Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
When something else is needed
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Coping and flashing joints
- Stone and brick facade joints

- Cladding panel joints
- Window and door perimeters
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Great Stonar
Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on commercial buildings in Great Stonar. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. If you’re dealing with staining on stone next to old sealant and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Great Stonar is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
In the countryside around places like Great Stonar, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.
Work we carry out in Kent comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters
Window and door perimeters make up most facade sealing work. A low-modulus, neutral-cure product suits most frame-to-wall joints.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
These frame-to-structure joints take a lot of movement and weather. They are cut out, cleaned, backed and resealed using a sealant classified for that use.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Your questions answered
Would you work within a site like Ramsgate General Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will you take on work at estates like Birnham Farm Business Centre, close to Great Stonar?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Great Stonar, Birnham Farm Business Centre among them, are all within reach. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Will rain stop the work?
Rain and frost can pause external sealing. We plan for weather and keep you updated throughout the job.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
New build and refits around Great Stonar
Great Stonar is within about 2 miles of the coast. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Great Stonar. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
When a school such as Sandwich Infant School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. New wings at hospitals like Ramsgate General Hospital, 4.2 miles north-east of Great Stonar, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Units on estates such as Birnham Farm Business Centre, 2.9 miles to the south-west of Great Stonar, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving failed perimeter sealant also makes the eventual job bigger: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Acting at the first sign of splitting keeps the fix simple. Converted and older buildings near places like Great Stonar tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Maintenance after handover
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
Keep a note of which product went in and when. It helps when matching repairs or planning the next reseal without guesswork.
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.
