What affects the price in Deal
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Access and working height
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- When you need the work done
- Clear photos of the problem areas
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us.
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Deal
Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. What we seal are the joints around them: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters. We work on cladding panel joints, window and door perimeters and coping and flashing joints, and what we’re called in for most is leaks at window and door perimeters and new sealant peeling off old mastic. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Deal, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For contractors on site in a town like Deal, the mastic has to fit the programme: sealing as scaffold comes down or as each floor is decorated, and snagging before handover. Send drawings and the programme and we will price to suit.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

New build and refits around Deal
With the shore within about 1 mile, Deal counts as a coastal location. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
Work at a hotel such as Queens Hotel, 0.5 miles north-east of Deal, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included. New wings at hospitals like Victoria Hospital, less than half a mile to the north-west of Deal, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.
Deal is about 14 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. Anywhere in CT14, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Deal is one of 931 places in Kent on our list. Sites around London have their own page, roughly 67 miles from Deal.
Postcode districts covered here: CT14 for facade joints. We cover commercial and managed buildings on London Road, Forelands Square and Herschell Square.

A short drive away, we cover Canterbury (14 miles west), Margate (11 miles north), Dover (7 miles south-west), Folkestone (13 miles south-west), Ramsgate (8 miles north) and Broadstairs (10 miles north).
Local landmarks in Deal
Around Deal, our work takes us to commercial buildings near Betteshanger Park, Brickmakers Arms and Deal Parochial Church of England Primary School, among other places.

How the job changes by surface
Render and coated surfaces
Sealant can only hold as well as the render or paint beneath it. We remove flaking material so the bead bonds to a firm surface.
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair before sealing.
Deal: questions and answers
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Victoria Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Deal?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Do you provide access for facade work?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. When you speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over, describe the access, and we’ll plan the work with you.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
Can you quote from photographs?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
From enquiry to sign-off
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. If you have more than one building in Deal, they can often be done on the same visit, with one quote covering them. Tell us when the building is open and we’ll plan to suit.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Point out any areas we must not close
Request a quote
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Advice
When something else is needed
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Signs you need facade sealing in Deal
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.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
School extensions, at buildings such as Castle Community College, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Before you book anyone
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Their public liability cover
