Facade sealing across Lonemore

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

What sets the cost

Before we quote, we look at:

  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Any access equipment needed
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Which sealant the job calls for

Pricing facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Details that help us quote

A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:

  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • When you need the work done
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Lonemore

Managing agents and owners in Lonemore ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. Either way, the method is the same: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on shopfront frames, cladding panel joints and stone and brick facade joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are staining on stone next to old sealant and failed sealant on precast panel joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Lonemore from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

External sealing around Lonemore depends on dry faces and the right temperature. A little flexibility in the programme lets external joints go in on suitable days.

Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Surface by surface

Render and coated surfaces

Rendered and painted facades need a sound edge for the sealant to bond to. We remove flaking material so the bead bonds to a firm surface.

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.

Our process

The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Tell us who will meet us and how to get in at your building near Lonemore. We’ll confirm the plan with the fixed 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. Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
  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.

Preparing the site

  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings
  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Make sure the joints can be reached

Should maintenance staff do it?

Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance 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.

Mastic packages on Lonemore sites

Lonemore lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. The area within 2 miles of Lonemore holds several hotels. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.

Work at a hotel such as Millcroft Hotel (to the east of Lonemore) tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.

Questions about Lonemore

Is Lonemore too far out for you?

Not at all. Lonemore is within our area. We cover the whole of Scotland. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

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

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.

Can the building stay open while you work?

In most cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.

What will the job cost?

Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with a description of the work.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

Who decides which product is used?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

How many days will you need on site?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.

Common problems we fix in Lonemore

When sealant lets go of a frame or panel, the cause is often the preparation. Contamination, moisture or skipping the primer the maker specifies leave a weak bond.

Look out for the following:

  • Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
  • Draughts around frames and panels
  • Facade joints cracked through the middle
  • Damp patches beside frames after rain

For contractors at a school such as Gairloch High School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
