FAQs: Anthill Common

Can you work on a hospital site such as Queen Alexandra Hospital?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Is Parklands Business Park, near Anthill Common, within your area?

Yes, sites like Parklands Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Anthill Common. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Do you cover Anthill Common?

Yes. Sites across Anthill Common are covered, and the same phone number covers every area.

Can one quote cover more than one building?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.

Do you offer coloured sealant?

It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.

Do you replace failed glazing units?

No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, such as perimeter joints where frames meet the structure.

Can you quote from photographs?

That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.

How we handle facade sealing in Anthill Common

Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. The approach doesn’t change with the size: cut out, clean, back, prime where needed and seal. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on window and door perimeters, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and coping and flashing joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are failed sealant on precast panel joints and sealant pulling away from frames or panels. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Anthill Common it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

For a site near Anthill Common, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photographs and the programme and we will quote to suit.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What sets the cost

We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:

  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • The product specified
  • The size and state of each joint

A quote for facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Details that help us quote

However big the job, the same details help:

  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • The postcode of the building
  • When you need the work done

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us with what you know.

Facade sealing in Anthill Common: the local picture

At about 59 miles from central London, Anthill Common is within reach of the capital. 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. Anthill Common sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.

Hospital estates such as Queen Alexandra Hospital (4.2 miles south of Anthill Common) 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. Work at a hotel such as The George Hotel, 1.5 miles to the north of Anthill Common, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.

Anthill Common is about 3 miles north-west of Waterlooville, in Hampshire. If you are looking for facade sealing in Anthill Common, we can help, as we do across Hampshire. Our Hampshire coverage takes in 723 places. We also cover Portsmouth, around 7 miles from Anthill Common.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Anthill Common. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

On site: what to expect

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. For a building around Anthill Common, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.

  1. We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
  2. Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
  3. Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
  4. Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
  5. A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
  6. We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Related advice

Leave it or put it right?

Leaving failed perimeter sealant also makes the eventual job bigger: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Acting at the first sign of splitting keeps the fix simple. For buildings around smaller places like Anthill Common, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

What you get with us

  • Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
  • Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance
  • Colour options checked against the specified product
  • Commercial sealant work since 2005

Aftercare for building managers

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:

  • Share access with other external trades
  • Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
  • Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
  • Investigate damp beside windows promptly

If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards.

Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. One set-up for several trades saves money and limits disruption.

What we’re called out for in Anthill Common

Not every failure is in the sealant: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
  • Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
  • Staining on stone next to old sealant
  • Failed sealant on precast panel joints

Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Parklands Business Park (to the south-east of Anthill Common) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.

What to look for in a quote

  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • Their public liability cover
  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
