Facade sealing across Hempton
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
After the work
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade rather than sitting against the joints.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Older sealants can contain asbestos, and if it’s suspected, we stop until it has been tested.
About our facade sealing in Hempton
Sealant around windows, doors and cladding panels stops rain reaching the wall behind. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We remove failed sealant and install a new bead chosen for the joint and how far it moves. If you are dealing with cold air coming in at window perimeters and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Hempton it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Hempton is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Oxfordshire. If an installation problem shows up, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will arrange a return visit.

Sites and facades in and around Hempton
Rainfall across the South East, Hempton included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. A 2-mile radius around Hempton takes in a number of hotels. Hotel extensions and refits typically have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
Historic houses such as Broughton Castle, 4.3 miles north-west of Hempton, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. Hospital estates such as Horton General Hospital (to the north of Hempton) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.

When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Work on the window or framing system itself
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

On site: what to expect
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work usually takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Jobs in and around smaller places like Hempton are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- Failed beads are removed in full and both faces cleaned back.
- 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.
Preparing the site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
Ask for a quote
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.

Cost factors for facade joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Working within restricted access windows
- The product specified
- The site’s rules and procedures
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
What to include in your enquiry
However big the job, the same details help:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Specification clauses that apply
- Any dates the work must fit around
- What the building is and how it’s used
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
What the job involves on each surface
Cladding panel joints
On sealed panel systems, every joint keeps water out. Failed runs are cut out and rebuilt end to end with backing and a facade-grade sealant.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. We seal those perimeter joints, not the framing or glazing itself.

Common problems we fix in Hempton
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. UV and weather harden the sealant until it can’t stretch with the building.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Station Yard Industrial Estate, 2.6 miles to the north-east of Hempton, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Their public liability cover
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
