About our facade sealing in Awbridge
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. When a perimeter bead splits or peels, water finds its way behind frames and into the structure. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. We work on shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and cladding panel joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Awbridge from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Awbridge bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is usually what’s needed.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Sites and facades in and around Awbridge
Awbridge sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
With historic properties like Mottisfont Abbey, 2 miles north of Awbridge, in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants. Extensions at sites like Romsey Hospital (3 miles south-east of Awbridge) usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.
Awbridge is about 3 miles north-west of Romsey, in Hampshire. Anywhere in SO51, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Awbridge is one of 723 places we cover in Hampshire for facade joints. Southampton is covered too, around 9 miles from Awbridge.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Awbridge: questions and answers
Does your area include sites such as Budds Lane Industrial Estate, near Awbridge?
Yes. Our area takes in Awbridge and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Budds Lane Industrial Estate included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Romsey Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
What will the job cost?
We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Will you come and look before quoting?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Typically, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use.
Different surfaces, different methods
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Perimeter joints at frames often show their age first. They are cut out, cleaned, backed and resealed using a sealant classified for that use.
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. Jobs in and around smaller places like Awbridge are typically planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
What we need from you
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Arrange parking or a loading space
Ask for a quote
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Advice
Common problems we fix in Awbridge
The wrong product causes its share of trouble: an acetoxy cure can mark stone or corrode some metals, and interior products break down outdoors. Neutral-cure, facade-grade products are what most external joints need.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
When a school such as Awbridge Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.
What your quote should include
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
What we can’t put right
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
