Building owners, agents and FMs in Aspley Guise

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.

Facade sealing in Aspley Guise

Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. The enquiries we see most involve new sealant peeling off old mastic and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, on shopfront frames, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and stone and brick facade joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Aspley Guise first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

Construction in and around smaller places such as Aspley Guise is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Common problems we fix in Aspley Guise

Cohesive failure, a split through the middle of the bead, points to an over-stretched joint. Too thin a bead, too narrow a joint or a product with the wrong movement class are common reasons.

It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:

  • New sealant peeling off old mastic
  • Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
  • Failed sealant on precast panel joints
  • Staining on stone next to old sealant

When units on a site such as Rook Tree Farm Industrial Estate, 2.2 miles north of Aspley Guise, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

What your quote should include

  • Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Honest limits

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:

  • Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
  • Installing or repairing glazing systems
  • Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints

Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Where we work in Aspley Guise

  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure

Mastic packages on Aspley Guise sites

A 2-mile radius around Aspley Guise takes in a good number of hotels. Hotel extensions and refits usually have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight. Rainfall across the South East, Aspley Guise included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.

School extensions, at buildings such as Aspley Guise Lower School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Best Western Moore Place Hotel, less than half a mile to the north-east of Aspley Guise, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.

Different surfaces, different methods

Render and coated surfaces

Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. We confirm the product with you before starting.

Window and door perimeters

Frame materials vary, and so does the preparation. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.

Questions we’re asked in Aspley Guise

Is Aspley Guise too small for you to travel to?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can work at a site such as The Open University fit around teaching?

Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.

How much does the work cost?

That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. We’re fully insured, including public liability cover.

Should we check old sealant for asbestos?

For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.

Can you find out why a window is leaking?

Yes. Photos help, and you can call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to arrange a visit. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all, and we’ll be honest about which it is.
