Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Chilson
External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year, and they wear out over time. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints, and what we’re called in for most is discoloured or dirty facade joints and old perimeter mastic that has dried out. Most enquiries from Chilson start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For a site near Chilson, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photographs and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Owners, agents and contractors
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
When to call us in Chilson
Cohesive failure, a split through the middle of the bead, points to an over-stretched joint. The joint may be too narrow, the bead too thin or the sealant the wrong movement class.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
Sites around Chilson get mastic sealed to the drawings and the programme, nothing improvised.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
Facades, frames and programmes in Chilson
Chilson sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. At about 67 miles from central London, Chilson is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
New units and refits on sites such as Southill Business Park (2.7 miles south-east of Chilson) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. We confirm the product with you before starting.
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 and need a durable external sealant.

What sealant work can’t fix
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Coping and flashing joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Shopfront frames
- Window and door perimeters
What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- The total length or number of joints
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Removal of failed or old sealant
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Access details, including height
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with what you know.
