Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Bar End

Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on offices, blocks and industrial units. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. If you’re dealing with unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Bar End? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Sites around smaller places like Bar End can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photographs and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

FAQs: Bar End

Is Bar End off your patch?

No. Places such as Bar End are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Could you schedule work at a campus like University of Winchester for the vacation?

Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we’ll plan the work around them. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.

How do I request a quote?

There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.

Will rain stop the work?

Year-round work is possible as long as joints are dry and temperatures suit the product. Frost and condensation on glass and steel are common on winter mornings, so we plan around the forecast.

Can you quote from photos?

Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

Common problems we fix in Bar End

Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead, and the patch soon lifts.

Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:

  • Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
  • Cold air coming in at window perimeters
  • Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure

Work at a hotel such as Wessex Hotel, 0.6 miles to the north-west of Bar End, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.

Before you book anyone

  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • What site paperwork they can supply

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

What sealant work can’t fix

We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

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

If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Where we work in Bar End

  • Shopfront frames
  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Window and door perimeters
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Cladding panel joints

Work for main contractors and building owners

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’ll confirm with the quote.

Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

Aftercare for building managers

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:

  • Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
  • Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
  • Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
  • Note when each elevation was last resealed

After heavy weather, check vulnerable elevations for signs of water inside. Catching a new leak early keeps the repair small.

Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading.
