Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Brunswick
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. Most enquiries involve draughts around frames and panels and failed sealant on precast panel joints, across shopfront frames, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and stone and brick facade joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Brunswick, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Conversions around smaller places like Brunswick often join new frames to old masonry or timber, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Contractors’ notes for Brunswick
Brunswick sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. Central London is about 47 miles from Brunswick. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
Hotels like Abbey Hotel (to the north of Brunswick) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor. University estates such as University of Brighton Moulesecoomb Campus (to the north-east of Brunswick) tend to have a rolling programme of new buildings and refurbishments, each with window perimeters and facade joints to seal. When units on a site such as Goldstone Retail Park (1.3 miles north-west of Brunswick) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
Brunswick is about 1 mile south-west of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. We cover commercial sites throughout Brunswick. Across Brighton and Hove, 29 places are covered, Brunswick among them.

What affects the price in Brunswick
What shapes the price:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- The product specified
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Phasing around occupants
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Details that help us quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Specification clauses that apply
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Cladding panel joints
- Coping and flashing joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Window and door perimeters
- Stone and brick facade joints
Brunswick: questions and answers
Our building in Brunswick is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like The Montefiore Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. Photos help, and you can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over to arrange a visit. Failed perimeter sealant is a common cause, but not the only one, and we’ll be honest about which it is.
How long before the joints can be used?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, with one point of contact.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. A bead run over old sealant soon lifts. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?
It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. One set-up for several trades saves money and cuts time on site.

Commercial clients in Brunswick
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Surface by surface
Coping and flashing joints
Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. These joints take full exposure to weather, so preparation and product choice matter.
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Several jobs near Brunswick can be grouped on one trip. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.
- We start with photos, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- The existing bead comes out in full.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
Preparing the site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
