Facade sealing for Teynham sites

About our facade sealing in Teynham

Access is part of every facade job, and we plan it with you before quoting. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site, and we will fit the work around it. If you’re dealing with failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and previous reseals run over old sealant, we can put it right. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Teynham it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

In a smaller place such as Teynham, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Small schemes still need window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant done to the specification.

We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Honest limits

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
  • Damaged frames that need replacing
  • Providing access systems for the work

If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

  • Cladding panel joints
  • Window and door perimeters
  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Shopfront frames

Cost factors for facade joints

Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:

  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Any access equipment needed
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Location, for remote and island sites

The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

Details that help us quote

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • What the building is and how it’s used
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Facade sealing around Teynham: how the place shapes the job

Teynham sits close to the coast, within about 3 miles. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. Teynham lies roughly 40 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.

For a contractor at a hotel such as Hempstead House Hotel, which lies west of Teynham, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date. Further education sites such as KITE College, 2.6 miles to the north-west of Teynham, are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break.

Teynham is about 3 miles east of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Any commercial site in Teynham is covered, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. Teynham is one of 931 places we cover in Kent for facade joints. For work in that direction, see our London page, about 40 miles away.

We cover the ME9 postcode districts. We cover commercial and managed buildings on Station Road, London Road and Belle Friday Close. We also cover Teynham Street (1 mile north-east), Deerton Street (1 mile east), Norton Ash (1 mile south-east), Lewson Street (1 mile south-east) and Tickham (1 mile south) for facade joints. Further afield, our area takes in Maidstone (13 miles west), Ashford (13 miles south), Canterbury (13 miles east), Sittingbourne (3 miles west), Whitstable (10 miles east) and Faversham (4 miles east).

Local landmarks in Teynham

Locally, jobs take us to sites close to Sittingbourne Community College and The Dover Castle pub and the streets around them. There’s a railway station in Teynham itself: Teynham station. A little further out are Bayford Court (2.8 miles west) and Sittingbourne Heritage Museum (2.7 miles west).

Building owners, agents and FMs in Teynham

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

Our process

On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Teynham need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we’ll plan around them.

  1. First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
  2. The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
  3. Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
  4. Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
  5. A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
  6. We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.

Getting the site ready

  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice

Maintenance after handover

Once the work is signed off, these steps help:

  • Record the product and colour used on each elevation
  • Walk the elevations once or twice a year
  • Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
  • Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints

After heavy weather, check vulnerable elevations for signs of water inside. An early report typically means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.

Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones behind the facade.

When to call us in Teynham

Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint, and cracks or adhesion loss follow.

Things that usually lead to an enquiry:

  • Staining on stone next to old sealant
  • Water coming in around window frames
  • Patch repairs that keep failing
  • Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels

When a school such as Teynham Parochial Church of England Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

What your quote should include

  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • How joint depth will be controlled
  • How they’ll work around occupants
  • Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Common questions from Teynham clients

Is Teynham off your patch?

Not at all. Teynham is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can you work on a hospital site such as Sittingbourne Memorial 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.

Does the weather affect the work?

It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photos or drawings if you have them.

Can you work in cold or wet weather?

Rain and frost can pause external sealing. We plan for weather and keep you updated.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.

What site paperwork can you supply?

Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
