If you’re dealing with frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall and sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy, we can put it right.

Multi-site clients with buildings in and around Thames View Estate can put several sites on one programme, so standards and paperwork match across every site.
In London, most commercial sealant work happens in buildings that stay open: occupied offices, ground-floor retail under residential floors and busy shared entrances. We plan the joints floor by floor or unit by unit with the building manager, so areas stay in use.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Work for main contractors and building owners
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
What Thames View Estate’s businesses ask us to seal
Thames View Estate has five care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Care settings have kitchens, lounges and corridors where joints need to be neat and easy to clean, often in colours that suit the décor. Contractor rules in London buildings can be strict, with inductions, permits and timed loading all normal. Our planning starts from those rules rather than working round them later.
For premises near Barking Riverside station, which lies south-east of Thames View Estate, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading. Occupiers with premises at both Barking Business Centre and Lyon Business Park could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.

Cost factors for sealant joints
These are the things that shape the price:
- Access and working height
- Working within restricted access windows
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Before you send an enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Any specification or named product
For a fixed quote, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the site address and an outline of the work. You can also send details through our quote form.
How a job runs
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes a few hours to several days on most single sites, depending on joint lengths and access, and we clear our waste as we work. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Thames View Estate can be scarce. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.
- You send photographs, drawings or a list of the joints and areas involved.
- We work out why the joints have failed and fix a quote for the agreed scope.
- Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
- We strip the failed bead and prepare both faces of the joint.
- Backing and primer go in where needed, then the chosen sealant is applied and tooled.
- We walk the completed areas with you and sign them off under the 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Point out any areas we must not close
Ask for a quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Advice
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- Walls or slabs moving more than any sealant can take
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work in Thames View Estate
- External facade joints
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- Washrooms and tea points
- Floor and threshold joints
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Window and door perimeters
What we’re called out for in Thames View Estate
Resealing over the top is a false economy we come across often. New silicone has nothing to key into, so the top layer lifts, holds water and hides what’s going on. By the time it shows, there can be two or three layers to cut out.
Look out for the following:
- Damp patches where an external joint has failed
- Wall and floor joints that have lost their seal
- A top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting
- Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
Units at places like Gallions Reach Shopping Park, 1.5 miles south-west of Thames View Estate, are refitted as brands change, and the joints have to suit each new scheme.
Before you book anyone
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Proof of insurance
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
After the work
For the best life from the joints:
- Check the asbestos register before anyone disturbs old sealant in an older building
- Check sealant as part of routine building inspections
- Log reseals in the O&M or maintenance records
- Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
Later works are the usual way new joints get damaged. Shop refits, new services and replaced fittings often break the seal around them, and it’s easy to forget to reseal afterwards. Where work has disturbed a joint, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email for a quote.
Sealant rarely fails all at once across a building. The first failures are often a warning about the rest so the whole run is worth inspecting. We can assess the lot and suggest what to do now and later.
Common questions from Thames View Estate clients
Is Barking Business Centre, near Thames View Estate, within your area?
Yes, sites like Barking Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Thames View Estate. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Will our hotel in Thames View Estate need to close for the work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Is your work guaranteed?
Each job sits under our 12-month guarantee. Looking after the joints as we advise helps them last.
How do you keep disruption to occupiers down?
Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Is failed sealant stripped out, or sealed over?
Every failed bead is cut out completely. Laying new silicone on old gives it nothing to grip.
