When to bring in a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
About our facade sealing in Ash Vale
We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Failed perimeter sealant is a frequent cause. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. We work on coping and flashing joints, stone and brick facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and what we’re called in for most is discoloured or dirty facade joints and draughts around frames and panels. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Ash Vale is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
On a small site around Ash Vale, the mastic is best done in the fewest visits we can manage. Let us know the key stages and we will time the work so nothing waits on us.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Keeping the joints sound
For the best life from the joints:
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Keep high-pressure jets and strong chemicals away from new sealant, so brief your window cleaners.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Regular checks let you renew joints before water gets in.
Our process
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself normally takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather, and we clear our waste as we work. Several jobs near Ash Vale can be grouped on one trip. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Sites and facades in and around Ash Vale
Ash Vale is about 32 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Ash Vale is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. 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.
Projects at colleges like Aldershot College (to the south-west of Ash Vale) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly. Projects at schools like Shawfield Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

Ash Vale: questions and answers
Is Ash Vale off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Frimley Park Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. If our installation fails in that time, we return and fix it.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
Will you check whether the sealant is causing the leak?
Yes. Photos help, and you can speak to us 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.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.

New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, so the new bead peels away within a season or two.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Draughts around frames and panels
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Frimley Park Hospital, 3.8 miles to the north of Ash Vale, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

Quoting for work in Ash Vale
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- Working within restricted access windows

- The size and state of each joint

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.
