How we handle facade sealing in Tye Green
External sealing depends on the weather more than most trades. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits, and cold, damp starts can delay work. We plan for that and keep you updated. The enquiries we see most involve new sealant peeling off old mastic and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, coping and flashing joints and cladding panel joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Tye Green? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Tye Green 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.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters
Frames grow and shrink with temperature, and the perimeter joint has to follow. The rod limits depth, leaving the bead able to flex without tearing.
Render and coated surfaces
Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. We confirm the product with you before starting.
What affects the price in Tye Green
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- How much there is to seal
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Phasing around occupants
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
Before you send an enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Access details, including height
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
The quickest route to a quote is a few photographs and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us to discuss it first.
After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade instead of soaking the joints.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and limits disruption.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself usually takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather, and we clear our waste as we work. For a building around Tye Green, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- 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.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Contractors’ notes for Tye Green
Tye Green sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Tye Green lies roughly 38 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
For contractors at a school such as Cressing Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Hospital estates such as Braintree Community Hospital (2.6 miles north-west of Tye Green) 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.
Tye Green is about 2 miles south-east of Braintree, in Essex. Tye Green sits inside our coverage, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. We work across 644 places in Essex, large and small. Sites around London have their own page, about 38 miles away.
Anyone looking for facade sealing in CM77 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee.

What sealant work can’t fix
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier

What else we do in Tye Green
Common problems we fix in Tye Green
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Water coming in around window frames
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Lanham Business Park (1 mile north-east of Tye Green), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

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.
Do you use silicone for external joints?
The product follows the joint’s movement, the surfaces and the specification. Specifications often refer to BS EN 15651-1 for facade sealants or BS EN 15651-2 for glazing and we follow the specified product.
Can you work on upper floors?
Access is planned with you before we quote. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you’re arranging and any site restrictions.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. Glazing, windows and glass replacement aren’t part of our work. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
