Facade sealing for Clatterford sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Doing it in-house
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance 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.
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Clatterford
Managing agents and owners in Clatterford ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. The enquiries we see most involve weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and cold air coming in at window perimeters, on coping and flashing joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and stone and brick facade joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Clatterford first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Sites around smaller places like Clatterford can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

How a job runs
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. For work around Clatterford, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Before we start on site
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Sites and facades in and around Clatterford
Clatterford is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Clatterford. When hotels extend or refit, the work is usually squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
Projects at schools like St Thomas of Canterbury Catholic Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. On a healthcare site such as Laidlaw Day Hospital (1.8 miles north-east of Clatterford), new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. Projects at colleges like HTP Apprenticeship College (1.4 miles north-east of Clatterford) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
Clatterford is about 1 mile south-west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. We send applicators to Clatterford for facade joints. Our the Isle of Wight coverage takes in 125 places, from busy centres to rural villages. We also cover Portsmouth, around 13 miles from Clatterford.

Sites close to Clatterford are covered too, including Carisbrooke (1 mile north), Plaish (1 mile south-west), Gunville (1 mile north), Bowcombe (1 mile south-west) and Gatcombe (2 miles south). Bigger towns within reach include Ryde (7 miles east), Cowes (5 miles north), Sandown (7 miles east), Shanklin (7 miles south-east), Ventnor (8 miles south-east) and East Cowes (5 miles north). Island and remote sites need extra planning, with travel, ferry crossings where needed and weather to allow for, so give the site location in your enquiry.

Common questions from Clatterford clients
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like HTP Apprenticeship College?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is Mountjoy Industrial Estate, near Clatterford, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Clatterford and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Mountjoy Industrial Estate included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. The dutyholder’s asbestos register should be checked first. Removal of asbestos isn’t something we do.
Do you work in Clatterford?
Yes. We take on work across Clatterford, and the same phone number covers every area.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
Can you quote from photos?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Coping and flashing joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure

How the job changes by surface
Window and door perimeters
Aluminium, PVC-U and timber frames each have their own preparation needs. We clean and prime to the sealant maker’s guidance for each surface.
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. Faces are cleaned to sound concrete, and damaged edges are reported first.
Owners, agents and contractors
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
Cost factors for facade joints
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Joint width, depth and condition
- How accessible the joints are
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What we need to price the job
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Your programme or deadline
