Facade sealing in Hextable
Managing agents and owners in Hextable ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. Either way, the method is the same: cut out, clean, back, prime where needed and seal. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. If you have cold air coming in at window perimeters and sealant pulling away from frames or panels, we can put it right, on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Hextable is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Conversions around smaller places like Hextable often join new frames to old masonry or timber, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Your questions answered
Is Hextable too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Hextable is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Greenwich?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us with a description of the work.
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.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
Facades, frames and programmes in Hextable
There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Hextable. Hotel extensions and refits typically have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight. Rainfall across the South East, Hextable 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 the external programme keeps a little slack.
Work at a hotel such as Rowhill Grange Hotel & Utopia Spa (0.5 miles north-east of Hextable) tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included. When a college such as North Kent College, 1.7 miles to the north-east of Hextable, builds or refurbishes, the mastic package typically has to fit around students and staff. University estates such as University of Greenwich (to the north-east of Hextable) tend to have a rolling programme of new buildings and refurbishments, each with window perimeters and facade joints to seal.

On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Hextable need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Point out any areas we must not close

Related advice
Aftercare for building managers
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
Keep a note of which product went in and when. It helps when matching repairs or planning the next reseal across the elevation.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. One set-up for several trades saves money.
Doing it in-house
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
What the job involves on each surface
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. Our work is that perimeter joint, not the framing or glazing itself.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Work on the window or framing system itself
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Cladding panel joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Coping and flashing joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
Leave it or put it right?
Every shower drives water through a split perimeter bead. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
