Facade sealing for Erriottwood sites

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

What happens if it’s left?

Leaving failed perimeter sealant also makes the eventual job bigger: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Early action keeps it simple. Halls, stores and units around places like Erriottwood may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Facade sealing in Erriottwood

Most facade joint failures trace back to the joint, not just the sealant. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear. Site teams most often ask us about old perimeter mastic that has dried out and damp patches beside frames after rain, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Erriottwood it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

For a site near Erriottwood, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.

Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

Honest limits

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:

  • Specialist high-level access methods
  • Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
  • Movement beyond what any sealant can handle

Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

On site: what to expect

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. Jobs in and around smaller places like Erriottwood are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
  2. We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
  3. The existing bead comes out in full and the joint faces cleaned.
  4. Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
  5. Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. We go over the completed work with you before leaving.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

Advice

Erriottwood: questions and answers

Is a smaller place like Erriottwood outside your area?

No. Places such as Erriottwood are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can you keep pace with our programme in Erriottwood?

Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we’ll plan the mastic to suit the stages. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

How long before the joints can be used?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.

What will the job cost?

It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.

When is resealing likely to be due?

It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.

Different surfaces, different methods

Brick and stone facades

Brick and stone facades have perimeter and movement joints that need a compatible sealant. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone, with primer where its maker specifies.

Perimeter joints at frames and structure

Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. We seal those perimeter joints, not the framing or glazing itself.

Facade sealing around Erriottwood: how the place shapes the job

Erriottwood is about 40 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Rainfall across the South East, Erriottwood included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so the external programme keeps a little slack.

Historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens, 3.4 miles to the south-east of Erriottwood, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. School extensions, at buildings such as Lynsted and Norton Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included. Units on estates such as Kent Science Park (2.7 miles west of Erriottwood) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.

Erriottwood is about 4 miles south-east of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Erriottwood sits inside our coverage and the rest of Kent, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. We work across 931 places in Kent. We also cover London, around 40 miles from Erriottwood.

How the quote is worked out

What shapes the price:

  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
  • How accessible the joints are
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

Before you send an enquiry

The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:

  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • The site address and postcode
  • When you need the work done
  • What the building is and how it’s used

Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
