Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Farley Wood
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, and closed-cell rod sets the depth, keeping the bond to two faces, often at around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises. If you have discoloured or dirty facade joints and failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames, we can help, on cladding panel joints, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Farley Wood it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In a smaller place such as Farley Wood, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Small schemes still need window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant done to the specification.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Commercial clients in Farley Wood
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Farley Wood can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Bracknell Forest.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.
Our process
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. Several jobs near Farley Wood can be grouped on one trip. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

What else we do in Farley Wood
What the job involves on each surface
Coping and flashing joints
Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, with masked edges for a clean line.
Common problems we fix in Farley Wood
A frequent fault is a bead stuck to the joint’s rear face as well as its sides. Without rod or bond-breaker tape, the bead is held back and rips when the facade moves.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
Hospital estates such as Wokingham Hospital (to the west of Farley Wood) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
What to look for in a quote
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- The named product and why it was chosen
When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Shopfront frames
- Window and door perimeters
- Coping and flashing joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Cladding panel joints

Will you check whether the sealant is causing the leak?
Yes. Photos help, and you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to arrange a visit. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all, and we will be honest about which it is.

What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Any access equipment needed
- Removal of failed or old sealant
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What we need to price the job
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- What the building is and how it’s used
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
