Facade sealing in Hampton, done properly
We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Failed perimeter sealant is a frequent cause. We’ll tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. Most enquiries involve leaks at window and door perimeters and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Hampton, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For a contractor on a smaller site near Hampton, one mastic visit at the right stage saves return trips. Tell us when scaffold comes down and when decoration finishes, and we will plan around those stages.
Work we carry out in Kent comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Work for main contractors and building owners
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
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’ll confirm them with the quote.
Common problems we fix in Hampton
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
Work at a hotel such as The Pier Hotel, 1 mile to the east of Hampton, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.
Before you book anyone
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- How joint depth will be controlled

After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down.
How the quote is worked out
To price the job, we consider:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Working within restricted access windows
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How much there is to seal
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Specification clauses that apply
- When you need the work done
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work

Facade sealing in Hampton: the local picture
Hampton lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. At about 52 miles from central London, Hampton is within reach of the capital. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
When a school such as Hampton Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. New units and refits on sites such as St. Augustine's Business Park, 1.1 miles to the south-west of Hampton, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.
Hampton is about 2 miles west of Herne Bay, in Kent. Anywhere in CT6, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Hampton is one of 931 places in Kent on our list for facade joints. Sites around London have their own page, about 52 miles away.

From enquiry to sign-off
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. What matters most for a job in Hampton is a clear list of what needs doing. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- 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

- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice
FAQs: Hampton
Can you work on a hospital site such as Queen Victoria Memorial 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.
Will you take on work at estates like St. Augustine's Business Park, close to Hampton?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Hampton, St. Augustine's Business Park among them, are all within reach. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Can you work on upper floors?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. Share what access exists or is planned when you send details.
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.
When something else is needed
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly.
