Facade sealing for businesses in Tonge Corner
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Share access with other external trades
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and limits disruption.
How we handle facade sealing in Tonge Corner
Access is part of every facade job, and we plan it with you before quoting. Let us know what access exists or is planned, and any site rules we need to work around, and we’ll fit the work around it. We work on cladding panel joints, coping and flashing joints and stone and brick facade joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters and unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation. For commercial sealant work in Tonge Corner, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
For a site near Tonge Corner, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Tonge Corner: questions and answers
Is Tonge Corner off your patch?
No. Places such as Tonge Corner are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?
For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder, so ask for it before we start. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
How much does the work cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Do you take on small jobs?
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.
Why act early in Tonge Corner
Open facade joints also let air and dirt through: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. A new seal closes the gap for both. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Tonge Corner. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
What you get with us
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
- Fixed quotes based on photos, drawings or a visit

When to bring in a specialist
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Our process
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work normally takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. For a building around Tonge Corner, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
Quotes
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
Advice
Quoting for work in Tonge Corner
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- The product specified
- The size and state of each joint
- How accessible the joints are
- How much there is to seal
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 we will put a fixed figure on it.
Details that help us quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- When you need the work done
- The postcode of the building
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The product your specification calls for
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
How the job changes by surface
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use.
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface.
Facade sealing around Tonge Corner: how the place shapes the job
With the shore within about 2 miles, Tonge Corner counts as a coastal location. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Tonge Corner lies roughly 39 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.
On a healthcare site such as Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital, which lies west of Tonge Corner, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. When a school such as Lansdowne Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. Work at a hotel such as Tonge Barn Hotel (under half a mile south of Tonge Corner) tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.
