How we handle facade sealing in Leatherhead
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on stone and brick facade joints, coping and flashing joints and cladding panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Leatherhead tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Many towns of Leatherhead’s size have older buildings being converted or extended, so new windows and cladding meet old masonry. Getting the product and primer right for both faces is what keeps those joints sound.
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.

Quoting for work in Leatherhead
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- How much there is to seal
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The product specified
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What to include in your enquiry
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Your programme or deadline
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- The product your specification calls for
Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we will return a fixed quote that you can work with. For a chat about it beforehand, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
What happens if it’s left?
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once. Many buildings in towns like Leatherhead have been extended or altered, and joints where old meets new tend to fail first. Renewing them before water gets in protects the fabric.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

How a job runs
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. If you have more than one building in Leatherhead, they can often be done on the same visit. Tell us when the building is open and we will plan to suit.
- We start with photos, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- Failed beads are removed in full.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in

What we can’t put right
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Cladding panel joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Window and door perimeters
- Coping and flashing joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
When to call us in Leatherhead
Sometimes the substrate is the problem: if the edge of the render, concrete or coating breaks away, the bead goes with it. When the joint edges need repair first, we say so.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Water coming in around window frames
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
Projects at schools like Leatherhead Trinity School and Children's Centre work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Their public liability cover
Common questions from Leatherhead clients
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University for the Creative Arts?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Would you work within a site like Leatherhead Community Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Can you quote from photographs?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Facades, frames and programmes in Leatherhead
Leatherhead is about 17 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Leatherhead is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
Older buildings in the area around Leatherhead, such as Polesden Lacey, 3.4 miles to the south-west of Leatherhead, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials. On a campus such as University for the Creative Arts, which lies north-east of Leatherhead, new teaching buildings and residences are usually built and refurbished around the academic year.
