About our facade sealing in Bodicote

Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: cut out, clean, back, prime where needed and seal. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. If you have failed sealant on precast panel joints and water coming in around window frames, we can put it right, on stone and brick facade joints, window and door perimeters and cladding panel joints alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Bodicote first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.

Building work in places the size of Bodicote is typically small-scale: a handful of new houses, barn conversions, a school or hall extension. Small schemes still need window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant done to the specification.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Looking after the joints

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Record the product and colour used on each elevation
  • Share access with other external trades
  • Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
  • Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear

Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead and tell your cleaning contractor.

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

When it isn’t the sealant

Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Installing or repairing glazing systems
  • Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
  • Providing access systems for the work

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.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Diagnose, treat, 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. Work in places the size of Bodicote is planned as a single visit where we can. Clear photos and measurements help us bring the right products.

  1. Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
  2. Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
  3. The existing bead comes out in full.
  4. Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
  5. Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
  6. We go over the completed work with you before leaving.

Getting the site ready

  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Sites and facades in and around Bodicote

Bodicote is about 64 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of Bodicote. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.

Extensions at sites like The Horton General Hospital (1.2 miles north-west of Bodicote) usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. For contractors at a school such as Longford Park Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. When a college such as Oxford and Cherwell Valley College (to the north-west of Bodicote) builds or refurbishes, the mastic package typically has to fit around students and staff.

Bodicote is about 2 miles south-east of Banbury, in Oxfordshire. We send applicators to Bodicote for facade joints. Our Oxfordshire coverage takes in 423 places, large and small. Oxford is covered too, around 20 miles from Bodicote.

Questions we are asked in Bodicote

Is a smaller place like Bodicote outside your area?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can you work at a site such as Tramway Industrial Estate, by Bodicote?

Yes. Our area takes in Bodicote and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Tramway Industrial Estate included. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Can you work on upper floors?

We agree access with the client at the start. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you are arranging and any site restrictions, and we will price the work around it.

Will you come and look before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.

What will the job cost?

That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.

Can you send site paperwork?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.

Why act early in Bodicote

Failed joints let in more than water: draughts around frames add to heating costs and complaints. A new seal closes the gap for both. In a smaller place such as Bodicote, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.

Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

Why us?

  • Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
  • Specification-led, product-correct work
  • Commercial sealant work since 2005

What the job involves on each surface

Precast concrete panels

Joints between precast panels carry real movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod.

Perimeter joints at frames and structure

The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. Our work is that perimeter joint.
