Facade sealing for Selling sites
Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
Why it’s worth doing now in Selling
A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Leaks travel along the structure. Converted and older buildings near places like Selling tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.

Facade sealing in Selling, done properly
Access is part of every facade job, and we plan it with you before quoting. Let us know what access exists or is planned, and any site rules we need to work around. The enquiries we see most involve perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and staining on stone next to old sealant, across window and door perimeters, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and cladding panel joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Selling, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Selling is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Selling as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Quoting for work in Selling
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Phasing around occupants
- How accessible the joints are
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How much existing material needs removing
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Cladding panel joints
- Shopfront frames
- Coping and flashing joints
- Window and door perimeters
General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Sites and facades in and around Selling
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, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. At about 47 miles from central London, Selling is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
Historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens, 3.4 miles west of Selling, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. For contractors at a school such as Selling Church of England Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.

Questions about Selling
Is a smaller place like Selling outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. 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.
Will you fit the mastic around our build programme in Selling?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we will plan the mastic to suit the stages. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
How long will the new sealant last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Usually, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use, with each area protected and signed.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. We look at the perimeter sealant and tell you whether it has failed before quoting. Where the cause seems to be elsewhere, we’d rather tell you than reseal pointlessly.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

From enquiry to sign-off
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For a building around Selling, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- 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.
Preparing the site
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

What the job involves on each surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. We seal those perimeter joints, not the framing or glazing itself.
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, and mask the edges carefully.
