Advice
About our facade sealing in Abbotts Ann
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. When a perimeter bead splits or peels, water finds its way behind frames and into the structure. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. Site teams most often ask us about cladding panel joints that have opened up and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, coping and flashing joints and shopfront frames. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Abbotts Ann, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
For a site near Abbotts Ann, 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 by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Facade sealing around Abbotts Ann: what changes locally
Abbotts Ann is about 66 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Abbotts Ann 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.
New units and refits on sites such as Plot 5 Andover Business Park, 1.4 miles to the north of Abbotts Ann, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. School extensions, at buildings such as Abbotts Ann Church of England Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Abbotts Ann is about 3 miles south-west of Andover, in Hampshire. Looking for facade sealing in Abbotts Ann? We can help. Our Hampshire coverage takes in 723 places, large and small. Our Southampton page has more on work in that area, about 20 miles away.

How the quote is worked out
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- The size and state of each joint
- Location, for remote and island sites
- How much existing material needs removing
- Working within restricted access windows
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Before you send an enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Access details, including height
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us to discuss it first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Perimeter joints at frames often show their age first. We cut them out, prepare both faces and reseal to the specification.
Cladding panel joints
Where panels are sealed rather than open-jointed, the bead is part of the weather line. We cut out failed joints along their full length and rebuild them with backing and a facade-grade sealant.

- Staining on stone next to old sealant
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
New wings at hospitals like Andover War Memorial Hospital (2.4 miles north-east of Abbotts Ann) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.

FAQs: Abbotts Ann
Can work at a site such as Andover College fit around teaching?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is Abbotts Ann too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Abbotts Ann is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
How do you choose the sealant?
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.
Can you quote from photographs?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
It depends on the joint, the substrate and any specification. Specifications often refer to BS EN 15651-1 for facade sealants or BS EN 15651-2 for glazing.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. If a joint fails because of how we installed it, we come back and put it right.
Should maintenance staff do it?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
