About our facade sealing in Farlington
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 sealant pulling away from frames or panels and new sealant peeling off old mastic, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, stone and brick facade joints and cladding panel joints. For commercial sealant work in Farlington, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
For a contractor on a smaller site near Farlington, one mastic visit at the right stage saves return trips. Let us know the key stages and we will time the work so nothing waits on us.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Share access with other external trades
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
Anything drilled through a facade joint breaks the seal. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards using a matching sealant.
Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones inside the building.
When to bring in a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Your questions answered
Our building in Farlington is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Is Railway Triangle Industrial Estate, near Farlington, within your area?
Yes. We cover Farlington and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Railway Triangle Industrial Estate. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Do you guarantee your work?
Yes, for 12 months. If our installation fails in that time, we return and fix it.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder, so ask for it before we start. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely. That is what makes the new joint last.
From enquiry to sign-off
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. Several jobs near Farlington can be grouped on one trip. Tell us your site hours and we’ll plan around them.

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, and primers go on where specified.
Render and coated surfaces
Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. The choice depends on the specification and finish.
Facades, frames and programmes in Farlington
With the shore within about 1 mile, Farlington counts as a coastal location. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. Central London is about 61 miles from Farlington. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
On a healthcare site such as Queen Alexandra Hospital, 1.6 miles to the west of Farlington, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. Projects at schools like Solent Infant School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Railway Triangle Industrial Estate, 1 mile south-west of Farlington, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.
