How we handle facade sealing in Alciston
We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. What we seal are the joints around them: the frame-to-structure perimeter, panel-to-panel joints and window and door surrounds. We work on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and the failures we are asked to look at most are failed sealant on precast panel joints and new sealant peeling off old mastic. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Alciston from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
For a site near Alciston, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

FAQs: Alciston
Do you cover business parks and estates near Alciston, such as Berwick Court Farm Business Park?
Yes, sites like Berwick Court Farm Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Alciston. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Could you schedule work at a campus like University of Brighton for the vacation?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. Our method is a full cut-out, cleaning, backing and a new bead.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.

Surface by surface
Coping and flashing joints
Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. They sit in the most exposed positions on the building, so preparation and product choice matter.
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, and mask the edges carefully.
When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Work on the window or framing system itself
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly.

Sites and facades in and around Alciston
Alciston lies roughly 47 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Alciston. Hotel extensions and refits typically have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
With historic properties like Charleston Farmhouse, 1.3 miles to the north-west of Alciston, in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants. Extensions at sites like Chailey Heritage Marine Hospital (to the south-west of Alciston) typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.

Leave it or put it right?
Topping up a failed joint usually buys very little time. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Alciston, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What you get with us
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- A Constructionline member, so easy to vet

Common problems we fix in Alciston
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint, and cracks or adhesion loss follow.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Berwick Court Farm Business Park (1.4 miles south-east of Alciston) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
