Our commercial sealant contractors service in HP18
On a commercial site, sealant turns up in more places than people expect: around sanitaryware, along worktops and splashbacks, at window boards, partition heads and floor junctions. Outside, it closes facade joints, frame perimeters and movement joints against the weather. Our applicators work on both the inside and the outside of the building, picking the product for each location rather than one tube for everything. We work on movement joints in walls and floors, external facade joints and washrooms and tea points, and the failures we are asked to look at most are sanitary sealant that has gone black and patchy and frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall.
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts.
- Site photos, drawings or a visit tell us what’s there and how it has failed.
- A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
- We agree the order of work, access windows and site hours with you.
- The failed sealant comes out and the faces are prepared, with primer where required.
- Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
- Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.
What affects the price in HP18
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Why appoint us
- Specification-led, product-correct work
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
Quotes
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Around Long Crendon
We work on buildings around The Eight Bells Public House, Long Crendon School and Church of St Mary. For rail, the closest station is Haddenham & Thame Parkway station, roughly 2.3 miles east of the centre. Nearby you will also find Dinton Castle (4.7 miles east) and Thame Community Hospital (2.4 miles south-east). The countryside around Long Crendon includes Snakemoor.
Shops, offices and hotels in HP18
Shop fits, office refurbishments and hotel refits in towns such as Aylesbury, Haydon Hill and Long Crendon all leave joints that need sealing. Visible joints call for a matched colour and a clean tooled finish.
The South East has large numbers of business parks and industrial estates, especially around the motorway corridors, and we cover HP18 along with the rest of the region.
Long Crendon: Trade counters and showrooms on estates such as Crendon Industrial Estate, 0.9 miles south-east of Long Crendon, need neat joints where clients see them. If you have premises on more than one site, say at Crendon Industrial Estate and Christmas Hill Business Park, one contractor and one quote can cover both.
What we are called out for in HP18
Washrooms and kitchens wear sealant out in their own way. Constant moisture, cleaning chemicals and weak extraction let mould grow into the sealant, and once established it rarely cleans out. Replacement with a sanitary anti-mould silicone is the lasting answer.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down
- Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
- Earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
- A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane
- Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
Why act early?
Putting off a reseal normally moves the cost rather than avoiding it. Once water gets behind the seal, finishes and ceilings underneath are next, and the bill then involves other trades. Dealing with it while the damage stops at the bead is the cheaper route.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
For managing agents and facilities managers
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Quoting for work in HP18
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Access and working height
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The product specified
- The site’s rules and procedures
Pricing sealant joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Details that help us quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Any dates the work must fit around
- The site address and postcode
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Common questions from HP18 clients
Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?
Yes. You send the details, we return a fixed quote, and the job is done and signed off.
How is commercial sealant work priced?
Send what you have, even a few photographs and rough lengths. We follow up with questions or a visit where needed, then a fixed 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.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?
On older buildings, our first request is the asbestos survey. Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.
