How we handle facade sealing in Loughton
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, and closed-cell rod sets the depth, keeping the bond to two faces. We work on shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and coping and flashing joints, and what we are called in for most is damp patches beside frames after rain and staining on stone next to old sealant. Most enquiries from Loughton start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In a smaller place such as Loughton, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Small schemes still need window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant done to the specification.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Milton Keynes. If an installation problem shows up, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will arrange a return visit.

Leave it or put it right?
Open facade joints also let air and dirt through: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. A new seal closes the gap for both. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

- Location, for remote and island sites
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The total length or number of joints
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
New build and refits around Loughton
Loughton has plenty of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. Loughton 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, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Deltic Trade Park, 0.6 miles north of Loughton, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. School extensions, at buildings such as Loughton Manor First School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.

Your questions answered
Does your area include sites such as Deltic Trade Park, near Loughton?
Yes. Our area takes in Loughton and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Deltic Trade Park included. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Loughton off your patch?

Do you have public liability insurance?

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all, and we’ll tell you which.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Commercial clients in Loughton
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Do you need facade sealing in Loughton?
Sun, rain and temperature swings wear facade sealant down over the years. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint, then it splits or peels.
Look out for the following:
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Water coming in around window frames
For contractors at a college like Milton Keynes College, 1.3 miles east of Loughton, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.
What your quote should include
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- How joint depth will be controlled
What the job involves on each surface
Cladding panel joints
Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, often a low-modulus silicone or hybrid.
Coping and flashing joints
Where the specification calls for sealant at copings or flashings, we can seal them. They sit in the most exposed positions on the building.
How a job runs
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area.
