Leave it or put it right?
Every shower drives water through a split perimeter bead. Behind the frame, that can mean damp plaster, stained ceilings, corroded fixings and damaged insulation. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Facade sealing in Fishbourne, done properly
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range. We plan for that and keep you updated. We work on coping and flashing joints, shopfront frames and cladding panel joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and cladding panel joints that have opened up. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Fishbourne from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
On a small site around Fishbourne, the mastic is best done in the fewest visits we can manage. Let us know the key stages and we’ll time the work so nothing waits on us.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Facade sealing around Fishbourne: what changes locally
With the shore within about 3 miles, Fishbourne counts as a coastal location. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. At about 55 miles from central London, Fishbourne is within reach of the capital. 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 campus such as University of Chichester, which lies east of Fishbourne, new teaching buildings and residences are normally built and refurbished around the academic year. Further education sites such as Chichester College, 1 mile east of Fishbourne, are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break. On a healthcare site such as Nuffield Health Chichester Hospital, 1.6 miles north-east of Fishbourne, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.
Fishbourne is about 1 mile west of Chichester, in West Sussex. Looking for facade sealing in Fishbourne? We can help. Fishbourne is one of 373 places we cover in West Sussex for facade joints. We also cover Portsmouth, around 12 miles from Fishbourne.

What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Window and door perimeters

Quoting for work in Fishbourne
To price the job, we consider:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- How accessible the joints are
- The product specified
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Details that help us quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Any specification or named product
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.

What else we do in Fishbourne
On site: what to expect
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Fishbourne need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.
- First we review photos, 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.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
Ask for a quote
Every quote starts with the facts: 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.
Advice
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. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone, and primers go on where specified.
Coping and flashing joints
Sometimes the coping or flashing itself has failed. We tell you if the fix is a roofing or metalwork job rather than a reseal.
Your questions answered
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Chichester?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Nuffield Health Chichester Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
Yes, with some planning. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
How do we ask for a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
What hours do you work?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
