Facade sealing in Margery
Most facade joint failures trace back to the joint, not just the sealant. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear. We work on coping and flashing joints, cladding panel joints and stone and brick facade joints, and what we’re called in for most is gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels and discoloured or dirty facade joints.

In the countryside around places like Margery, 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.

From enquiry to sign-off
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself usually taking anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. Jobs in and around smaller places like Margery are normally planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- 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.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Doing it in-house
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Facades, frames and programmes in Margery
There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Margery. When hotels extend or refit, the work is usually squeezed between peak periods, mastic included. Margery 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 we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
For contractors at a school such as Kingswood Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Bridge House Hotel, 0.7 miles to the south-east of Margery, typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. When units on a site such as Chesterfield Business Park, 1.7 miles south-west of Margery, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

How the quote is worked out
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- The size and state of each joint
- The total length or number of joints
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Phasing around occupants
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
What to include in your enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The product your specification calls for
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.
Margery: questions and answers
Is Margery off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as Reigate College?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, but the work typically takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, as the specification or substrate requires.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. The dutyholder’s asbestos register should be checked first; if it’s suspected, work stops until it has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Looking after the joints
For the best life from the joints:
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead, so brief your window cleaners.
Building facade joints into a maintenance cycle avoids emergency repairs. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail instead of after the damage.
How the job changes by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. Our work is that perimeter joint, not the framing or glazing itself.
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.
