FAQs: Lower Stoke
Our building in Lower Stoke is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Lower Stoke?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Do you use silicone for external joints?
It depends on the joint, the substrate and any specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them, and we work to what is specified.
When can you be on site?
We are in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
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 email drawings and photos. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Will you quote for a small job?

How we handle facade sealing in Lower Stoke
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site. Most enquiries involve previous reseals run over old sealant and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, on shopfront frames, stone and brick facade joints and cladding panel joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Lower Stoke tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In the countryside around places like Lower Stoke, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is typically what’s needed.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Medway. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll come back to it.

From enquiry to sign-off
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Jobs in and around smaller places like Lower Stoke are normally planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. Neutral-cure products are used because acetoxy types can mark some stone, with primer where its maker specifies.
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, primed where the maker specifies.
What sets the cost
To price the job, we consider:
- The total length or number of joints
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The site’s rules and procedures
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Before you send an enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos if you’d rather talk the job through.
What happens if it’s left?
If access is already up for other work, resealing at the same time makes sense. Coordinating facade sealing with other external works avoids paying for access twice, which is often the biggest saving. Halls, stores and units around places like Lower Stoke may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What you get with us

When to call us in Lower Stoke
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
School extensions, at buildings such as Stoke Primary Academy, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
What your quote should include
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Specialist high-level access methods
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.

Building and refurbishing in Lower Stoke
Lower Stoke sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. Lower Stoke sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
For contractors building in or near Lower Stoke, we seal to the drawings, the specification and the programme.
