Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Aftercare for building managers
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. Catching a new leak early keeps the repair small.
Building facade joints into a maintenance cycle avoids emergency repairs. Regular checks let you renew joints before water gets in instead of after the damage.
About our facade sealing in Bursledon
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on commercial buildings in Bursledon. Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. If you have cladding panel joints that have opened up and facade joints cracked through the middle, we can put it right, on stone and brick facade joints, cladding panel joints and shopfront frames alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Bursledon first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For a contractor on a smaller site near Bursledon, one mastic visit at the right stage saves return trips. Tell us when scaffold comes down and when decoration finishes, and we will plan around those stages.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Facade sealing around Bursledon: points for this area
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Bursledon. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. Bursledon 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.
New units and refits on sites such as Ensign Way Business Park, 2.1 miles to the south of Bursledon, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. When a college such as Itchen College (to the north-west of Bursledon) builds or refurbishes, the mastic package usually has to fit around students and staff. Hospital estates such as Fareham Community Hospital, 2.1 miles south-east of Bursledon, 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.
Bursledon is about 2 miles south of Hedge End, in Hampshire. Bursledon sits inside our coverage and the rest of Hampshire, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Bursledon is one of 723 places we cover in Hampshire for facade joints.

General trades versus a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
On site: what to expect
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Bursledon need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.
- We start with photographs, 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 and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies 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
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

Advice
When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Work on the window or framing system itself
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal

Questions we are asked in Bursledon
Could you schedule work at a campus like Solent University for the vacation?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Fareham Community Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Can you work in cold or wet weather?
We can work through the year, but sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures within the product’s range. Cold, damp mornings can delay a start.
