Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Hodsoll Street

We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. Most enquiries involve staining on stone next to old sealant and cladding panel joints that have opened up, across shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Whoever orders the work in Hodsoll Street, the brief is typically the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Construction in and around smaller places such as Hodsoll Street 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.

We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Our process

We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For a building around Hodsoll Street, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.

  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. 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. Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Point out any areas we must not close

Sites and facades in and around Hodsoll Street

Hodsoll Street 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. Central London is about 21 miles from Hodsoll Street. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.

When units on a site such as Bowes Industrial Centre (1.8 miles north-east of Hodsoll Street) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Historic houses such as Cobham College, 4.5 miles north-east of Hodsoll Street, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. For contractors at a school such as Culverstone Green Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.

What affects the price in Hodsoll Street

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

  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • The product specified
  • The total length or number of joints

There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

What to include in your enquiry

We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:

  • The product your specification calls for
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Your programme or deadline

Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.

What we can’t put right

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:

  • Damp caused by condensation inside the building
  • Render or concrete edges that have broken away
  • Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

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

Hodsoll Street: questions and answers

Can the mastic package for our job in Hodsoll Street follow the site programme?

Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.

Is a smaller place like Hodsoll Street outside your area?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can you look at water coming in around a frame?

Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all, and we will tell you which.

Is any job too small?

Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

What do you charge?

There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.

Can you work in cold or wet weather?

Wet joints or temperatures outside the product’s range mean waiting. We plan for weather and keep you updated as the work goes on.

Which sealant will you use?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

After the work

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:

  • Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
  • Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
  • Investigate damp beside windows promptly
  • Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed

If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Ask the installer to reseal it properly.

In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it, and work stops until it’s tested if it’s suspected.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hodsoll Street

A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Leaks travel along the structure, so the real damage is often some distance away. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Hodsoll Street, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
