FAQs: Romney Street

Is Romney Street too small for you to travel to?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Do you cover business parks and estates near Romney Street, such as West Kingsdown Industrial Estate?

Yes. Our area takes in Romney Street and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as West Kingsdown Industrial Estate included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.

Do you take on small jobs?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

Can weather delay the job?

It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.

Facade sealing in Romney Street

We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure for clients around Romney Street. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. Site teams most often ask us about leaks at window and door perimeters and new sealant peeling off old mastic, across stone and brick facade joints, cladding panel joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Romney Street, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Romney Street bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.

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.

Honest limits

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
  • Work on the window or framing system itself
  • Damp caused by condensation inside the building

If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

What we seal

  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Shopfront frames
  • Window and door perimeters
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure

Contractors’ notes for Romney Street

Rainfall across the South East, Romney Street included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack. Romney Street lies roughly 18 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand.

Extensions at sites like Sevenoaks Hospital (to the south-west of Romney Street) typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. New units and refits on sites such as West Kingsdown Industrial Estate, 1.7 miles to the north-east of Romney Street, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

Romney Street is about 4 miles north-east of Sevenoaks, in Kent. Commercial clients in Romney Street use us for work on facade joints, as part of our coverage of Kent. We work across 931 places in Kent, large and small. There’s a separate page for London, about 18 miles away.

What happens if it’s left?

Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Coordinating facade sealing with other external works avoids paying for access twice, saving a second set-up. Older rural buildings around Romney Street move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

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 rather than the system it surrounds.

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, with primer where its maker specifies.

Signs you need facade sealing in Romney Street

Not every failure is in the sealant: 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:

  • Cold air coming in at window perimeters
  • Patch repairs that keep failing
  • Facade joints cracked through the middle
  • Water coming in around window frames

Older buildings in the area around Romney Street, such as Lullingstone Castle, which lies north-west of Romney Street, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee
  • Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
  • How they handle RAMS and site documents

How to choose a sealant contractor

How a job runs

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Smaller jobs around Romney Street can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
  2. We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
  3. The existing bead comes out in full.
  4. Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
  5. Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. The finished joints are checked with you.

What we need from you

  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Agree which areas must stay open
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
