Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Liverton Street

Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day, and they wear out over time. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. The enquiries we see most involve cold air coming in at window perimeters and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, on coping and flashing joints, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters. For commercial sealant work in Liverton Street, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

Construction in and around smaller places such as Liverton 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.

The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

After the work

To get the most from the new sealant:

  • Clear debris that holds water against joints
  • Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
  • Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
  • Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed

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.

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.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Cost factors for facade joints

What shapes the price:

  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Access and working height
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • The product specified

The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Details that help us quote

A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:

  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • Where the site is, with the postcode
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Our process

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. For work around Liverton Street, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  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. A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
  6. The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.

What we need from you

  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

Ask for a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Facade sealing in Liverton Street: the local picture

Liverton Street is about 39 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. There are a number of hotels within about 2 miles of Liverton Street. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.

For a contractor at a hotel such as Chilston Park Hotel, 1.3 miles to the east of Liverton Street, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Roebuck Business Park, 1.7 miles north of Liverton Street, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. With historic properties like Leeds Castle (to the north-west of Liverton Street) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.

Liverton Street is about 8 miles south-east of Maidstone, in Kent. Our applicators travel to Liverton Street for work on facade joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area.

What we can’t put right

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:

  • Providing access systems for the work
  • Installing or repairing glazing systems
  • Damp caused by condensation inside the building

If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

What we seal

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

Owners, agents and contractors

Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

Liverton Street: questions and answers

Will you take on work at estates like Roebuck Business Park, close to Liverton Street?

Yes, sites like Roebuck Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Liverton Street. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Is Liverton Street too small for you to travel to?

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.

What will the job cost?

Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over with a description of the work.

Who decides which product is used?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

Do you install glazing systems?

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

How is access to upper-level joints handled?

We agree access with the client at the start. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you are arranging and any site restrictions, and the quote will reflect it.

Which sealant do you use on facades?

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.
