How we handle facade sealing in Freefolk
Access is part of every facade job, and we plan it with you before quoting. Let us know what access exists or is planned, and any site rules we need to work around, and we will fit the work around it. We work on window and door perimeters, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and coping and flashing joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and air leaks through failed facade joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Freefolk, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In the countryside around places like Freefolk, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is typically what’s needed.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

How the quote is worked out
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- The size and state of each joint
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- The site address and postcode
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form if you’d rather talk the job through.

When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts, so the real damage is often some distance away. Around Freefolk, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Pricing facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

How long do sealant joints last?
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.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
Low-modulus, neutral-cure silicone suits many facade and perimeter joints. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, depending on the substrate and the specification.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.

Mastic packages on Freefolk sites
Freefolk sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. Freefolk lies roughly 55 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
Projects at schools like Testbourne Community School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. When units on a site such as Ardglen Industrial Estate (1.6 miles west of Freefolk) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work normally takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. If others near Freefolk need work, visits can be combined. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

After the work
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead.
Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones behind the facade.
