Facade sealing in Broomhill
Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure for clients around Broomhill. Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. Most enquiries involve old perimeter mastic that has dried out and cladding panel joints that have opened up, on coping and flashing joints, shopfront frames and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Broomhill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For a site near Broomhill, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we will quote to suit.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Leave it or put it right?
Failed joints let in more than water: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. Resealing deals with the draught as well as the leak. Converted and older buildings near places like Broomhill tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Common questions from Broomhill clients
Does your area include sites such as Wingham Industrial Estate, near Broomhill?
Yes, sites like Wingham Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Broomhill. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as St Martins Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Broomhill in your area?
Yes. We take on work across Broomhill, with one number for every area we cover.
Do you need to see the site first?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it.
Contractors’ notes for Broomhill
Rainfall across the South East, Broomhill included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. At about 59 miles from central London, Broomhill is within reach of the capital. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Hospital estates such as St Martins Hospital, 4.8 miles west of Broomhill, 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. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Wingham Industrial Estate, 0.8 miles south of Broomhill, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

Common problems we fix in Broomhill
Cohesive failure, a split through the middle of the bead, points to an over-stretched joint. The joint may be too narrow, the bead too thin or the sealant the wrong movement class.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
Projects at schools like Wingham Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.
What your quote should include
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
Should maintenance staff do it?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Some joints are best left to specialists: 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.

Advice
For managing agents and facilities managers
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Different surfaces, different methods
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. Neutral-cure products are used because acetoxy types can mark some stone.
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, chosen for the frame and wall, goes in, tooled to shed water.
