Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Providing access systems for the work
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.

How we handle facade sealing in Foulford
Most facade joint failures trace back to the joint, not just the sealant. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, and closed-cell rod sets the depth, keeping the bond to two faces, often at around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises. If you’re dealing with hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and sealant pulling away from frames or panels, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Foulford, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For a site near Foulford, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photographs and the programme and we will quote to suit.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Cost factors for facade joints
What shapes the price:
- The size and state of each joint
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Any access equipment needed
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Before you send an enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

What else we do in Foulford
Why act early in Foulford
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. Halls, stores and units around places like Foulford may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
Why appoint us
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Colour agreed before work starts
- Fully insured

Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters
Aluminium, PVC-U and timber frames each have their own preparation needs. We clean and prime to the sealant maker’s guidance for each surface.
Cladding panel joints
On sealed panel systems, every joint keeps water out. We cut out failed joints along their full length and rebuild them.
Mastic packages on Foulford sites
Foulford sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
New wings at hospitals like St Leonard's Hospital, 5.5 miles to the south-west of Foulford, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Platinum Jubilee Business Park, 1.6 miles to the west of Foulford, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. Projects at schools like Ringwood School Academy work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

Common questions from Foulford clients
Will you take on work at estates like Platinum Jubilee Business Park, close to Foulford?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Foulford, Platinum Jubilee Business Park among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like St Leonard's Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will rain stop the work?
Year-round work is possible as long as joints are dry and temperatures suit the product. Cold, damp mornings can delay a start, so we plan around the forecast.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
How a job runs
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. Smaller jobs around Foulford can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- The existing bead comes out in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
Before we start on site
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Advice
Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. Future work can then match the product and colour.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and limits disruption.
