About our facade sealing in Fewcott
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. The enquiries we see most involve previous reseals run over old sealant and cold air coming in at window perimeters, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, window and door perimeters and shopfront frames. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Fewcott? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
In the countryside around places like Fewcott, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll come back to it.

When to call us in Fewcott
Adhesive failure, where the sealant peels away from one face, usually comes from poor preparation. Contamination, moisture or skipping the primer the maker specifies leave a weak bond, and the joint opens with the first real movement.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
When units on a site such as Baynards Green Trading Estate (1.2 miles north-east of Fewcott) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- What site paperwork they can supply
After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
Anything drilled through a facade joint breaks the seal. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards with a compatible product.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it.
Leave it or put it right?
The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Early action keeps it simple. Converted and older buildings near places like Fewcott tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Our process
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Rural sites near Fewcott may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Getting the site ready
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

Can you work on a hospital site such as Bicester Community Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
When can you be on site?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. We check the sealant joints and report what we find as part of pricing. If the water seems to come from a roof, sill or the glazing unit instead, we say so.
Facade sealing in Fewcott: the local picture
Central London is about 57 miles from Fewcott. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
