How we handle facade sealing in Coleman's Hatch
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range. We plan for that and keep you updated. We work on stone and brick facade joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and window and door perimeters, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and cladding panel joints that have opened up. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Coleman's Hatch it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
For a site near Coleman's Hatch, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work in Coleman's Hatch

What affects the price in Coleman's Hatch
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How much there is to seal
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.
Why act early in Coleman's Hatch
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing now costs less than repairing interiors later. Older rural buildings around Coleman's Hatch move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
What you get with us
- CHAS accredited
- RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions

How the job changes by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
These frame-to-structure joints take a lot of movement and weather. They are cut out, cleaned, backed and resealed with a product suited to glazing perimeters.
Cladding panel joints
Where panels are sealed rather than open-jointed, the bead is part of the weather line. We cut out failed joints along their full length and rebuild them.
Mastic packages on Coleman's Hatch sites
Central London is about 29 miles from Coleman's Hatch. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. 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 the external programme keeps a little slack.
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Queen Victoria Hospital, 4.4 miles to the north-west of Coleman's Hatch, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. When units on a site such as Forest Row Business Park (1.5 miles north-west of Coleman's Hatch) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

FAQs: Coleman's Hatch
Is Coleman's Hatch too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you work at a site such as Forest Row Business Park, by Coleman's Hatch?
Yes. Our area takes in Coleman's Hatch and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Forest Row Business Park included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. The 12-month guarantee covers our preparation and application, though not damage or work by other trades.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
The product follows the joint’s movement, the surfaces and the specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them and we follow the specified product.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, as long as we plan it. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Do you provide access for facade work?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. Share what access exists or is planned when you send details.
When to call us in Coleman's Hatch
Three-sided adhesion is a classic installation fault. Without rod or bond-breaker tape, the bead is held back and rips when the facade moves.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
With historic properties like Bassetts Manor (2.6 miles north-east of Coleman's Hatch) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- The named product and why it was chosen
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. For work around Coleman's Hatch, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
What we need from you
