Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
General trades versus a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Little Bentley
Sealant around windows, doors and cladding panels stops rain reaching the wall behind. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We remove failed sealant and install a new bead chosen for the joint and how far it moves. We work on shopfront frames, coping and flashing joints and cladding panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are staining on stone next to old sealant and damp patches beside frames after rain. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Little Bentley tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Sites around smaller places like Little Bentley 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.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

What happens if it’s left?
Open facade joints also let air and dirt through: draughts around frames add to heating costs and complaints. Resealing deals with the draught as well as the leak. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Little Bentley, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

Contractors’ notes for Little Bentley
Little Bentley is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack. Central London is about 57 miles from Little Bentley. 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.
New units and refits on sites such as Plough Road Business Centre, 2.7 miles to the south of Little Bentley, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Historic houses such as Thorpe Hall, 4.7 miles south-east of Little Bentley, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

What the job involves on each surface
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. The choice depends on the specification and finish.
Coping and flashing joints
Where the specification calls for sealant at copings or flashings, we can seal them. These joints take full exposure to weather, so preparation and product choice matter.
