Facade sealing in Lyde Green
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. If you have staining on stone next to old sealant and new sealant peeling off old mastic, we can help. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Lyde Green, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Lyde Green 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.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Honest limits
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on

Building and refurbishing in Lyde Green
Lyde Green sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. Lyde Green lies roughly 41 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
For a contractor at a hotel such as Tylney Hall Hotel, which lies south of Lyde Green, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date. When a school such as Whitewater Church of England Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. Units on estates such as Optrex Business Centre (0.9 miles south of Lyde Green) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.

Questions we are asked in Lyde Green
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Does your area include sites such as Optrex Business Centre, near Lyde Green?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Lyde Green, Optrex Business Centre among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
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.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
How do you choose the sealant?
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.
Can you work on upper floors?
We agree access with the client at the start. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you’re arranging and any site restrictions.
How the quote is worked out
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The size and state of each joint
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
Why it’s worth doing now in Lyde Green
A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Leaks travel along the structure, so the real damage is often some distance away. Around Lyde Green, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
What you get with us
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- CHAS accredited contractor
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months

Doing it in-house
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Maintenance after handover
After handover, these steps help:
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Regular checks let you renew joints before water gets in.
