Facade sealing in Bepton Common, done properly

Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. We work on cladding panel joints, coping and flashing joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and what we are called in for most is perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and staining on stone next to old sealant. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Bepton Common tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Construction in and around smaller places such as Bepton Common 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.

Keeping the joints sound

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:

  • Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
  • Never let anyone seal over old sealant
  • Clear debris that holds water against joints
  • Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows

Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed rather than sitting against the joints.

In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Older sealants can contain asbestos, and work stops until it’s tested if it’s suspected.

Building and refurbishing in Bepton Common

At about 46 miles from central London, Bepton Common is within reach of the capital. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Bepton Common is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.

Older buildings in the area around Bepton Common, such as Cowdray House, which lies north-east of Bepton Common, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials. School extensions, at buildings such as Midhurst CofE Primary School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.

General trades versus a specialist

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.

Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.

From enquiry to sign-off

Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. Smaller jobs around Bepton Common can be grouped with others nearby. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. We start with photos, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
  2. Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
  3. The existing bead comes out in full and the joint faces cleaned.
  4. Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
  5. Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
  6. The finished joints are checked with you.

Preparing the site

  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work

Advice

Commercial clients in Bepton Common

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

Bepton Common: questions and answers

Is Bepton Common off your patch?

No. Places such as Bepton Common are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Is a hospital such as Midhurst Community Hospital somewhere you can work?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

Do you use silicone for external joints?

Low-modulus, neutral-cure silicone suits many facade and perimeter joints. Hybrid or MS polymer, polyurethane and polysulphide sealants suit others, as the specification or substrate requires.

Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?

Yes, for 12 months. If a joint fails because of how we installed it, we come back and put it right.

Do you take on multi-site work?

Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, and you deal with one contact throughout across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.

Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. The dutyholder’s asbestos register should be checked first. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.

Do you need facade sealing in Bepton Common?

Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, and the patch soon lifts.

Things that normally lead to an enquiry:

  • Damp patches beside frames after rain
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Draughts around frames and panels
  • Failed sealant on precast panel joints

Hospital estates such as Midhurst Community Hospital (1.4 miles north-east of Bepton Common) 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.

What your quote should include

  • Their pre-qualification and accreditations
  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
  • The named product and why it was chosen
