About our facade sealing in Lower Bourne
External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year, so they don’t last indefinitely. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. If you have previous reseals run over old sealant and weathered facade joints that have lost their grip, we can put it right, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, coping and flashing joints and shopfront frames alike. Whoever orders the work in Lower Bourne, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Building work in places the size of Lower Bourne is normally small-scale: a handful of new houses, barn conversions, a school or hall extension. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will come back to it.

Mastic packages on Lower Bourne sites
Lower Bourne is about 37 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Lower Bourne sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
When units on a site such as Hookstile Trading Estate, 0.9 miles north of Lower Bourne, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Work at a hotel such as Hotel de Vie, 0.9 miles to the north of Lower Bourne, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included. On a campus such as University for the Creative Arts, which lies north-west of Lower Bourne, new teaching buildings and residences are usually built and refurbished around the academic year.
Lower Bourne is about 1 mile south of Farnham, in Surrey. Anywhere in GU10, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Lower Bourne is one of 379 places we cover in Surrey for facade joints. There’s a separate page for Reading, about 19 miles away.
Anyone looking for facade sealing in GU10 and GU9 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Among the streets we cover are Fox Road, Ford Lane and Kiln Lane. With the A287 nearby, Lower Bourne is straightforward for us to reach. Just outside Lower Bourne, we also work in Tilford Reeds (1 mile south-east), Shortfield Common (1 mile south), Millbridge (2 miles south), Tilford (2 miles east) and Frensham (2 miles south). Further afield, our area takes in Guildford (10 miles east), Woking (12 miles north-east), Camberley (10 miles north), Frimley (8 miles north), Haslemere (8 miles south) and Cranleigh (14 miles east).

Commercial clients in Lower Bourne
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.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Aftercare for building managers
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Share access with other external trades
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Signs to look for are cracking, edges lifting, chalking and stiffness; note where they appear.
Check older buildings for asbestos before disturbing old mastic. Some older mastics contain it, and work stops until it’s tested if it’s suspected.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
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.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
If you are not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.

On site: what to expect
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. What matters most for a job in Lower Bourne is a clear list of what needs doing. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Advice
Why deal with it now?
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts, so the real damage is often some distance away. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Wet joints or temperatures outside the product’s range mean waiting. The programme allows for it and we tell you if the forecast changes things as the work goes on.
