Facade sealing in Pollhill
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip. We will tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. If you are dealing with old perimeter mastic that has dried out and facade joints cracked through the middle, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Pollhill is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller places like Pollhill, building work typically means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Why deal with it now?
The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: edges get wet, render and timber deteriorate and frames can move. Early action keeps it simple. Around Pollhill, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. If others near Pollhill need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

New build and refits around Pollhill
Pollhill 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. Central London is about 37 miles from Pollhill. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Historic houses such as Leeds Castle (1.6 miles north-west of Pollhill) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. New wings at hospitals like KIMS hospital (5.7 miles north-west of Pollhill) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.
Pollhill is about 6 miles east of Maidstone, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Pollhill, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, large and small. Our London page has more on work in that area.
If you need facade sealing in ME17, the process matches everywhere else we work: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Buildings on Horwood Way, Shrubwood Close and Parkfield Close are within our area for facade joints.

Different surfaces, different methods
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. We seal those perimeter joints, not the framing or glazing itself.
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod, primed where the maker specifies.
Pollhill: questions and answers
Is a smaller place like Pollhill outside your area?
Not at all. Pollhill is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Would you work within a site like KIMS hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
In the majority of cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months on every job.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
When to call us in Pollhill
Not every failure is in the sealant: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. When the joint edges need repair first, we say so.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Water coming in around window frames
For contractors on a campus like Canterbury Christ Church University, 2 miles north of Pollhill, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates.
