Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Jobs in and around smaller places like Stondon Massey 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.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Agree which areas must stay open

Facade sealing in Stondon Massey, done properly
Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on offices, blocks and industrial units. Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, cladding panel joints and window and door perimeters, and what we’re called in for most is damp patches beside frames after rain and discoloured or dirty facade joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Stondon Massey, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Stondon Massey bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Building and refurbishing in Stondon Massey
Stondon Massey is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack. Stondon Massey is about 21 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
School extensions, at buildings such as Doddinghurst Church of England Junior School, usually run to the summer holidays, mastic included. When units on a site such as Hallsford Bridge Industrial Estate (1.6 miles north-west of Stondon Massey) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Historic houses such as Ingatestone Hall, 4.5 miles east of Stondon Massey, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.
Stondon Massey is about 4 miles north of Brentwood, in Essex. We send applicators to Stondon Massey for facade joints. Stondon Massey is one of 644 places in Essex on our list. Sites around London have their own page, about 21 miles away.

When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Work on the window or framing system itself
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Window and door perimeters
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Shopfront frames
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
How the job changes by surface
Coping and flashing joints
Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. They sit in the most exposed positions on the building and need a durable external sealant.
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone, with primer where its maker specifies.
Your questions answered
Is Stondon Massey too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Brentwood Community 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.
Can you fit around our working hours?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Is any job too small?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Owners, agents and contractors
Building owners and managing agents use us 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.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Stondon Massey can form part of a wider programme.
