How we handle facade sealing in Paddock Wood
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits, so frosty or damp mornings can hold work back. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, stone and brick facade joints and cladding panel joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and staining on stone next to old sealant. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Paddock Wood, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Around places like Paddock Wood, a lot of construction is the conversion of older buildings, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

What we can’t put right
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building

Owners, agents and contractors
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Facades, frames and programmes in Paddock Wood
Paddock Wood lies roughly 31 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. Paddock Wood sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
Projects at schools like Paddock Wood Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. New units and refits on sites such as Eldon Way Industrial Estate (to the north-west of Paddock Wood) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

When to call us in Paddock Wood
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. With no backing, the sealant is restrained and rips when the facade moves.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Water coming in around window frames
On a healthcare site such as Tunbridge Wells Hospital, 4 miles south-west of Paddock Wood, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.

Surface by surface
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. The choice depends on the specification and finish.
Brick and stone facades
Brick and stone facades have perimeter and movement joints that need a compatible sealant. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone.
Quoting for work in Paddock Wood
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- The total length or number of joints
- Phasing around occupants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Access and working height
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.
Sending details for a quote
However big the job, the same details help:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Your programme or deadline
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Paddock Wood: questions and answers
Is Paddock Wood too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is a hospital such as Tunbridge Wells Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you take on small jobs?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
How much does the work cost?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
On site: what to expect
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Paddock Wood need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- 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.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
