How we handle facade sealing in Friday Street

A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear. If you have air leaks through failed facade joints and leaks at window and door perimeters, we can help, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Friday Street, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Around smaller places like Friday Street, building work normally means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.

Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

General trades versus a specialist

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

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 the job changes by surface

Precast concrete panels

Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair.

Cladding panel joints

Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, as the specification sets out.

What affects the price in Friday Street

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Working within restricted access windows
  • The product specified
  • Quantities, in metres or numbers

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

Sending details for a quote

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:

  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Any specification or named product
  • The postcode of the building
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them

For a fixed quote, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. You can also send details through our quote form.

When it isn’t the sealant

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:

  • Providing access systems for the work
  • Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
  • Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry

If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer.

Surfaces we seal

  • Window and door perimeters
  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Shopfront frames
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Stone and brick facade joints

How a job runs

On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work normally takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. If others near Friday Street need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
  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. Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
  5. Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
  6. We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Let building users know which areas are affected

Getting a fixed quote

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

Advice

FAQs: Friday Street

Does your area include sites such as Chapel Lane Industrial Estate, near Friday Street?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Friday Street, Chapel Lane Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Will you fit the mastic around our build programme in Friday Street?

Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.

Does the weather affect the work?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.

How many days will you need on site?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

What do you charge?

Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Can you fit around our working hours?

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.

Can you just add new sealant on top?

No. A bead run over old sealant soon lifts. Our method is a full cut-out, cleaning, backing and a new bead.

Facade sealing around Friday Street: what changes locally

Friday Street is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. At about 24 miles from central London, Friday Street is within reach of the capital. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.

Projects at schools like Belmont Prep School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Chapel Lane Industrial Estate (to the north-east of Friday Street) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. Older buildings in the area around Friday Street, such as Polesden Lacey, which lies north of Friday Street, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.
