Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
- Share access with other external trades
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
Anything drilled through a facade joint breaks the seal. Ask the installer to reseal it properly with a compatible product.
Check older buildings for asbestos before disturbing old mastic. Some older mastics contain it.
Facade sealing in Foley Park
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day, and they wear out over time. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. We work on stone and brick facade joints, window and door perimeters and coping and flashing joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are water coming in around window frames and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters. For commercial sealant work in Foley Park, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around places like Foley Park, 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.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

From enquiry to sign-off
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. For a job in Foley Park, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photos of each area. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.
- First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Let building users know which areas are affected
Quotes
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or email us.

Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters
Frames grow and shrink with temperature, and the perimeter joint has to follow. Rod placed at the right depth lets the bead stretch.
Cladding panel joints
Where panels are sealed rather than open-jointed, the bead is part of the weather line. Failed runs are cut out and rebuilt end to end with backing and a facade-grade sealant.
When to call us in Foley Park
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
For a contractor at a hotel such as The Bull Hotel, 0.7 miles south-west of Foley Park, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

Common questions from Foley Park clients
Is Foley Park off your patch?
Not at all. Foley Park is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Could you schedule work at a campus like University for the Creative Arts for the vacation?
Yes. Education sites typically want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
How long will the new sealant last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
