What sealant work can’t fix
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 phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Hollybushes
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. Site teams most often ask us about weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and previous reseals run over old sealant, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, coping and flashing joints and cladding panel joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Hollybushes first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For a site near Hollybushes, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

How the quote is worked out
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Travel to remote or island sites
- The size and state of each joint
- The total length or number of joints
A quote for facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Call for a quote.

What else we do in Hollybushes
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, which is often the biggest saving. Around Hollybushes, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
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.
Why us?
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- CHAS accredited
Building and refurbishing in Hollybushes
Rainfall across the South East, Hollybushes included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. Hollybushes lies roughly 39 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
School extensions, at buildings such as Milstead and Frinsted Church of England Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Kent Science Park, which lies north of Hollybushes, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For contractors on a campus like Canterbury Christ Church University (2.9 miles south-west of Hollybushes), facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates.
Hollybushes is about 4 miles south of Sittingbourne, in Kent. We cover Hollybushes, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Across Kent, 931 places are covered, Hollybushes among them. We also cover London, some 39 miles away.

Common questions from Hollybushes clients
Is Kent Science Park, near Hollybushes, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Hollybushes and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Kent Science Park included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Could you schedule work at a campus like Canterbury Christ Church University for the vacation?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we’ll plan the work around them. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Is any job too small?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Can you work on upper floors?
We agree access with the client at the start. Let us know what access is in place or planned, and the quote will reflect it.
Aftercare for building managers
After handover, these steps help:
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Share access with other external trades
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Signs to look for are cracking, edges lifting, chalking and stiffness.
Check older buildings for asbestos before disturbing old mastic. Some older mastics contain it, and work stops until it’s tested if it’s suspected.
Our process
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. For work around Hollybushes, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. 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.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

How the job changes by surface
Coping and flashing joints
Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. We tell you if the fix is a roofing or metalwork job rather than a reseal.
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, with masked edges for a clean line.
