Our facade sealing service in Wokingham
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site, so the price covers the real job. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, coping and flashing joints and shopfront frames, and the failures we are asked to look at most are weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters and sealant pulling away from frames or panels.
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather, and we clear our waste as we work.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- The existing bead comes out in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
What you will pay
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Sites and facades across Wokingham
From Woodley, Earley and Crowthorne to smaller places across Wokingham, main contractors and developers need mastic packages for new build and refurbishment. We seal perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification, on programme.
Around the motorway corridors of the South East, business parks and industrial estates are common, and we cover Wokingham along with the rest of the region.
Wokingham: On a healthcare site such as Wokingham Hospital (less than half a mile east of Wokingham), new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. New units and refits on sites such as Station Industrial Estate (less than half a mile east of Wokingham) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.
Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters
Perimeter joints move as frames expand and contract in the sun. The rod limits depth, leaving the bead able to flex as the frame moves.
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface.
Cost factors for facade joints
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- The size and state of each joint
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Distance, for remote addresses
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
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The postcode of the building
- Your programme or deadline
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
To get a fixed quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over. You can also send details through our quote form.
Signs you need facade sealing
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead, and the patch soon lifts.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
Why act early?
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches.

FAQs: Wokingham
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, though not damage or work by other trades.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
Will you quote for a small job?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
In the majority of cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use, with each area protected and signed.
Do you cover Wokingham?
Yes. Wokingham falls within our area, and you can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to get started.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
