Facade sealing in Bekesbourne, done properly
External sealing depends on the weather more than most trades. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range, and cold, damp starts can delay work. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. If you have patch repairs that keep failing and discoloured or dirty facade joints, we can help, on shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure alike. For commercial sealant work in Bekesbourne, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Bekesbourne is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Signs you need facade sealing in Bekesbourne
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. With no backing, the sealant is restrained and rips when the facade moves.
Look out for the following:
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
On a campus such as Canterbury Christ Church University (3 miles north-west of Bekesbourne), new teaching buildings and residences are normally built and refurbished around the academic year.
Before you book anyone
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
Surface by surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. A sealant of the right movement class goes in over backing rod.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. We seal those perimeter joints.
Contractors’ notes for Bekesbourne
Bekesbourne lies roughly 56 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Canterbury Business Park, 1.2 miles south of Bekesbourne, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. New wings at hospitals like Saint Martin's Hospital, 2.4 miles north-west of Bekesbourne, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.

After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
Keep a note of which product went in and when. It helps when matching repairs or planning the next reseal across the elevation.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. One set-up for several trades saves money.
When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Providing access systems for the work
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Your questions answered
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Saint Martin's Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is a smaller place like Bekesbourne outside your area?
No. Places such as Bekesbourne are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Do you provide access for facade work?
Access is planned with you before we quote. Let us know what access is in place or planned, and the quote will reflect it.
