Need commercial sealant contractors in Strood?

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

From enquiry to sign-off

We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we are cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. Smaller jobs around Strood can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. We start with the evidence: photographs, drawings or a look on site.
  2. A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
  3. We agree the order of work, access windows and site hours with you.
  4. Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
  5. Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
  6. We hand back each area with its cure time and our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Send your site hours and access windows

Advice

How we handle commercial sealant contractors in Strood

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 kitchen worktops and splashbacks, window and door perimeters and external facade joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall and expansion joints with the sealant torn out. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Strood it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

In an occupied building in Strood, the job is planned so areas stay in use: we agree the order with you and hand back each area with its cure time.

Work in smaller places such as Strood tends to come one building at a time: a pub kitchen, a hall, a small office. We plan the visit so everything on the list is done in one go, with the right products and colours on hand.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Aftercare for building managers

For the best life from the joints:

  • Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
  • Log reseals in the O&M or maintenance records
  • Act on the first lifting edges rather than waiting
  • Ask fit-out and M&E contractors to report any sealant they disturb

Let your cleaning contractor know what’s new. Scourers, blades and harsh products shorten a bead’s life, while a neutral cleaner and a soft cloth do no harm.

Sealant rarely fails all at once across a building. A few splits this year normally mean more next year, so it makes sense to look at the wider elevation or block. We can assess the lot and suggest what to do now and later.

Cost factors for sealant joints

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:

  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Any access equipment needed
  • The product specified
  • How much existing material needs removing

A quote for sealant joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Call for a quote.

Sending details for a quote

However big the job, the same details help:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to call 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Owners, agents and contractors

Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.

Why deal with it now?

Some managers wait for a fit-out before touching the mastic. That’s reasonable for internal joints that are just tired-looking, but a joint letting water in now keeps doing damage until the refurb arrives. Splitting the scope into now and later is often the sensible compromise. For buildings around smaller places like Strood, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.

Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

How the job changes by surface

Commercial kitchens and tea points

Kitchen joints along worktops, sinks, splashbacks and wall cladding collect grease and moisture. They’re degreased thoroughly before resealing, with a food-safe or hygienic product wherever food contact can happen.

Washrooms and toilets

Around WCs, urinals, vanity tops, IPS panels and cubicles, sealant is wet most of the day. Old sealant comes out and a sanitary silicone with anti-mould additives goes in, phasing the rooms so not every toilet is closed at once.

Sealant on show in Strood’s commercial buildings

Two named trading, business or retail sites lie within about 3 miles of Strood. Each new occupier on a park like these tends to refit, from reception to staff kitchen, often in a colour the occupier specifies. There are a number of hotels within about 2 miles of Strood. Refits in hotels bring joints at vanity tops, bar counters and reception desks where the colour has to suit the scheme, and the work can be phased so the rest of the hotel keeps trading.

If you run an office at a site such as Business Park (1.4 miles north of Strood), the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out. In hotels such as Bull Hotel, 1 mile south-west of Strood, refurbishments typically mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes. Occupiers with premises at both Business Park and Pickhill Business Centre could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.

Strood: questions and answers

Is Business Park, near Strood, within your area?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Strood, Business Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Is Strood too small for you to travel to?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

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. For a fixed quote, send details through our quote form.

Who decides which product is used?

The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

Will the building have to shut during the work?

Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.

Can you handle sealant work across several sites?

Yes. We regularly take on multi-site work and planned maintenance programmes, priced site by site or as one programme.

Which site documents can you send us?

We confirm documents at quote stage: RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details are the usual requests. Every applicator holds a CSCS card.
