About our facade sealing in Arborfield Garrison
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on commercial buildings in Arborfield Garrison. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. If you are dealing with cold air coming in at window perimeters and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, we can help. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Arborfield Garrison first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
On a small site around Arborfield Garrison, the mastic is best done in the fewest visits we can manage. Tell us when scaffold comes down and when decoration finishes, and we’ll plan around those stages.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. Future work can then match the product and colour without guesswork.
Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones inside the building.
Questions about Arborfield Garrison
Is Arborfield Garrison off your patch?
Not at all. Arborfield Garrison is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Would you work within a site like Wokingham Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. New sealant won’t hold on old sealant, so the old bead is cut away. That is what makes the new joint last.
When can you be on site?
We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
Can you find out why a window is leaking?
Yes. Photos help, and you can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us to arrange a visit. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all, and we will tell you which.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
What we can’t put right
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Shopfront frames
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Coping and flashing joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
Should maintenance staff do it?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example 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.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Arborfield Garrison need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- 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.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Facade sealing in Arborfield Garrison: the local picture
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. Arborfield Garrison is about 36 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
For contractors at a school such as Bohunt School Wokingham, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (to the south-west of Arborfield Garrison) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

Look out for the following:
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Wokingham Hospital (3 miles north-east of Arborfield Garrison), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
