Facade sealing in Chatham Green, done properly
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, and closed-cell rod sets the depth, keeping the bond to two faces, often at around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises. We work on window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and the failures we are asked to look at most are weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation. Most enquiries from Chatham Green start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In the countryside around places like Chatham Green, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is usually what’s needed.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

When to bring in a specialist
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.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

What the job involves on each surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. Our work is that perimeter joint, not the framing or glazing itself.
Window and door perimeters
Frame materials vary, and so does the preparation. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.
When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Why act early in Chatham Green
The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: edges get wet, render and timber deteriorate and frames can move. Early action keeps it simple. Converted and older buildings near places like Chatham Green tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
