Commercial sealant contractors in CM12: how it works
On older buildings, particularly those put up before 2000, some old mastics and sealants may contain asbestos. Before anything is cut out, we ask for the asbestos register or survey. Anything suspect is left alone until it has been tested, and we don’t remove asbestos-containing materials ourselves. We work on washrooms and tea points, window and door perimeters and floor and threshold joints, and what we’re called in for most is shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks and movement joints packed with grit and debris.
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. 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.
- Site photographs, drawings or a visit tell us what’s there and how it has failed.
- A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
- Sequence, access and working times are settled before the first joint is touched.
- Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
- Depth is set with backing, then the sealant is applied, tooled and the area tidied.
- Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.

Around Billericay
Around Billericay, our work takes us to commercial buildings near The Railway pub, Church of St Mary Magdalene and The Billericay School. Other local landmarks include Sunnymede Junior School (0.6 miles south-east) and Lake Meadows (0.5 miles north-west). Billericay has its own railway station: Billericay station. Well-known places in the area include Mayflower Community Hospital (0.9 miles south-west) and Barleylands Farm Museum (2.1 miles south-east). The countryside around Billericay includes Norsey Wood.
Commercial sealant contractors across CM12: the area picture
From Billericay, Steeple View and Noak Hill outwards, CM12 has a broad spread of commercial premises: shops, offices, hotels, restaurants and units. We cover the whole area, so occupiers with several sites can use one contractor and one point of contact.
All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and much of the South East is within easy reach of the capital, so jobs in CM12 are planned with access, loading and parking in mind.
Billericay: Premises within reach of Billericay station, less than half a mile to the west of Billericay, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing. Whatever the building in Billericay, commercial sealant work starts with cutting out the failed bead and cleaning the joint back to sound material.
Quoting for work in CM12
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How accessible the joints are
A quote for sealant joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- When you need the work done
- Access details, including height
To get a fixed quote, speak to us on 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.
After the work
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Keep washroom and kitchen extraction working
- Keep abrasive pads and scrapers off resealed joints
- On pre-2000 buildings, share the asbestos information before work starts
- Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
Put sealant on the planned maintenance checklist. A periodic look catches splits and lifting edges early, with external elevations and wet areas first in line. Should something look amiss, you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and send a picture.
Sealant installed at the same time typically fails in sequence. A few splits this year normally mean more next year so the whole run is worth inspecting. We’ll tell you which sealant joints need doing first and which can wait.
Should maintenance staff do it?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
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.
Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters
The perimeter joint between a frame and the structure keeps rain out of the reveal. We remove the old seal, prepare the faces, fit backing where needed and seal again with a product chosen for both the frame and the wall.
Fire-rated seals where specified
Intumescent and other fire-rated sealants go in at service penetrations and linear gaps to the maker’s tested details, where they are specified. Fire-stopping design and sign-off sit with the designer, fire engineer or building control; we install what’s specified.
Common questions from CM12 clients
What site paperwork can you provide?
Send your site requirements with the enquiry. For older buildings we’ll ask for the asbestos register, plus your site induction rules.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Is your work guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers the workmanship. Looking after the joints as we advise helps them last.
Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?
It’s possible in older buildings, especially those built before 2000. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before disturbing old sealant, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
How soon can the area be used again?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
