Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Forest Corner

We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, but not always. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. We work on cladding panel joints, window and door perimeters and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are leaks at window and door perimeters and cladding panel joints that have opened up. Whoever orders the work in Forest Corner, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

In the countryside around places like Forest Corner, 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.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

What affects the price in Forest Corner

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:

  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • The product specified
  • Any access equipment needed
  • Working within restricted access windows

There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.

What we need to price the job

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:

  • When you need the work done
  • The site address and postcode
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Honest limits

A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:

  • Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
  • Damaged frames that need replacing
  • Specialist high-level access methods

Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Building and refurbishing in Forest Corner

The area within 2 miles of Forest Corner holds several hotels. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up. Forest Corner sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.

With historic properties like Avon Tyrrell House (to the south of Forest Corner) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants. School extensions, at buildings such as Poulner Infant School, usually run to the summer holidays, mastic included. New units and refits on sites such as Platinum Jubilee Business Park, 1.4 miles south-west of Forest Corner, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

FAQs: Forest Corner

Is a hospital such as St Leonard's Hospital somewhere you can work?

Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.

Is Forest Corner too small for you to travel to?

Not at all. Forest Corner is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

How long does a job like this take?

It depends on the scope, though a typical visit normally takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.

What hours do you work?

Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.

Does the weather affect the work?

It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

How soon can the area be used again?

Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.

What site paperwork can you supply?

Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.

Doing it in-house

Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.

How a job runs

At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Rural sites near Forest Corner may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.

  1. We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
  2. We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
  3. We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
  4. Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
  5. Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
  6. We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Ask for a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, ring 01277 525 020 or email us.

Looking after the joints

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:

  • Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
  • Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
  • Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
  • Clear debris that holds water against joints

Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead, so brief your window cleaners.

Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading.

Owners, agents and contractors

If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.

Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Forest Corner. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
