About our facade sealing in Hollingrove
We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: the frame-to-structure perimeter, panel-to-panel joints and window and door surrounds, using sealants classified for facade or glazing use. The enquiries we see most involve unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and leaks at window and door perimeters, on shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and coping and flashing joints. Most enquiries from Hollingrove start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Hollingrove is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
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.

Cost factors for facade joints
These are the things that shape the price:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How accessible the joints are
- How much there is to seal
- Which sealant the job calls for
A quote for facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What we need to price the job
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The type of building and who uses it
- When you need the work done
- The site address and postcode
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Should maintenance staff do it?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Honest limits
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- 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 before you book.

Sites and facades in and around Hollingrove
Rainfall across the South East, Hollingrove 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 external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Hollingrove lies roughly 43 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
Hospital estates such as Ticehurst House Hospital, 6 miles to the north of Hollingrove, 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. Historic houses such as Bateman's (2.2 miles north-west of Hollingrove) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.
Hollingrove is about 8 miles north of Bexhill-on-Sea, in East Sussex. We send applicators to Hollingrove for facade joints. 308 places across East Sussex fall within our area, Hollingrove among them. Our Brighton page has more on work in that area, about 25 miles away.

Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Jobs in and around smaller places like Hollingrove are normally planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Send any specification or drawings in advance

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds and avoids repeat call-outs. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Hollingrove. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Common questions from Hollingrove clients
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Ticehurst House Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is Hollingrove off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
It works in 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.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
How the job changes by surface
Render and coated surfaces
Sealant can only hold as well as the render or paint beneath it. We remove flaking material so the bead bonds to a firm surface, and areas needing repair are flagged.
Precast concrete panels
Joints between precast panels carry real movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod.
