From enquiry to sign-off
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. Work in places the size of Corringham is planned as a single visit where we can. Clear photographs and measurements help us bring the right products.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- 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.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Advice
Sites and facades in and around Corringham
Corringham sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. Corringham is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. 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.
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Basildon University Hospital, 2.5 miles north of Corringham, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. When a college such as Performers College, 0.9 miles to the north-west of Corringham, builds or refurbishes, the mastic package normally has to fit around students and staff.
Corringham is about 3 miles south of Basildon, in Thurrock. Commercial clients in Corringham can call on us for facade joints, as part of our coverage of Thurrock. Our Thurrock coverage takes in 27 places, large and small. There’s a separate page for London, roughly 24 miles from Corringham.

Questions we are asked in Corringham
Is a hospital such as Basildon University Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Corringham, such as London Gateway Logistics Park?
Yes. Our area takes in Corringham and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as London Gateway Logistics Park included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
How much does the work cost?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.

What sets the cost
To price the job, we consider:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Which sealant the job calls for
- How accessible the joints are
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings if you’d rather talk the job through.

Cladding panel joints
Where panels are sealed rather than open-jointed, the bead is part of the weather line. We cut out failed joints along their full length and rebuild them.
Window and door perimeters
Frame-to-wall joints at windows and doors are the facade joints we reseal most. A low-modulus neutral-cure product, chosen for the frame and wall, goes in, tooled to shed water.
Looking after the joints
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards with a compatible product.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and cuts time on site.
When to bring in a specialist
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
What we’re called out for in Corringham
Three-sided adhesion is a classic installation fault. With no backing, the sealant is restrained and tears as the joint moves.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
For contractors at a school such as Ortu Corringham Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
