Commercial sealant contractors in SP9: how it works

Pricing a commercial reseal is a short process. Our quote form takes photos, drawings or a schedule of the areas. Where the photos don’t tell the full story, we arrange a site visit, and a fixed quote for the agreed scope follows. We work on washrooms and tea points, external facade joints and floor and threshold joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations and black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off.

Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on 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.

  1. First, details reach us through the quote form or a site visit.
  2. The cause is diagnosed and the scope priced as a fixed quote.
  3. Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
  4. Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
  5. Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
  6. We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.

Commercial sealant contractors across SP9: the area picture

Commercial buildings across SP9 range from older premises altered many times to recent units on business parks. Surfaces decide the sealant, from masonry to powder-coated frames and shop-fit panels.

Around the motorway corridors of the South East, business parks and industrial estates are common, and we cover SP9 along with the rest of the region.

Tidworth: Occupiers with premises at both Castledown Business Park and Ludgershall Business Park could have the sealant at each handled under one quote. Parks like Castledown Business Park (1.7 miles north-east of Tidworth) see tenants come and go, and every move-in brings joints to seal.

Building owners, agents and FMs in SP9

When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Surface by surface

Facade and cladding joints

Panel joints on cladding and rendered facades open and close with the temperature. They need a sealant with the right movement capability, laid at the right depth. We confirm the access in place before we quote.

Window and door perimeters

Where frames meet the surrounding wall, sealant is the weather line. Failed perimeters are cut out and cleaned, backing goes into deeper gaps, and the joint is resealed with a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone or another suitable product.

What happens if it’s left?

On many buildings the mastic was done by whichever trade was on site. A specialist applicator takes care of product choice, joint depth and preparation, the three things that decide how long a joint lasts. It shows over the following seasons rather than at handover.

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.

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Common problems we fix in SP9

Every sealant joint is a maintenance item. Its life comes down to movement, UV and weather, how it’s cleaned, how much traffic passes it and what was used in the first place. On a busy commercial site several of those pile up at once, which is why regular inspection pays.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Greasy, split joints in a kitchen or tea point
  • Hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations
  • Expansion joints with the sealant torn out
  • Damp patches where an external joint has failed

Questions about SP9

Can weather delay the job?

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.

What about asbestos in old mastic?

On older buildings, our first request is the asbestos survey. Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility and removing it isn’t something we do.

Do you hold CHAS accreditation?

Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.

Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?

Let us know your requirements when you ask for a price. From you, we will need the asbestos information for older buildings and any site rules.

How long does a typical visit take?

That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit normally takes anything from part of a day on a short run of joints to several weeks on a large phased package. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.

Do you work in SP9?

Yes. SP9 is in our area, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us.

Can areas stay open during the work?

It’s normal for us to work in occupied buildings. We agree the order of areas, protect what’s nearby and close off only the section we are sealing for as long as the cure needs.
