Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Broughton Crossing
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. Site teams most often ask us about air leaks through failed facade joints and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters, on window and door perimeters, stone and brick facade joints and coping and flashing joints.

Advice
Common problems we fix in Broughton Crossing
Sun, rain and temperature swings wear facade sealant down over the years. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint, and cracks or adhesion loss follow.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Travelodge Aylesbury Hotel, which lies south-west of Broughton Crossing, normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
What to look for in a quote
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Their public liability cover
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- How they’ll work around occupants
What happens if it’s left?
A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Leaks travel along the structure, often turning up far from the joint. Older rural buildings around Broughton Crossing move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Mastic packages on Broughton Crossing sites
Broughton Crossing sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so the external programme keeps a little slack. At about 37 miles from central London, Broughton Crossing is within reach of the capital. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
For contractors at a college like Buckinghamshire College Group, 1.7 miles to the south-west of Broughton Crossing, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays. When units on a site such as Vale Retail Park (to the south-west of Broughton Crossing) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

Quoting for work in Broughton Crossing
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The total length or number of joints
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Before you send an enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Access details, including height
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
General trades versus a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Common questions from Broughton Crossing clients
Does your area include sites such as Vale Retail Park, near Broughton Crossing?
Yes, sites like Vale Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Broughton Crossing. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is a smaller place like Broughton Crossing outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
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.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
