About our facade sealing in Felderland

We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. What we seal are the joints around them: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters. Most enquiries involve discoloured or dirty facade joints and cold air coming in at window perimeters, across shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Searching for sealant specialists in Felderland? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.

Around smaller places like Felderland, building work typically means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

Facade sealing around Felderland: points for this area

With the shore within about 3 miles, Felderland counts as a coastal location. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. A 2-mile radius around Felderland takes in several hotels. Hotel extensions and refits typically have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.

Projects at schools like Sandwich Technology School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. Hotels like The Fleur De Lys Hotel, 1.3 miles to the north of Felderland, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.

Felderland is about 4 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. Felderland sits inside our coverage, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places. There’s a separate page for London, about 64 miles away.

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 typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building, and we clear our waste as we work. For work around Felderland, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
  2. Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
  3. Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
  4. Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
  5. Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
  6. We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Getting the site ready

  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Flag any permit to work we will need

Advice

Common problems we fix in Felderland

Adhesive failure, where the sealant peels away from one face, normally comes from poor preparation. Dust, old sealant residue, damp or a missing primer stop it bonding properly, and movement soon pulls it away.

Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:

  • Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
  • Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
  • Previous reseals run over old sealant
  • Air leaks through failed facade joints

With historic properties like Goodnestone Park (4.7 miles west of Felderland) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
  • Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?

Our contractor checklist

Doing it in-house

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.

Quoting for work in Felderland

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • The product specified
  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements

The work involved drives the cost: 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.

What we need to price the job

To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:

  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Any dates the work must fit around

For a fixed quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.

After the work

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:

  • Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
  • Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
  • Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
  • Never let anyone seal over old sealant

If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards using a matching sealant.

In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it, and if it’s suspected, we stop until it has been tested.

For managing agents and facilities managers

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.

Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.

Questions we are asked in Felderland

Is Felderland off your patch?

Not at all. Felderland is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can being near the sea in Felderland affect the sealant we need?

It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.

Will you check whether the sealant is causing the leak?

Yes. We look at the perimeter sealant and tell you whether it has failed before quoting. If the water seems to come from a roof, sill or the glazing unit instead, we say so.

How is access to upper-level joints handled?

We agree access with the client at the start. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you are arranging and any site restrictions.

Can you send site paperwork?

Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.

How many days will you need on site?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
