How we handle facade sealing in Wichling
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. If you have unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and old perimeter mastic that has dried out, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Wichling, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Sites around smaller places like Wichling can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. Should something we installed fail, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

What happens if it’s left?
Every shower drives water through a split perimeter bead. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing now costs less than repairing interiors later. Older rural buildings around Wichling move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Work on the window or framing system itself
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal

Common questions from Wichling clients
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as Canterbury Christ Church University?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Is Wichling off your patch?
Not at all. Wichling is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
The product follows the joint’s movement, the surfaces and the specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them, and we work to what is specified.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Is any job too small?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
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.
Our process
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. Jobs in and around smaller places like Wichling are normally planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Let us know about inductions and permits
Getting a fixed quote
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Contractors’ notes for Wichling
Wichling 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. At about 40 miles from central London, Wichling is within reach of the capital. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
Building work at universities like Canterbury Christ Church University, 3.1 miles west of Wichling, is often timed for the summer, mastic included.
Wichling is about 5 miles south of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Across the ME9 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. 931 places across Kent fall within our area, including Wichling. We also cover London, some 40 miles away.

Common problems we fix in Wichling
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, and the patch soon lifts.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
Older buildings in the area around Wichling, such as Belmont House and Gardens, which lies east of Wichling, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.
Before you book anyone
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
