How the job changes by surface
Cladding panel joints
Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. The sealant has to match the movement and the panel finish, often a low-modulus silicone or hybrid.
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. We confirm the product with you before starting.
How we handle facade sealing in Oakhanger
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. We work on window and door perimeters, stone and brick facade joints and shopfront frames, and the failures we are asked to look at most are hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and leaks at window and door perimeters. Whoever orders the work in Oakhanger, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In the countryside around places like Oakhanger, 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

When to bring in a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Location, for remote and island sites
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.
Before you send an enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The type of building and who uses it
- Your programme or deadline
Every quote starts with the facts: 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.
Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. If others near Oakhanger need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- The existing bead comes out in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
Before we start on site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Building and refurbishing in Oakhanger
Central London is about 44 miles from Oakhanger. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Oakhanger is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Southlands Industrial Park (0.7 miles south of Oakhanger), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Chase Hospital (1.8 miles east of Oakhanger), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

Do you need facade sealing in Oakhanger?
Sometimes the substrate is the problem: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.
Look out for the following:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
Projects at schools like Mill Chase Academy work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

Common questions from Oakhanger clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Chase Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Oakhanger, such as Southlands Industrial Park?
Yes, sites like Southlands Industrial Park are within our area, along with the rest of Oakhanger. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register, and we’ll ask to see it. If asbestos is suspected, work stops until it is tested.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Will rain stop the work?
We can work through the year, but sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures within the product’s range. Frost and condensation on glass and steel are common on winter mornings.
Can you work on upper floors?
Access is planned with you before we quote. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you are arranging and any site restrictions, and the quote will reflect it.
Why deal with it now?
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer and avoids repeat call-outs. Halls, stores and units around places like Oakhanger may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
