Facade sealing across Loxwood

Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

How we handle facade sealing in Loxwood

We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, though that isn’t the only cause. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. If you have sealant pulling away from frames or panels and leaks at window and door perimeters, we can help, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Loxwood tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

For a site near Loxwood, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

General trades versus a specialist

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

What affects the price in Loxwood

There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:

  • How much there is to seal
  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Access and working height
  • Distance, for remote addresses

Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Sending details for a quote

Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:

  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
  • The site address and postcode
  • The product your specification calls for

Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.

When it isn’t the sealant

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
  • Installing or repairing glazing systems
  • Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier

If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.

Where we work in Loxwood

  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure

Your questions answered

Is Loxwood off your patch?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Will you fit the mastic around our build programme in Loxwood?

Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.

What do you charge?

That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote.

Can you fit around our working hours?

Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.

Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?

For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register, so ask for it before we start. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.

Can you work while the building is occupied?

Yes, as long as we plan it. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Is the work guaranteed?

Yes. The 12-month guarantee covers our preparation and application, though not damage or work by other trades.

On site: what to expect

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. Smaller jobs around Loxwood can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. First we review photos, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
  2. Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
  3. Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
  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. We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.

What we need from you

  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Point out any areas we must not close

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us.

Mastic packages on Loxwood sites

Rainfall across the South East, Loxwood included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so the external programme keeps a little slack. At about 34 miles from central London, Loxwood is within reach of the capital. 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.

Projects at schools like Loxwood Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. Sites around Loxwood get mastic sealed to the drawings and the programme, nothing improvised.

Different surfaces, different methods

Perimeter joints at frames and structure

Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. We seal those perimeter joints rather than the system it surrounds.

Brick and stone facades

Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, and mask the edges carefully.
