Our commercial sealant contractors service in N15

Inside a commercial building, sealant does a lot of quiet work: washroom fittings, kitchen worktops, window boards, partition heads and the line where floors meet walls. 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. We work on movement joints in walls and floors, floor and threshold joints and external facade joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall and black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off.

Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area.

  1. First, details come to us: photos, drawings or a schedule of the areas.
  2. Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
  3. Site hours, access windows and the order of areas are agreed before we start.
  4. The failed bead is removed and the joint faces cleaned until they’re sound and dry.
  5. The depth is set, primer is used where the maker calls for it, and the fresh bead is applied and tooled.
  6. Each area is inspected, signed off and backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Commercial sealant contractors across N15: the area picture

In N15, much commercial sealant work follows refits in shops, offices and hotels in places such as Tottenham, Tottenham Green and South Tottenham. Where the joint is on show, a colour that suits the finish is part of the job.

London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, though outside work in N15 still waits for dry faces, and cold mornings bring frost and condensation on steel and glass.

Tottenham Green: Units at retail parks like Tottenham Hale Retail Park (to the east of Tottenham Green) change hands and get refitted, with new joints at every frontage. Occupiers with premises at both Tottenham Hale Retail Park and Lockwood Industrial Park could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.

Should maintenance staff do it?

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Different surfaces, different methods

Commercial kitchens and tea points

Kitchen joints along worktops, sinks, splashbacks and wall cladding collect grease and moisture. They’re degreased thoroughly before resealing, with a food-safe or hygienic product wherever food contact can happen.

Shop fronts and retail fit-outs

Shop fits put sealant right in front of clients. Joints around counters, displays and shopfront frames have to look tidy as well as seal. Colour options are confirmed with the quote.

Why it fails

Washrooms and kitchens wear sealant out in their own way. Damp, harsh cleaning products and poor ventilation let mould take hold inside the bead, and once established it rarely cleans out. The fix is a new bead of anti-mould sanitary silicone.

What tends to prompt an enquiry:

  • Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
  • Shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks
  • Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
  • Untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby

What happens if it’s left?

Before budgeting for new frames, cubicles or worktops, check whether it’s just the sealant. Often the fitting is sound and the joint is the only thing letting it down. A careful reseal is a far smaller undertaking than replacement, and we will say so if the frame or fitting is life-expired.

What your quote should include

  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Their public liability cover

For managing agents and facilities managers

As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. N15 can form part of a wider programme.

FAQs: N15

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.

Do you cover N15?

Yes. We take on work across N15, and the same phone number covers every area.

How many days will you need on site?

We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

Is the old sealant taken out first?

Removal of the failed sealant is always part of the job. New sealant can’t grip the old bead, so laying over it never lasts, and the faces are brought back to sound, dry material before resealing.

Can one contractor look after sealant on all our buildings?

Yes, within the areas we cover: South East England, Greater London and Scotland. Each site gets the same process and a single contact.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
