How we handle facade sealing in East Molesey
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 with the ratio the sealant maker recommends, often around 2:1. Site teams most often ask us about sealant pulling away from frames or panels and previous reseals run over old sealant, on cladding panel joints, window and door perimeters and coping and flashing joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in East Molesey tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Around places like East Molesey, a lot of construction is the conversion of older buildings, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Building owners, agents and FMs in East Molesey
We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around East Molesey. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Coping and flashing joints
Sometimes the coping or flashing itself has failed. We tell you if the fix is a roofing or metalwork job rather than a reseal.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Leave it or put it right?
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer and avoids repeat call-outs. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
A quote for facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

What else we do in East Molesey
How a job runs
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Work in places the size of East Molesey is planned as a single visit where we can. Clear photographs and measurements help us bring the right products.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Before we start on site
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
