Doing it in-house
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Facade sealing in Wye
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Failed perimeter sealant is a frequent cause, though that isn’t the only cause. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. Most enquiries involve facade joints cracked through the middle and old perimeter mastic that has dried out, on coping and flashing joints, cladding panel joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Whoever orders the work in Wye, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In the countryside around places like Wye, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is usually what’s needed.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Signs you need facade sealing in Wye
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, and the patch soon lifts.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
With historic properties like Godinton House (to the west of Wye) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
What to look for in a quote
- The named product and why it was chosen
- How joint depth will be controlled
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Who will actually carry out the work
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Providing access systems for the work
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Coping and flashing joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Shopfront frames
- Cladding panel joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
How a job runs
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. For work around Wye, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- The existing bead comes out in full.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
Before we start on site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Advice
What affects the price in Wye
To price the job, we consider:
- How much there is to seal
- The size and state of each joint
- Working within restricted access windows
- How accessible the joints are
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Any specification or named product
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The postcode of the building

New build and refits around Wye
Rainfall across the South East, Wye included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Wye is about 50 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
For contractors at a school such as Lady Joanna Thornhill Endowed Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Extensions at sites like William Harvey Hospital, 3.1 miles south of Wye, typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.
Wye is about 4 miles north-east of Ashford, in Kent. We send applicators to Wye for facade joints. 931 places across Kent fall within our area, Wye among them. For work in that direction, see our London page (50 miles or so).
Anyone looking for facade sealing in TN25 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Streets here include High Street, Church Street and The Green, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. Nearby places we also cover include Kempe's Corner (1 mile west), Boughton Corner (1 mile north-west), Boughton Aluph (1 mile north-west), Brook (2 miles south-east) and Folly Town (2 miles south-east). A short drive away, we cover Ashford (4 miles south-west), Canterbury (9 miles north-east), Sittingbourne (14 miles north-west), Folkestone (12 miles south-east), Whitstable (12 miles north) and Faversham (9 miles north).
What’s near Wye
In Wye, that means premises near The New Flying Horse pub, Wye School and Wye School and the streets around them. Wye has its own railway station: Wye station. Other landmarks nearby include County Square (3.8 miles south-west) and William Harvey Hospital (3.1 miles south). Not far away are Hatch Park.
Why deal with it now?
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 Wye. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
