Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Key's Green
Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure for clients around Key's Green. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. If you have air leaks through failed facade joints and sealant pulling away from frames or panels, we can help. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Key's Green, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Sites around smaller places like Key's Green can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Key's Green: questions and answers
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Tunbridge Wells Hospital at Pembury?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can you keep pace with our programme in Key's Green?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we’ll plan the mastic to suit the stages. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, though not damage or work by other trades.
Can you work in cold or wet weather?
Wet joints or temperatures outside the product’s range mean waiting. We plan for weather and keep you updated as the work goes on.
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, and we will plan the work with you.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Owners, agents and contractors
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Quoting for work in Key's Green
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Phasing around occupants
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How accessible the joints are
- Travel to remote or island sites
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- The product your specification calls for
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Access details, including height
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead, so brief your window cleaners.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail, rather than waiting for a ceiling stain.

Honest limits
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think before you book.

Contractors’ notes for Key's Green
Key's Green is about 32 miles 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. Key's Green is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
Extensions at sites like Tunbridge Wells Hospital at Pembury, 2.4 miles to the north-west of Key's Green, typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. Historic houses such as Scotney Castle (to the south-east of Key's Green) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.
