For managing agents and facilities managers
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Elmer can sit alongside others in a wider programme across West Sussex.
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
About our facade sealing in Elmer
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Let us know what access exists or is planned, and any site rules we need to work around. Most enquiries involve weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters and new sealant peeling off old mastic, across coping and flashing joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and cladding panel joints. For commercial sealant work in Elmer, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
In a smaller place such as Elmer, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in West Sussex. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will come back to it.

Our process
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. What matters most for a job in Elmer is a clear list of what needs doing. A fixed quote follows.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- The existing bead comes out in full.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
Before we start on site
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Point out any areas we must not close
Quotes
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Do you need facade sealing in Elmer?
Cohesive failure, a split through the middle of the bead, points to an over-stretched joint. Too thin a bead, too narrow a joint or a product with the wrong movement class are common reasons.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Rudford Industrial Estate, 1.8 miles north-east of Elmer, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
What your quote should include
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- What site paperwork they can supply
Maintenance after handover
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Share access with other external trades
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Keep high-pressure jets and strong chemicals away from new sealant, so brief your window cleaners.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. One set-up for several trades saves money and cuts time on site.
What we can’t put right
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Work on the window or framing system itself
- Damaged frames that need replacing
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Cladding panel joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Shopfront frames
Why deal with it now?
If access is already up for other work, resealing at the same time makes sense. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once, which is often the biggest saving. Small buildings around Elmer suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Why clients in Elmer choose us
- One number for every site we cover

Elmer: questions and answers
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Chichester (Bognor Campus)?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Is a hospital such as Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
When can you be on site?
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.
Will you quote for a small job?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Can you find out why a window is leaking?
Yes. We look at the perimeter sealant and tell you whether it has failed as part of pricing. If the water seems to come from a roof, sill or the glazing unit instead, we say so.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.

New build and refits around Elmer
Elmer 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, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. Central London is about 54 miles from Elmer. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
On a campus such as University of Chichester (Bognor Campus), which lies west of Elmer, new teaching buildings and residences are usually built and refurbished around the academic year. New wings at hospitals like Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital, 2.9 miles to the west of Elmer, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.
