Commercial sealant contractors in BN43: how it works
If you look after more than one building, a single sealant contractor saves a lot of chasing. Single jobs, multi-site packages and planned programmes all come to us: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and a 12-month guarantee once it’s signed off. To get a programme moving in BN43, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the site addresses. We work on window and door perimeters, external facade joints and floor and threshold joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off and damp patches where an external joint has failed.
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area.
- First, details come to us: photos, drawings or a schedule of the areas, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
- Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
- Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
- We strip the failed bead and prepare both faces of the joint.
- The depth is set, primer is used where the maker calls for it, and the fresh bead is applied and tooled.
- Each area is inspected, signed off and backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Commercial sealant contractors across BN43: the area picture
Commercial buildings across BN43 range from older premises altered many times to recent units on business parks. Each building needs the right product for its surfaces, from stone and brick to coated aluminium and laminate.
The South East has large numbers of business parks and industrial estates, especially around the motorway corridors, and we cover BN43 along with the rest of the region. Along the coast in BN43, hospitality buildings tend to be busiest in the summer months, which makes the quieter months a good time for sealant work.
Shoreham-by-Sea: Shops and cafés around stations like Shoreham-By-Sea station, less than half a mile to the south-west of Shoreham-by-Sea, trade from early, so work is timed around them. Occupiers with premises at both Dolphin Industrial Estate and Grange Industrial Estate could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.
What affects the price in BN43
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The total length or number of joints
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
What to include in your enquiry
However big the job, the same details help:
- Your programme or deadline
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The site address and postcode
- What the building is and how it’s used
For a fixed quote, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the site address and an outline of the work. Our quote form is another easy route.
Surface by surface
Movement joints in walls and floors
Brickwork, blockwork and floor slabs all have movement joints that need a flexible seal. When the seal fails, debris gets in and the joint stops working. The new sealant is chosen for the movement and, on floors, the traffic.
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, and we install to the specification.
Honest limits
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
For managing agents and facilities managers
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
After the work
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
- Brief cleaning contractors to avoid scourers and blades on sealant
- Make sure contractors see the asbestos survey before cutting out old mastic
- Deal with small splits before they become leaks
We stand behind the workmanship with a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details with your O&M or maintenance records.
Sealant installed at the same time normally fails in sequence. A few splits this year usually 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.
Your questions answered
What site paperwork can you provide?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership and carry five million pounds of public liability insurance.
Do you take on multi-site sealant work?
Yes. We regularly take on multi-site work and planned maintenance programmes, priced site by site or as one programme.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
How do we get a quote?
Send what you have, even a few photos and rough lengths. We follow up with questions or a visit where needed.
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.
What about asbestos in old mastic?
It’s possible in older buildings, especially those built before 2000. Before cutting anything out, we ask for the asbestos register or survey, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
