Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Broadwater Down
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, though that isn’t the only cause. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. If you have perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and staining on stone next to old sealant, we can help.

Common problems we fix in Broadwater Down
When sealant lets go of a frame or panel, the cause is often the preparation. Contamination, moisture or skipping the primer the maker specifies leave a weak bond.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
Projects at schools like Broadwater Down Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
General trades versus a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. 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.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For a site in Broadwater Down, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.
- First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- 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.
Before we start on site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

What the job involves on each surface
Window and door perimeters
Frame-to-wall joints at windows and doors are the facade joints we reseal most. A low-modulus, neutral-cure product suits most frame-to-wall joints, tooled to shed water.
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, with masked edges for a clean line.
Aftercare for building managers
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. It helps when matching repairs or planning the next reseal without guesswork.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. One set-up for several trades saves money and limits disruption.
Questions about Broadwater Down
Is Broadwater Down too far out for you?

Will you take on work at estates like Royal Victoria Shopping Centre, close to Broadwater Down?

How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit usually takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Do you take on small jobs?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Can you work in cold or wet weather?
We can work through the year, but sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures within the product’s range. Frost and condensation on glass and steel are common on winter mornings.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
