Commercial sealant contractors in W6

Commercial sealant contractors in W6: 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, because the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder. Anything suspect is left alone until it has been tested. The enquiries we see most involve hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations and earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead, across external facade joints, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and movement joints in walls and floors.

When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work normally takes a few hours for one area, or a planned series of visits across a bigger building.

1. We start with the evidence: photographs, drawings or a look on site.
2. You get a fixed quote covering removal, preparation and the new sealant.
3. We agree the order of work, access windows and site hours with you.
4. Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
5. Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
6. Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.

How the quote is worked out

What shapes the price:

• The total length or number of joints
• Whether the work must be split into stages
• Location, for remote and island sites
• Induction, permit and paperwork requirements

The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

What we need to price the job

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

• Specification clauses that apply

• Any dates the work must fit around
• Where the site is, with the postcode

The quickest route to a quote is a few photographs and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over if you’d rather talk the job through.
