About our facade sealing in Jedburgh

Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. When a perimeter bead splits or peels, water finds its way behind frames and into the structure. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. If you’re dealing with failed sealant on precast panel joints and sealant pulling away from frames or panels, we can help, on cladding panel joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and window and door perimeters alike. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Jedburgh from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.

In smaller places such as Jedburgh, building work tends to be single schemes rather than big developments. The mastic still needs to suit exposed elevations and Scottish weather.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

When to call us in Jedburgh

Product choice matters: acetoxy-cure silicone may mark stone or corrode certain metals, and an interior product won’t last outdoors. Most external joints call for a neutral-cure, facade-grade sealant.

Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:

  • New sealant peeling off old mastic
  • Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
  • Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
  • Discoloured or dirty facade joints

Hotels like Royal Hotel, less than half a mile to the west of Jedburgh, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Different surfaces, different methods

Precast concrete panels

Precast arrises sometimes crumble or carry old residue. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair.

Window and door perimeters

Window and door perimeters make up most facade sealing work. A low-modulus, neutral-cure product suits most frame-to-wall joints, tooled to shed water.

On site: what to expect

Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For a building near Jedburgh, directions, keys and a contact on the day are worth sorting early. That goes into the plan alongside the quote.

  1. We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
  2. The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
  3. Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
  4. Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
  5. The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
  6. The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.

What we need from you

  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Move anything stored against the joints

Advice

Contractors’ notes for Jedburgh

Being in the east of Scotland, Jedburgh gets less rain than the west coast. Frost and condensation on frames and panels can still hold up external mastic on winter mornings. We agree external dates with the site team and keep internal work ready. A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Jedburgh. When hotels extend or refit, the work is usually squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.

School extensions, at buildings such as Jedburgh Grammar School, usually run to the summer holidays, mastic included. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Bongate Industrial Estate (0.5 miles north of Jedburgh), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

Keeping the joints sound

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
  • Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
  • Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
  • Don’t wait for a second leak before calling

Include facade joints in your planned maintenance inspections. Watch for splits, gaps at the edges, hardening and discolouration; note where they appear.

Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. One set-up for several trades saves money and limits disruption.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

Questions about Jedburgh

Can you keep pace with our programme in Jedburgh?

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 Jedburgh off your patch?

Not at all. Jedburgh is within our area. Our area covers all of Scotland, cities, towns and islands alike. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Do you install glazing systems?

No. That work needs a glazing specialist. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters on commercial buildings.

Do you take on small jobs?

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

Do you use silicone for external joints?

Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, as the specification or substrate requires.

Can you find out why a window is leaking?

Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all.

Do you hold CHAS accreditation?

Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

How the quote is worked out

There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:

  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants

Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

What to include in your enquiry

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • When you need the work done
  • The site address and postcode
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours

To get a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the site address and an outline of the work. You can also send details through our quote form.
