Doing it in-house
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
About our facade sealing in Leverburgh
Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on offices, blocks and industrial units. Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. The enquiries we see most involve perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and old perimeter mastic that has dried out, on shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and coping and flashing joints.

How a job runs
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. Where we can, we combine work around Leverburgh with other jobs nearby, to make the most of each trip. Let us know if your dates have any give.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- 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.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Quoting for work in Leverburgh
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
What we need to price the job
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
What we’re called out for in Leverburgh
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. UV and weather harden the sealant until it can’t stretch with the building, and cracks or adhesion loss follow.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
Window perimeters and facade joints around Leverburgh need correct width, depth and backing rod as much as a neat finish.
What to look for in a quote
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
Maintenance after handover
For the best life from the joints:
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
Include facade joints in your planned maintenance inspections. Signs to look for are cracking, edges lifting, chalking and stiffness.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. One set-up for several trades saves money and cuts time on site.
Leverburgh: questions and answers
Can you keep pace with our programme in Leverburgh?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Our building in Leverburgh is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Do you take on small jobs?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
