Facade sealing in Farnham
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. When a perimeter bead splits or peels, water finds its way behind frames and into the structure. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. We work on shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and stone and brick facade joints, and what we’re called in for most is perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and cold air coming in at window perimeters. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Farnham? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Many towns of Farnham’s size have older buildings being converted or extended, which puts new frames and panels against old brick, stone or render. Getting the product and primer right for both faces is what keeps those joints sound.
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.

Common problems we fix in Farnham
Adhesive failure, where the sealant peels away from one face, normally comes from poor preparation. Contamination, moisture or skipping the primer the maker specifies leave a weak bond, and movement soon pulls it away.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
- Draughts around frames and panels
For a contractor at a hotel such as Hotel de Vie, under half a mile to the south of Farnham, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.
What your quote should include
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
Looking after the joints
After handover, these steps help:
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. Future work can then match the product and colour.
Get the joint design right when resealing: the right width, backing rod and a sealant with enough movement capability. A well-designed joint lasts longer than a like-for-like copy of a failed one.
Why it’s worth doing now in Farnham
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, saving a second set-up. In Farnham, as anywhere, the simplest time to fix a failed joint is before it leaks. After a leak, there’s drying, repairs and redecoration on top.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.

How a job runs
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us.

- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
