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, so preparation and product choice matter.
Render and coated surfaces
Sealant can only hold as well as the render or paint beneath it. Loose coatings are cleaned back first, and we’ll mention any edges that need repair.
About our facade sealing in East Guldeford
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear, often at around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises. Site teams most often ask us about unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away, on window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and coping and flashing joints.

Work for main contractors and building owners
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Looking after the joints
After handover, these steps help:
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Keep high-pressure jets and strong chemicals away from new sealant and tell your cleaning contractor.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Regular checks let you renew joints before water gets in, rather than waiting for a ceiling stain.

What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Any access equipment needed
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Whether the work must be split into stages
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
What we need to price the job
However big the job, the same details help:
- Access details, including height
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

What else we do in East Guldeford
When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. For work around East Guldeford, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
