About our facade sealing in Farthing Green
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day, and they wear out over time. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. If you are dealing with old perimeter mastic that has dried out and air leaks through failed facade joints, we can help. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Farthing Green? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Farthing Green is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Do you need facade sealing in Farthing Green?
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. With no backing, the sealant is restrained.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
New units and refits on sites such as Barradale Farm Industrial Estate (1.1 miles south-east of Farthing Green) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

Farthing Green: questions and answers
Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Farthing Green?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Can you work at a site such as Barradale Farm Industrial Estate, by Farthing Green?
Yes, sites like Barradale Farm Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Farthing Green. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. That work needs a glazing specialist. What we seal are the joints around frames and panels across the facade.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes. The 12-month guarantee covers our preparation and application, though not damage or work by other trades.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Should maintenance staff do it?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
How a job runs
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. 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. Rural sites near Farthing Green may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.
- 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 both faces cleaned back.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.

Contractors’ notes for Farthing Green
Farthing Green lies roughly 37 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. Farthing Green sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. 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.
Historic houses such as Stoneacre (4.4 miles north of Farthing Green) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

What else we do in Farthing Green
What we can’t put right
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Coping and flashing joints
- Shopfront frames
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Window and door perimeters
What happens if it’s left?
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Farthing Green. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
