Facade sealing for Letcombe Regis sites
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What the job involves on each surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Perimeter joints at frames often show their age first. They are cut out, cleaned, backed and resealed with a product suited to glazing perimeters.
Render and coated surfaces
Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. The choice depends on the specification and finish.
Facade sealing in Letcombe Regis, done properly
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. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, coping and flashing joints and cladding panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are leaks at window and door perimeters and failed sealant on precast panel joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Letcombe Regis it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller places like Letcombe Regis, building work normally means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. 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. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

What happens if it’s left?
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. 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 Letcombe Regis. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

FAQs: Letcombe Regis
Can you work on a hospital site such as Wantage Community Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Letcombe Regis off your patch?
No. Places such as Letcombe Regis are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Do you use silicone for external joints?
It depends on the joint, the substrate and any specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them, and we work to what is specified.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
How much does the work cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Sending details for a quote

Building and refurbishing in Letcombe Regis
Letcombe Regis sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Central London is about 59 miles from Letcombe Regis. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Extensions at sites like Wantage Community Hospital, 1.7 miles to the north-east of Letcombe Regis, normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. School extensions, at buildings such as St Nicholas CofE Primary School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included. Hotels like The Bear Hotel, 1.3 miles to the north-east of Letcombe Regis, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.
Letcombe Regis is about 2 miles south-west of Wantage, in Oxfordshire.

Advice
After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
- Share access with other external trades
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead and tell your cleaning contractor.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. One set-up for several trades saves money.
