How we handle facade sealing in Argos Hill
Managing agents and owners in Argos Hill ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. The approach doesn’t change with the size: cut out, clean, back, prime where needed and seal. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. If you have sealant pulling away from frames or panels and discoloured or dirty facade joints, we can put it right. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Argos Hill is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Argos Hill is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Common questions from Argos Hill clients
Is a smaller place like Argos Hill outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is a hospital such as Crowborough War Memorial Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register. If asbestos is suspected, work stops until it is tested.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact.
How soon can the area be used again?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.
How is access to upper-level joints handled?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. Share what access exists or is planned when you send details, and we’ll agree the approach together.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
What we can’t put right
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Coping and flashing joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Shopfront frames
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
Common problems we fix in Argos Hill
When the sealant tears down its centre, it has typically been asked to move more than it can. The joint may be too narrow, the bead too thin or the sealant the wrong movement class.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
For contractors at a school such as Rotherfield Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
Before you book anyone
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
Building and refurbishing in Argos Hill
Argos Hill is about 35 miles from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Argos Hill is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
Hospital estates such as Crowborough War Memorial Hospital, 3.7 miles west of Argos Hill, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan. Hotels like Middle House Hotel (to the south-east of Argos Hill) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.
Argos Hill is about 3 miles east of Crowborough, in East Sussex. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Argos Hill can call on us for facade joints. We work across 308 places in East Sussex. For work in that direction, see our Brighton page (21 miles or so).
Commercial sites across TN6 are covered for facade joints. Just outside Argos Hill, we also work in High Cross (1 mile west), Town Row (1 mile north), Rotherfield (1 mile north-west), Woolbridge (1 mile south) and Mayfield (1 mile south-east). Further afield, our area takes in Lewes (15 miles south-west), Hailsham (12 miles south), Crowborough (3 miles west), Uckfield (8 miles south-west), Polegate (15 miles south) and South Malling (15 miles south-west).
Local landmarks in Argos Hill
We work on buildings around Jameah Islameah School and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Crowborough station, about 2.3 miles west. Nearby you will also find Crowborough War Memorial Hospital (3.7 miles west). Not far away are Crowborough Country Park.
Cost factors for facade joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Travel to remote or island sites
- The total length or number of joints
- Joint width, depth and condition
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Details that help us quote
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The product your specification calls for
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Doing it in-house
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Jobs in and around smaller places like Argos Hill are typically planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
