About our facade sealing in Silver Street
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range, so frosty or damp mornings can hold work back. We plan for that and keep you updated. If you are dealing with previous reseals run over old sealant and cold air coming in at window perimeters, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Silver Street start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In the countryside around places like Silver Street, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is typically what’s needed.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

How a job runs
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. If others near Silver Street need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Different surfaces, different methods
Coping and flashing joints
Sometimes the coping or flashing itself has failed. We tell you if the fix is a roofing or metalwork job rather than a reseal.
Render and coated surfaces
Sealant can only hold as well as the render or paint beneath it. Loose coatings are cleaned back first.
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade rather than sitting against the joints.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. One set-up for several trades saves money and cuts time on site.
Honest limits
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Providing access systems for the work
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Sites and facades in and around Silver Street
Silver Street lies roughly 36 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
Building work at universities like Canterbury Christ Church University, 3.1 miles to the south of Silver Street, is often timed for the summer, mastic included. Extensions at sites like Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital (to the north-east of Silver Street) typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Kent Science Park, 1.4 miles to the east of Silver Street, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.
Silver Street is about 3 miles south-west of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Silver Street can call on us for facade joints, as part of our coverage of Kent.

Local landmarks in Silver Street

Nearby you’ll also find Sittingbourne Heritage Museum (2.9 miles north-east) and Bayford Court (3.1 miles north-east). Green spaces nearby include Detling Hill.
Doing it in-house
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Questions about Silver Street
Is Silver Street too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Do you replace windows or glass?
No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, such as perimeter joints where frames meet the structure.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
How soon can the area be used again?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
Low-modulus, neutral-cure silicone suits many facade and perimeter joints. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, depending on the substrate and the specification.
