The difference between “good” and “exceptional” paintwork often hides in the joints. We seal gaps and junctions with flexible, paintable systems so your finish looks perfect and stays that way.
Why Joint Sealing Matters
Buildings move—subtly with temperature, more with weather or settlement. Rigid fillers crack; unsealed gaps invite draughts and moisture. Our joint sealing approach absorbs movement, blocks water and air ingress, and provides a smooth base for interior and exterior paint systems. Result: straighter lines, sharper edges, fewer callbacks.
Where We Seal
- Plasterboard joins, corners and cornices
- Skirtings and architraves to walls and frames
- Substrate transitions (brick-to-timber, concrete-to-steel)
- Perimeters of windows and doors
- Façade joints and parapet details (often paired with waterproofing)
Sealants We Specify
From acrylics and hybrids to polyurethane and silicone, we match sealant chemistry to expected movement, exposure, and over-paint requirements. We apply consistent bead profiles, tool to a neat finish, allow correct curing time, and then integrate the joint into the final paint system.
Our Process
- Assessment. Identify joint type, gap width, expected movement, and environmental exposure.
- Prep. Clean, dry, and key surfaces; backer rods used where gaps demand a proper joint geometry.
- Apply & tool. Consistent, smooth beads that blend into adjacent surfaces.
- Cure & over-paint. Correct curing protects adhesion and elasticity before topcoats.
Benefits You’ll Notice
- Straight, crack-free lines between walls, ceilings, and trims
- Reduced draughts and better energy efficiency
- Less water ingress at problem junctions
- A longer-lasting, more professional finish overall
