From enquiry to sign-off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For a job in Kearsney, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photos of each area. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.
- 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.
- 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 any areas we must not close
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

Advice
Facade sealing in Kearsney, done properly
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. Most enquiries involve air leaks through failed facade joints and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters, across coping and flashing joints, cladding panel joints and stone and brick facade joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Kearsney first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In a smaller place such as Kearsney, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Kearsney as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Quoting for work in Kearsney
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
Pricing facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Your questions answered
Do you cover business parks and estates near Kearsney, such as White Cliffs Business Park?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Kearsney, White Cliffs Business Park among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Our building in Kearsney is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Can you find out why a window is leaking?
Yes. Photos help, and you can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to arrange a visit. Failed perimeter sealant is a common cause, but not the only one, and we will be honest about which it is.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, though not damage or work by other trades.
How much does the work cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll price it properly.
Do you provide access for facade work?
Access is planned with you before we quote. Let us know what access is in place or planned, and we’ll price the work around it.
Will rain stop the work?
We can work through the year, but sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures within the product’s range. Frost and condensation on glass and steel are common on winter mornings, so we plan around the forecast.
General trades versus a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Aftercare for building managers
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed instead of soaking the joints.
Check older buildings for asbestos before disturbing old mastic. Older sealants can contain asbestos.
Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters
Frame-to-wall joints at windows and doors are the facade joints we reseal most. A low-modulus, neutral-cure product suits most frame-to-wall joints finished to throw water off the joint.
Precast concrete panels
Precast arrises sometimes crumble or carry old residue. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair.
Sites and facades in and around Kearsney
With the shore within about 3 miles, Kearsney counts as a coastal location. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Rainfall across the South East, Kearsney 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.
New wings at hospitals like Buckland Hospital (1.5 miles south-east of Kearsney) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like White Cliffs Business Park (to the east of Kearsney) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. Projects at colleges like East Kent College, 2.3 miles south-east of Kearsney, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
