How we handle facade sealing in Godinton
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site. We work on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are failed sealant on precast panel joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Godinton is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Conversions around smaller places like Godinton often join new frames to old masonry or timber, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Facade sealing around Godinton: points for this area
Godinton is about 47 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Plenty of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Godinton. When hotels extend or refit, the work is usually squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
Units on estates such as St. Georges Business Centre, under half a mile to the south-east of Godinton, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal. For a contractor working at a hospital such as The One Ashford Hospital, which lies east of Godinton, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
Godinton is about 1 mile north-west of Ashford, in Kent. We cover Godinton and the rest of Kent, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Godinton is one of 931 places in Kent on our list. For work in that direction, see our London page (47 miles or so).
Commercial sites across TN23, TN25 and TN24 are covered. Buildings on Chart Road, Bridge Road and Chart Avenue are within our area for facade joints. Just outside Godinton, we also work in Great Chart (1 mile south-west), Ashford (1 mile south-east), Potters Corner (1 mile north), Stanhope (1 mile south) and Bockhanger (2 miles north-east). Nearby towns on our patch include Canterbury (13 miles north-east), Sittingbourne (14 miles north), Folkestone (15 miles east), Faversham (11 miles north), Hythe (12 miles south-east) and Davington (12 miles north).
What’s near Godinton
In Godinton, that means premises near Highworth Grammar School, The Little Black Dog pub and Ashford Warren and Hoads Wood.

For a walk, there’s Hatch Park.
What we’re called out for in Godinton
Sun, rain and temperature swings wear facade sealant down over the years. UV and weather harden the sealant until it can’t stretch with the building, then it splits or peels.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
Hotels like Ashford International Hotel, 0.9 miles north-east of Godinton, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- How they’ll work around occupants
Owners, agents and contractors
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Common questions from Godinton clients
Would you work within a site like The One Ashford Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Godinton too far out for you?
No. Places such as Godinton are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
In most cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use, with each area protected and signed.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit usually takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Do you seal facades in winter?
We can work through the year, but sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures within the product’s range. Cold, damp mornings can delay a start.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
Surface by surface
Cladding panel joints
Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, often a low-modulus silicone or hybrid.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. We seal those perimeter joints.
Why deal with it now?
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal

From enquiry to sign-off
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. For a job in Godinton, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
