What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.

Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Dry Sandford
Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on offices, blocks and industrial units. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. We work on cladding panel joints, stone and brick facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are new sealant peeling off old mastic and leaks at window and door perimeters. Whoever orders the work in Dry Sandford, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Sites around smaller places like Dry Sandford 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 photographs and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Different surfaces, different methods
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
These frame-to-structure joints take a lot of movement and weather. We cut them out, prepare both faces and reseal to the specification with a product suited to glazing perimeters.
Coping and flashing joints
Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. These joints take full exposure to weather.
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly.

Mastic packages on Dry Sandford sites
Dry Sandford is about 55 miles from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, which keeps mastic packages in demand. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
Building work at universities like Azad University in Oxford (4.6 miles north of Dry Sandford) is often timed for the summer, mastic included. Projects at colleges like Abingdon & Witney College: Abingdon Campus (2.1 miles south-east of Dry Sandford) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as The Dog House Hotel (1.5 miles south-west of Dry Sandford), typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
Dry Sandford is about 2 miles north-west of Abingdon-on-Thames, in Oxfordshire. Dry Sandford sits inside our coverage and the rest of Oxfordshire, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Dry Sandford is one of 423 places we cover in Oxfordshire for facade joints.

FAQs: Dry Sandford
Does your area include sites such as Wootton Business Park, near Dry Sandford?
Yes. We cover Dry Sandford and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Wootton Business Park. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Dry Sandford too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Normally, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Why act early in Dry Sandford
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Coordinating facade sealing with other external works avoids paying for access twice, saving a second set-up. Converted and older buildings near places like Dry Sandford tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
A quote for facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

From enquiry to sign-off
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. Jobs in and around smaller places like Dry Sandford are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First we review photographs, 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.
- 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
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Make sure the joints can be reached
