Facade sealing for Bailey's Hard sites
Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Phasing around occupants
- Access and working height
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Sending details for a quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- What the building is and how it’s used
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
How we handle facade sealing in Bailey's Hard
We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: the frame-to-structure perimeter, panel-to-panel joints and window and door surrounds with products suited to facade or glazing perimeter joints. Most enquiries involve discoloured or dirty facade joints and patch repairs that keep failing, on window and door perimeters, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and cladding panel joints. Most enquiries from Bailey's Hard start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Bailey's Hard is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

From enquiry to sign-off
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. If others near Bailey's Hard need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

When to call us in Bailey's Hard
Three-sided adhesion is a classic installation fault. Without rod or bond-breaker tape, the bead is held back and tears as the joint moves.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
When a school such as Beaulieu Village Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.
Before you book anyone
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Signs to look for are cracking, edges lifting, chalking and stiffness; record the locations.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. Sharing the access keeps the cost down.
Bailey's Hard: questions and answers
Is a hospital such as Lymington New Forest Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Bailey's Hard too far out for you?
No. Places such as Bailey's Hard are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. New sealant won’t hold on old sealant, so the old bead is cut away. That is what makes the new joint last.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Facades, frames and programmes in Bailey's Hard
Bailey's Hard sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. A 2-mile radius around Bailey's Hard takes in a number of hotels. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
Hospital estates such as Lymington New Forest Hospital, 5.4 miles to the south-west of Bailey's Hard, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Montagu Arms Hotel, 0.7 miles to the north-west of Bailey's Hard, typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
