About our facade sealing in Broughton

External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year, so they don’t last indefinitely. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. If you’re dealing with staining on stone next to old sealant and perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away, we can help. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Broughton tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Building work in places the size of Broughton is usually small-scale: a handful of new houses, barn conversions, a school or hall extension. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.

Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

How a job runs

Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For a job in Broughton, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. You will then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
  2. Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
  3. Failed beads are removed 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. We go over the completed work with you before leaving.

What we need from you

  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Advice

Questions about Broughton

Do you cover business parks and estates near Broughton, such as Wavendon Business Park?

Yes. We cover Broughton and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Wavendon Business Park. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Is Broughton too far out for you?

No. Places such as Broughton are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it.

Can you quote from photos?

It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.

Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?

Yes. The 12-month guarantee covers our preparation and application, but not damage, misuse or other trades’ work.

Do you install glazing systems?

No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, such as perimeter joints where frames meet the structure.

What sets the cost

These are the things that shape the price:

  • How much there is to seal
  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • How accessible the joints are

A quote for facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Details that help us quote

We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:

  • The product your specification calls for
  • Access details, including height
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
  • The site address and postcode

For a fixed quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. You can also send details through our quote form.

When to call us in Broughton

The wrong product causes its share of trouble: an acetoxy cure can mark stone or corrode some metals, and interior products break down outdoors. Most external joints call for a neutral-cure, facade-grade sealant.

Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:

  • Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
  • Previous reseals run over old sealant
  • Draughts around frames and panels
  • Failed sealant on precast panel joints

Further education sites such as Milton Keynes College (to the south-west of Broughton) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Their public liability cover
  • The named product and why it was chosen
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee

Our contractor checklist

Surface by surface

Precast concrete panels

Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair.

Perimeter joints at frames and structure

These frame-to-structure joints take a lot of movement and weather. They are cut out, cleaned, backed and resealed.

Leave it or put it right?

Topping up a failed joint usually buys very little time. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.

The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

What you get with us

  • CHAS accredited contractor
  • Old sealant cut out, never sealed over
  • Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
  • Public liability insurance in place

Take a look at what affects the cost and our accreditations.

Maintenance after handover

Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:

  • Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
  • Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
  • Investigate damp beside windows promptly
  • Clear debris that holds water against joints

After heavy weather, check vulnerable elevations for signs of water inside. An early report typically means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.

Get the joint design right when resealing: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. Repeating a faulty detail just repeats the failure.

Facade sealing around Broughton: how the place shapes the job

At about 46 miles from central London, Broughton is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Broughton. Hotel extensions and refits typically have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.

Building work at universities like The Open University (to the south of Broughton) is often timed for the summer, mastic included. Projects at schools like Broughton Fields Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.
