How we handle facade sealing in Burghfield
Sealant around windows, doors and cladding panels stops rain reaching the wall behind. When a perimeter bead splits or peels, water finds its way behind frames and into the structure. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. Most enquiries involve hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and patch repairs that keep failing, across coping and flashing joints, cladding panel joints and window and door perimeters. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Burghfield, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Sites around smaller places like Burghfield can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.
Work we carry out in West Berkshire comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Can you handle several sites?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, with one point of contact.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.

Facade sealing around Burghfield: how the place shapes the job
Burghfield sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. The area within 2 miles of Burghfield holds several hotels. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
When units on a site such as Theale Lakes Business Park, 1.3 miles to the north-west of Burghfield, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

For contractors on a campus like University of Reading, 4.9 miles to the north-east of Burghfield, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates.

What else we do in Burghfield
When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Providing access systems for the work
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Coping and flashing joints
- Shopfront frames
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Cladding panel joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Window and door perimeters
Aftercare for building managers
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed.
Check older buildings for asbestos before disturbing old mastic. Some older mastics contain it, and work stops until it’s tested if it’s suspected.
Surface by surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast arrises sometimes crumble or carry old residue. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair before sealing.
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.
Doing it in-house
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.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
