Facade sealing in Sholden, done properly
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear with the ratio the sealant maker recommends, often around 2:1. We work on shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and cladding panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are old perimeter mastic that has dried out and damp patches beside frames after rain. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Sholden first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
For a site near Sholden, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we will quote to suit.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Why deal with it now?
Leaving failed perimeter sealant also makes the eventual job bigger: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Early action keeps it simple. Halls, stores and units around places like Sholden may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

Keeping the joints sound
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade instead of soaking the joints.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. One set-up for several trades saves money.
Commercial clients in Sholden
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

What the job involves on each surface
Coping and flashing joints
Where the specification calls for sealant at copings or flashings, we can seal them. These joints take full exposure to weather, so preparation and product choice matter.
Render and coated surfaces
Sealant can only hold as well as the render or paint beneath it. Loose coatings are cleaned back first.

Facades, frames and programmes in Sholden
Sholden is within about 2 miles of the coast. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. The area within 2 miles of Sholden holds plenty of hotels. When hotels extend or refit, the work is normally squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
Historic houses such as Walmer Castle (to the south-east of Sholden) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. When a school such as Sholden Church of England Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. On a healthcare site such as Victoria Hospital, 0.8 miles south-east of Sholden, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.

What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How much there is to seal
- Phasing around occupants
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
Before you send an enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- The site address and postcode
- When you need the work done
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Questions we’re asked in Sholden
Is a hospital such as Victoria Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Sholden too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Sholden is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
On site: what to expect
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather, and we clear our waste as we work. Jobs in and around smaller places like Sholden are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
