Our commercial sealant contractors service in ML1
How long a joint lasts is decided before any sealant leaves the gun. Old silicone gives new sealant nothing to grip, so every trace of it is removed and the faces are cleaned until they’re sound and dry, with no dust or grease left. Where the sealant maker specifies a primer for that substrate, it goes on before the new bead and the joint depth is controlled with backing rod. Most enquiries involve shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks and messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down, across movement joints in walls and floors, window and door perimeters and external facade joints.
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before we move to the next.
- First, details reach us through the quote form or a site visit.
- The cause is diagnosed and the scope priced as a fixed quote.
- Where parts of the building must stay open, the work is phased.
- Every failed bead is removed rather than covered.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.

Commercial sealant contractors across ML1: the area picture
Shop fits, office refurbishments and hotel refits in towns such as Motherwell, Wishaw and Holytown all leave joints that need sealing. Visible joints call for a matched colour and a clean tooled finish.
Across ML1, outside sealant work is planned around the weather, with a little give in the programme for wet or frosty days.
Motherwell: Refits at hotels like Bentley Hotel (0.6 miles south-west of Motherwell) bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day. A business with units at Braidhurst Industrial Estate and Orbiston Business Park needn’t use two contractors for its sealant.
Doing it in-house
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
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’ll confirm them with the quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- A dripping trap, valve or pipe behind a fitting
- Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
- A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane
What we are called out for in ML1
The wrong sealant in the wrong place is a common cause of early failure. Painters’ acrylic in a moving joint, vinegar-smelling silicone on metal or natural stone, or a high-modulus product where a low-modulus one was needed. BS 6213 gives guidance on choosing construction sealants, and many specifications refer to it.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Damp patches where an external joint has failed
- Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
- Weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes
- Wall and floor joints that have lost their seal
Different surfaces, different methods
Movement joints in walls and floors
Floor joints that take trolleys or forklifts need a tougher filler or sealant. We will recommend the right filler or sealant for the traffic and movement.
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.
Your questions answered
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
How do we get a quote?
Send photos, drawings or a list of locations. If a visit is needed we’ll book one, and a fixed quote follows.
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.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Is ML1 in your area?
Yes. We cover ML1 and the rest of North Lanarkshire, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?
Yes. Use our quote form to send the site details, or phone or email us.
How soon can the area be used again?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
