Should maintenance staff do it?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.

FAQs: Upper Upnor
Is Upper Upnor too far out for you?
No. Places such as Upper Upnor are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Will our hotel in Upper Upnor need to close for the work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. Tell us your quiet periods and access windows and we will plan around them.
Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?
We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is disturbed. Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
What site paperwork can you provide?
Send your site requirements with the enquiry, and the paperwork is confirmed with the quote. For older buildings we will ask for the asbestos register, plus your site induction rules.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Signs you need commercial sealant contractors in Upper Upnor
Every sealant joint is a maintenance item. How long one lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure to sun and weather, the cleaning regime, the traffic and the product itself. In commercial buildings those factors tend to act together.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down
- Leaks that seem to come through a sealant line
- Frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away
- Sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy
For a hotel such as King Charles Hotel, 1.2 miles south-east of Upper Upnor, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- What site paperwork they can supply

What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Leaking roofs, gutters or flat-roof membranes (those need a roofer)
- Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- Washrooms and tea points
- External facade joints
- Floor and threshold joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
Why deal with it now?
It can be tempting to hold sealant work back until the next refurbishment. For internal joints that are only cosmetic, that can make sense, but external and wet-area joints that already leak shouldn’t wait. Splitting the scope into now and later is often the sensible compromise. For buildings around smaller places like Upper Upnor, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

What else we do in Upper Upnor
How the quote is worked out
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- How much existing material needs removing
- How much there is to seal
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Travel to remote or island sites
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
What we need to price the job
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
To get a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.
