Facade sealing in Ramsdean, done properly
We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, but not always. We’ll tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. We work on stone and brick facade joints, cladding panel joints and shopfront frames, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are leaks at window and door perimeters and perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Ramsdean it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller places like Ramsdean, 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, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

What the job involves on each surface
Precast concrete panels
Joints between precast panels carry real movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod, primed where the maker specifies.
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, with masked edges for a clean line.
Your questions answered
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Petersfield Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Ramsdean too far out for you?
No. Places such as Ramsdean are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Cost factors for facade joints
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Location, for remote and island sites
- How much there is to seal
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
Before you send an enquiry
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- The product your specification calls for
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Anything awkward about access or site hours

Why it’s worth doing now in Ramsdean
If access is already up for other work, resealing at the same time makes sense. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once, saving a second set-up. Converted and older buildings near places like Ramsdean tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Facade sealing in Ramsdean: the local picture
At about 52 miles from central London, Ramsdean is within reach of the capital. 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
Extensions at sites like Petersfield Hospital, 2.2 miles to the east of Ramsdean, usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.

Do you need facade sealing in Ramsdean?
The wrong product causes its share of trouble: acetoxy-cure silicone may mark stone or corrode certain metals, and an interior product won’t last outdoors. Neutral-cure, facade-grade products are what most external joints need.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Water coming in around window frames
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
When a school such as Langrish Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
