Our commercial sealant contractors service in BN7
Having a single contact for all your sites makes sealant far simpler to manage. Single jobs, multi-site packages and planned programmes all come to us, handled with the same process each time: details in, a fixed quote back, the sealing done, then our 12-month guarantee. For sites in BN7, the quickest start is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a list of addresses. The enquiries we see most involve a top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting and damp patches where an external joint has failed, on window and door perimeters, floor and threshold joints and movement joints in walls and floors.
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off.
- Send details through our quote form, or ask for a site visit.
- We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
- Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
- Every failed bead is removed rather than covered.
- A suitable product for each joint goes in at the right depth and is tooled.
- We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.

Local landmarks in Lewes
In Lewes, that means premises near Priory School, Railway Land and Elephant and Castle pub and the streets around them. You’ll also find Church of St John sub Castro (under half a mile east), St Pancras Catholic Primary School (under half a mile south-west) and Lewes Old Grammar School (under half a mile south). The nearest railway station is Lewes station, roughly 0.6 miles south-east.

Where commercial joints are in BN7
Across BN7, from Lewes, Telscombe and South Malling to the smaller places between, commercial buildings run from high-street shops and offices to hotels, schools and business parks. We cover the whole area, so occupiers with several sites can use one contractor and one point of contact, with colours matched site to site where the brand needs it.
We work across Greater London and the South East counties, and every job in BN7 starts with access, parking and site rules.
Lewes: Shops and cafés around stations like Lewes station, 0.6 miles south-east of Lewes, trade from early, so work is timed around them. A unit on an estate like Riverside Industrial Estate, less than half a mile to the east of Lewes, typically has an office front, a trade counter and staff facilities with joints of their own.
What sealant work can’t fix
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Broken glass or blown double-glazed units
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
- Suspect materials that need testing and specialist removal
What sets the cost
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Any access equipment needed
- The total length or number of joints
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Working within restricted access windows
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
What to include in your enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Any specification or named product
- What the building is and how it’s used
- The postcode of the building
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or email us to discuss it first.
Surface by surface
Washrooms and toilets
Black sealant in a toilet block is normally beyond cleaning. The lasting answer is removal, preparation and a new sanitary bead.
Movement joints in walls and floors
Movement joints in walls and floors let the structure expand and contract. When the seal fails, debris gets in and the joint stops working. The joints are resealed using a sealant matched to the movement and any traffic.
Why act early?
Some low prices are low because nothing gets cut out. Sealing over looks tidy at handover, then lifts once the joint starts moving. Our prices always include removal of the failed bead and full joint preparation, because that’s what makes the new bead last.
What your quote should include
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
Owners, agents and contractors
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites around BN7. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Questions about BN7
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, and the faces are brought back to sound, dry material before resealing.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. Should a joint we sealed give trouble during those 12 months, let us know and we’ll look at it.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
How is commercial sealant work priced?
Send photographs, drawings or a list of locations through the quote form on this site. Where we need to see it, we will arrange a site visit, then send a fixed quote.
Can you handle sealant work across several sites?
Yes. Send a list of addresses and what’s needed at each, and fixed prices follow, with a suggested sequence.
Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Send your site requirements with the enquiry, and the paperwork is confirmed with the quote. For older buildings we’ll ask for the asbestos register, plus your site induction rules.
