Facade sealing for businesses in Comp

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Quoting for work in Comp

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:

  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Working within restricted access windows
  • Any access equipment needed
  • Quantities, in metres or numbers

The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Sending details for a quote

There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:

  • The site address and postcode
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older

To get a fixed quote, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. You can also send details through our quote form.

Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Comp

Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on cladding panel joints, coping and flashing joints and window and door perimeters, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are previous reseals run over old sealant and water coming in around window frames. Most enquiries from Comp 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.

Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Comp bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

How the job changes by surface

Precast concrete panels

Precast arrises sometimes crumble or carry old residue. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair.

Perimeter joints at frames and structure

Perimeter joints at frames often show their age first. We cut them out, prepare both faces and reseal to the specification with a product suited to glazing perimeters.

Common problems we fix in Comp

Three-sided adhesion is a classic installation fault. With no backing, the sealant is restrained and rips when the facade moves.

Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:

  • Cladding panel joints that have opened up
  • New sealant peeling off old mastic
  • Facade joints cracked through the middle
  • Water coming in around window frames

New units and refits on sites such as Bourne Enterprise Centre, 1.4 miles north-west of Comp, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

What to look for in a quote

  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • How joint depth will be controlled
  • Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee

Our contractor checklist

Building and refurbishing in Comp

Comp lies roughly 24 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Rainfall across the South East, Comp included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.

For contractors at a school such as Platt Church of England Voluntary Aided Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Historic houses such as Old Soar Manor, 1.7 miles south-west of Comp, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

Comp is about 3 miles west of Kings Hill, in Kent. Any commercial site in Comp is covered. Across Kent, 931 places are covered, including Comp. There’s a separate page for London, about 24 miles away.

If you need facade sealing in TN15, the process matches everywhere else we work: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Just outside Comp, we also work in Platt (1 mile north-west), Wrotham Heath (1 mile north-east), Crouch (1 mile south-west), Claygate Cross (1 mile south-west) and Borough Green (1 mile west). Further afield, our area takes in Maidstone (8 miles east), Dartford (12 miles north-west), Sevenoaks (7 miles west), Royal Tunbridge Wells (11 miles south), Gravesend (10 miles north) and Tonbridge (7 miles south-west).

How a job runs

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For work around Comp, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
  2. Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
  3. Failed beads are removed in full and both faces cleaned back.
  4. Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
  5. Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. The finished joints are checked with you.

Preparing the site

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Point out any areas we must not close

Related advice

Why deal with it now?

Every shower drives water through a split perimeter bead. Behind the frame, that can mean damp plaster, stained ceilings, corroded fixings and damaged insulation. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. Halls, stores and units around places like Comp may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
