Facade sealing in New Romney, done properly
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. Site teams most often ask us about staining on stone next to old sealant and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, on coping and flashing joints, stone and brick facade joints and window and door perimeters. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in New Romney it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
On a small site around New Romney, the mastic is best done in the fewest visits we can manage. Let us know the key stages and we’ll time the work so nothing waits on us.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Why act early in New Romney
Every shower drives water through a split perimeter bead. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Share access with other external trades
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Ask the installer to reseal it properly with a compatible product.
Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading.
From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. What matters most for a job in New Romney is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photos of each area. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
What we need from you
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Advice
Your questions answered
Does a coastal location like New Romney affect which sealant is used?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Do you cover business parks and estates near New Romney, such as Peak Industrial Park?
Yes, sites like Peak Industrial Park are within our area, along with the rest of New Romney. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. New sealant won’t hold on old sealant, so the old bead is cut away. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
Can you find out why a window is leaking?
Yes. We look at the perimeter sealant and tell you whether it has failed before quoting. If the water seems to come from a roof, sill or the glazing unit instead, we say so.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, but the work normally takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Can you quote from photos?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, and bigger or more complex jobs usually get a visit.
What we’re called out for in New Romney
Adhesive failure, where the sealant peels away from one face, normally comes from poor preparation. Contamination, moisture or skipping the primer the maker specifies leave a weak bond.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Peak Industrial Park, 2.3 miles south-west of New Romney, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
Facade sealing around New Romney: how the place shapes the job
New Romney lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of New Romney. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
When a school such as St Nicholas Church of England Primary Academy is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as The Ship Hotel (under half a mile north of New Romney), usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.

When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Damaged frames that need replacing

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. We seal those perimeter joints rather than the system it surrounds.
Render and coated surfaces
Rendered and painted facades need a sound edge for the sealant to bond to. We remove flaking material so the bead bonds to a firm surface, and areas needing repair are flagged.
