Facade sealing in High Cross
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about water coming in around window frames and new sealant peeling off old mastic, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints. For commercial sealant work in High Cross, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

Your questions answered
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Petersfield Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Can you keep pace with our programme in High Cross?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
How is access to upper-level joints handled?
That comes down to the access arranged for the job. Share what access exists or is planned when you send details, and we will agree the approach together.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. We check the sealant joints and report what we find. If the water seems to come from a roof, sill or the glazing unit instead, we say so.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
How the job changes by surface
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one, and mask the edges carefully.
Window and door perimeters
Perimeter joints move as frames expand and contract in the sun. The rod limits depth, leaving the bead able to flex without tearing.
Our process
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work normally takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. For a building around High Cross, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Getting the site ready
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

When something else is needed
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Shopfront frames
Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
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.
Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones inside the building.
Doing it in-house
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Contractors’ notes for High Cross
High Cross sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack. High Cross lies roughly 50 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
School extensions, at buildings such as Froxfield Church of England Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Petersfield Hospital (2.8 miles south-east of High Cross), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
