Facade sealing for Seal sites
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Why deal with it now?
The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Early action keeps it simple. Older rural buildings around Seal move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

Facade sealing in Seal, done properly
Most facade joint failures trace back to the joint, not just the sealant. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear with the ratio the sealant maker recommends, often around 2:1. Most enquiries involve failed sealant on precast panel joints and failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames, on stone and brick facade joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and window and door perimeters. Whoever orders the work in Seal, the brief is normally the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Seal bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is usually what’s needed.
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.

For managing agents and facilities managers
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The size and state of each joint
- The product specified
- Working within restricted access windows
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you’re working to. Call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The product your specification calls for
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to discuss it first.
Facades, frames and programmes in Seal
Seal is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. Seal lies roughly 20 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
When a school such as Seal Church of England Voluntary Controlled Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. On a healthcare site such as Sevenoaks Hospital, 1 mile west of Seal, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.
Seal is about 2 miles north-east of Sevenoaks, in Kent. Looking for facade sealing in Seal? We can help, as we do across Kent. Across Kent, 931 places are covered, Seal among them. There’s a separate page for London, roughly 20 miles from Seal.

Common questions from Seal clients
Can you work at a site such as Bat & Ball Enterprise Centre, by Seal?
Yes, sites like Bat & Ball Enterprise Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Seal. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Seal off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
Usually, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Will rain stop the work?
Wet joints or temperatures outside the product’s range mean waiting. We plan for weather and keep you updated.
When to call us in Seal
Product choice matters: an acetoxy cure can mark stone or corrode some metals, and interior products break down outdoors. Neutral-cure, facade-grade products are what most external joints need.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Water coming in around window frames
Units on estates such as Bat & Ball Enterprise Centre, 1 mile to the west of Seal, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
Questions to ask before you book
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed rather than sitting against the joints.
Get the joint design right when resealing: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. A well-designed joint lasts longer than a like-for-like copy of a failed one.
Our process
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For work around Seal, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Let building users know which areas are affected
