Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
From enquiry to sign-off
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. Smaller jobs around South Green can be grouped with others nearby. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Facade sealing in South Green
Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure for clients around South Green. Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. The enquiries we see most involve failed sealant on precast panel joints and staining on stone next to old sealant, on shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in South Green, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In the countryside around places like South Green, 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What else we do in South Green
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work in South Green
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Shopfront frames
Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters
Frame materials vary, and so does the preparation. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.
Coping and flashing joints
Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Why act early in South Green
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts. Converted and older buildings near places like South Green tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Common questions from South Green clients
Would you work within a site like KIMS hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Will you take on work at estates like Newington Industrial Estate, close to South Green?
Yes. We cover South Green and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Newington Industrial Estate. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely and the faces are cleaned before resealing. That is what makes the new joint last.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. Workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months on every job.
Signs you need facade sealing in South Green
Sometimes the substrate is the problem: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
New wings at hospitals like KIMS hospital, 4.5 miles west of South Green, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.

Mastic packages on South Green sites
At about 35 miles from central London, South Green is within reach of the capital. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
For contractors on a campus like Canterbury Christ Church University, 3.2 miles to the south of South Green, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates. Older buildings in the area around South Green, such as Leeds Castle, which lies south of South Green, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.
