About our facade sealing in Lyminster
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: cut out, clean, back, prime where needed and seal. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. If you’re dealing with sealant pulling away from frames or panels and leaks at window and door perimeters, we can help, on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Lyminster, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Lyminster bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is usually what’s needed.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Common questions from Lyminster clients
Is a smaller place like Lyminster outside your area?
No. Places such as Lyminster are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Arundel & District Community Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, depending on the substrate and the specification.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Signs you need facade sealing in Lyminster
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
School extensions, at buildings such as Lyminster Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
What to look for in a quote
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Their public liability cover
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Share access with other external trades
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
After heavy weather, check vulnerable elevations for signs of water inside. Catching a new leak early keeps the repair small.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it, and if it’s suspected, we stop until it has been tested.

Sites and facades in and around Lyminster
Lyminster is within about 2 miles of the coast. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. At about 50 miles from central London, Lyminster is within reach of the capital. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
With historic properties like Ecclesden Manor, 3.3 miles east of Lyminster, in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Lineside Road Industrial Estate, 1 mile to the south of Lyminster, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
