Facade sealing in Goosey

We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, though that isn’t the only cause. We will tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. Most enquiries involve perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and patch repairs that keep failing, across cladding panel joints, stone and brick facade joints and coping and flashing joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Goosey first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

Sites around smaller places like Goosey can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

What the job involves on each surface

Coping and flashing joints

Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.

Cladding panel joints

Where panels are sealed rather than open-jointed, the bead is part of the weather line. We cut out failed joints along their full length and rebuild them with backing and a facade-grade sealant.

Maintenance after handover

For the best life from the joints:

  • Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
  • Record the product and colour used on each elevation
  • Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
  • Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle

Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed.

Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and limits disruption.

Why deal with it now?

Topping up a failed joint usually buys very little time. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. For buildings around smaller places like Goosey, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, 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.

When to bring in a specialist

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

When something else is needed

A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
  • Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
  • Movement beyond what any sealant can handle

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Facades, frames and programmes in Goosey

Goosey is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Goosey is about 61 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.

New units and refits on sites such as Stanford Business Park, 1.2 miles to the north-west of Goosey, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Longworth Hospital, 4.8 miles to the north-west of Goosey, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

Goosey is about 4 miles north-west of Wantage, in Oxfordshire. Commercial clients in Goosey use us for work on facade joints, as part of our coverage of Oxfordshire. Across Oxfordshire, 423 places are covered, including Goosey. Oxford is covered too, around 14 miles from Goosey.

We also cover Denchworth (2 miles east), Charney Bassett (2 miles north-east), Lyford (3 miles north-east), Grove (3 miles east) and Pusey (3 miles north) for facade joints.

Goosey: questions and answers

Is Stanford Business Park, near Goosey, within your area?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Goosey, Stanford Business Park among them, are all within reach. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.

Is a smaller place like Goosey outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

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.

Are you CHAS accredited?

Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.

Can the building stay open while you work?

Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

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

Is old mastic on our building likely to contain asbestos?

In older non-domestic buildings, old sealant can contain asbestos. Check the asbestos register or survey before it is disturbed. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Our process

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Smaller jobs around Goosey can be grouped with others nearby, 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. Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
  3. We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
  4. Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
  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

  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Point out any areas we must not close
