About our facade sealing in Danehill
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. If you are dealing with new sealant peeling off old mastic and failed sealant on precast panel joints, we can help, on shopfront frames, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and stone and brick facade joints alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Danehill is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Sites around smaller places like Danehill can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Owners, agents and contractors
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.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Doing it in-house
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
What affects the price in Danehill
Before we quote, we look at:
- How much existing material needs removing
- The product specified
- Phasing around occupants
- How accessible the joints are
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The site address and postcode
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Any dates the work must fit around
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over if you’d rather talk the job through.
Contractors’ notes for Danehill
Danehill is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. Danehill is about 33 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Historic houses such as Priest House, 4 miles north-west of Danehill, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Horsted Keynes Business Park, 2 miles to the north-west of Danehill, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. Hospital estates such as Princess Royal Hospital (to the south-west of Danehill) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
Danehill is about 5 miles north-east of Haywards Heath, in East Sussex. Across the RH17 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Danehill is one of 308 places we cover in East Sussex for facade joints. We also cover Brighton, around 15 miles from Danehill.

Common questions from Danehill clients
Is Horsted Keynes Business Park, near Danehill, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Danehill and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Horsted Keynes Business Park included. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Princess Royal Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months on every job.
Keeping the joints sound
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead and tell your cleaning contractor.
Get the joint design right when resealing: the right width, backing rod and a sealant with enough movement capability. Repeating a faulty detail just repeats the failure.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work usually takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Rural sites near Danehill may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- Failed beads are removed in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Before we start on site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
