Cost factors for facade joints
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How much there is to seal
- How much existing material needs removing
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Access details, including height
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- When you need the work done

Facade sealing in Garlinge Green, done properly
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 the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. We work on shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and window and door perimeters, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are damp patches beside frames after rain and perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Garlinge Green from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
In the countryside around places like Garlinge Green, 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 normally what’s needed.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

What the job involves on each surface
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair first.
Window and door perimeters
Perimeter joints move as frames expand and contract in the sun. The rod limits depth, leaving the bead able to flex as the frame moves.
FAQs: Garlinge Green
Is Stour Valley Business Park, near Garlinge Green, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Garlinge Green, Stour Valley Business Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of the Creative Arts?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. Glazing, windows and glass replacement aren’t part of our work. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
New build and refits around Garlinge Green
Central London is about 52 miles from Garlinge Green. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. Rainfall across the South East, Garlinge Green included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
Hospital estates such as Kent and Canterbury Hospital (3.5 miles north-east of Garlinge Green) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Stour Valley Business Park (2 miles north of Garlinge Green), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For contractors on a campus like University of the Creative Arts, 3.9 miles north-east of Garlinge Green, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For work around Garlinge Green, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.

- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

When to bring in a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
When something else is needed
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Specialist high-level access methods
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.
