Doing it in-house
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
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.
About our facade sealing in Felsted
Most facade joint failures trace back to the joint, not just the sealant. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear with the ratio the sealant maker recommends, often around 2:1. If you’re dealing with air leaks through failed facade joints and previous reseals run over old sealant, we can help. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Felsted it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Felsted is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Why deal with it now?
Open facade joints also let air and dirt through: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. A new seal closes the gap for both. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Felsted, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Aftercare for building managers
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Older sealants can contain asbestos, and if it’s suspected, we stop until it has been tested.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Work on the window or framing system itself
- Damaged frames that need replacing
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Building and refurbishing in Felsted
Felsted is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
