Building owners, agents and FMs in Compton
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
How we handle facade sealing in Compton
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, but not always. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. If you are dealing with failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and old perimeter mastic that has dried out, we can help. Whoever orders the work in Compton, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Around smaller places like Compton, building work typically means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Surface by surface
Coping and flashing joints
Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. They sit in the most exposed positions on the building and need a durable external sealant.
Cladding panel joints
Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, as the specification sets out.
Common questions from Compton clients
Could you schedule work at a campus like University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus for the vacation?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Can you work at a site such as Home Farm Business Park, by Compton?
Yes. We cover Compton and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Home Farm Business Park. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, though not damage or work by other trades.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Can you fit around our working hours?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
Leave it or put it right?
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds and avoids repeat call-outs. For buildings around smaller places like Compton, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

New build and refits around Compton
Compton is about 30 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Rainfall across the South East, Compton included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
Further education sites such as Godalming College (2.6 miles south of Compton) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Royal Surrey County Hospital (2.1 miles north-east of Compton), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. When a school such as Loseley Fields Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Cladding panel joints
- Coping and flashing joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
What affects the price in Compton
Before we quote, we look at:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The total length or number of joints
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Any access equipment needed
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
