of jobs across portfolios as well as single sites, quoted per building or as a package.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes a few hours to several days on most single sites, depending on joint lengths and access. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Work for main contractors and building owners
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Stratfield Mortimer. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Maintenance after handover
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Check sealant as part of routine building inspections
- Keep washroom and kitchen extraction working
- Keep a record of which joints were resealed and when
- Look at the sealant around anything that has been moved or replaced
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, so we confirm it for each area at handover. Leaving the area closed until then keeps the bead neat.
Sealant rarely fails all at once across a building. A few splits this year normally mean more next year so the whole run is worth inspecting. We can assess the lot and suggest what to do now and later.
