Need facade sealing in Kit's Coty?
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Why act early in Kit's Coty
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts, so the real damage is often some distance away. Around Kit's Coty, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Why us?
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- Colours confirmed for the specified product

About our facade sealing in Kit's Coty
External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. We work on shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and coping and flashing joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Kit's Coty, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Mastic packages on Kit's Coty sites
A 2-mile radius around Kit's Coty takes in several hotels. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. Kit's Coty is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Lower Bell Industrial Estate, less than half a mile to the south of Kit's Coty, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For contractors at a school such as Tunbury Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Hotels like Bridgewood Manor Hotel, 1.4 miles to the north of Kit's Coty, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.

Our process
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Rural sites near Kit's Coty may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
What we need from you
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. A sealant of the right movement class goes in over backing rod.
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, often a low-modulus silicone or hybrid.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Kit's Coty
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
General trades versus a specialist
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.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Questions we are asked in Kit's Coty
Does your area include sites such as Lower Bell Industrial Estate, near Kit's Coty?
Yes, sites like Lower Bell Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Kit's Coty. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Spire Alexandra Hospital, something you do?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Do you provide access for facade work?
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.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
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.
