About our facade sealing in Little Kimble
Sealant around windows, doors and cladding panels stops rain reaching the wall behind. When a perimeter bead splits or peels, water finds its way behind frames and into the structure. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. The enquiries we see most involve failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and old perimeter mastic that has dried out, on window and door perimeters, shopfront frames and stone and brick facade joints. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Little Kimble is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
In the countryside around places like Little Kimble, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

Site staff or a sealant 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.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

What else we do in Little Kimble
Different surfaces, different methods
Brick and stone facades
Brick and stone facades have perimeter and movement joints that need a compatible sealant. Neutral-cure products are used because acetoxy types can mark some stone, with primer where its maker specifies.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. We seal those perimeter joints.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before the next one starts. Smaller jobs around Little Kimble can be grouped with others nearby. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- 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.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
Getting a fixed quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Advice
What we’re called out for in Little Kimble
When the sealant tears down its centre, it has usually been asked to move more than it can. The joint may be too narrow, the bead too thin or the sealant the wrong movement class.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
New wings at hospitals like The Paddocks Hospital (2.2 miles south of Little Kimble) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.
What your quote should include
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
What happens if it’s left?
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds and avoids repeat call-outs. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Little Kimble, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
A quote for facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What you get with us
- Failed material removed, not covered up
- CHAS accredited
- RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
- Standard and matched colours in many product ranges

Common questions from Little Kimble clients
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University Campus Aylesbury Vale?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Does your area include sites such as Weston Way Industrial Estate, near Little Kimble?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Little Kimble, Weston Way Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
Can you find out why a window is leaking?
Yes. Photos help, and you can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to arrange a visit. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all.
Mastic packages on Little Kimble sites
Central London is about 35 miles from Little Kimble. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Rainfall across the South East, Little Kimble 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 the external programme keeps a little slack.
When a school such as Great Kimble Church of England School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. When units on a site such as Weston Way Industrial Estate (to the north of Little Kimble) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
