Facade sealing for businesses in Ellingham
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Facade sealing in Ellingham, done properly
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site, so the price covers the real job. If you have weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and staining on stone next to old sealant, we can help, on window and door perimeters, stone and brick facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Ellingham tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Ellingham is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. If others near Ellingham need work, visits can be combined. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- Failed beads are removed in full.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Arrange parking or a loading space
Request a quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Cost factors for facade joints
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Location, for remote and island sites
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What to include in your enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- When you need the work done
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The site address and postcode
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote you can plan around. If you have questions first, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us.
Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead, so brief your window cleaners.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail.
Facades, frames and programmes in Ellingham
Rainfall across the South East, Ellingham included, is lower than in many 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.
Projects at schools like Ringwood School Academy work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. New units and refits on sites such as Headlands Business Park (1 mile south-east of Ellingham) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Further education sites such as Sheiling College (2.3 miles south of Ellingham) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break.

Ellingham: questions and answers
Is Ellingham too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Ellingham are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Would you work within a site like St Leonard's Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can you work in cold or wet weather?
Year-round work is possible as long as joints are dry and temperatures suit the product. Cold, damp mornings can delay a start, and we build that into the programme.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes, for 12 months. If a joint fails because of how we installed it, we come back and put it right.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Honest limits
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Providing access systems for the work
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.

What the job involves on each surface
Brick and stone facades
Brick and stone facades have perimeter and movement joints that need a compatible sealant. Neutral-cure products are used because acetoxy types can mark some stone, with primer where its maker specifies.
Window and door perimeters
Aluminium, PVC-U and timber frames each have their own preparation needs. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.
