Looking after the joints
For the best life from the joints:
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Regular checks let you renew joints before water gets in, rather than waiting for a ceiling stain.
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Standen
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site, and we’ll fit the work around it. We work on cladding panel joints, window and door perimeters and coping and flashing joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are failed sealant on precast panel joints and cold air coming in at window perimeters. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Standen from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around smaller places like Standen, building work normally means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Cost factors for facade joints
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The total length or number of joints
- Working within restricted access windows
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:

Facades, frames and programmes in Standen
Standen sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so the external programme keeps a little slack. Standen is about 41 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
Hospital estates such as Benenden Hospital (3.5 miles south-west of Standen) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
Standen is about 9 miles west of Ashford, in Kent. We send applicators to Standen for facade joints. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places. Sites around Brighton have their own page, roughly 40 miles from Standen.

Standen: questions and answers
Is a smaller place like Standen outside your area?
No. Places such as Standen are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you keep pace with our programme in Standen?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
When can you be on site?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Failed perimeter sealant is a common cause, but not the only one.
When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Shopfront frames
- Coping and flashing joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Window and door perimeters

Signs you need facade sealing in Standen
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. With no backing, the sealant is restrained.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Patch repairs that keep failing
On any site in or around Standen, the mastic follows the specification and the programme.
Comparing quotes
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. If others near Standen need work, visits can be combined. 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.
- 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.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Agree which areas must stay open
Getting a fixed quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
