Your questions answered

Will you take on work at estates like Bracknell Enterprise Centre, close to Martins Heron?

Yes, sites like Bracknell Enterprise Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Martins Heron. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Is Martins Heron too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Can you work in cold or wet weather?

Rain and frost can pause external sealing. The programme allows for it and we tell you if the forecast changes things as the work goes on.

Can you fit around our working hours?

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.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

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

Can the building stay open while you work?

Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Do you take on multi-site work?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.

Facade sealing in Martins Heron, done properly

Most facade joint failures trace back to the joint, not just the sealant. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, and closed-cell rod sets the depth, keeping the bond to two faces. Site teams most often ask us about leaks at window and door perimeters and gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels, across shopfront frames, stone and brick facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Martins Heron is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Around places like Martins Heron, a lot of construction is the conversion of older buildings, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.

We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Leave it or put it right?

Topping up a failed joint typically buys very little time. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.

A quote for facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Martins Heron

If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Martins Heron can form part of a wider programme.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

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. Work in places the size of Martins Heron is planned as a single visit where we can. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.

  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. We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice

Do you need facade sealing in Martins Heron?

The wrong product causes its share of trouble: an acetoxy cure can mark stone or corrode some metals, and interior products break down outdoors. Neutral-cure, facade-grade products are what most external joints need.

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Discoloured or dirty facade joints
  • Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
  • Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
  • Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames

New wings at hospitals like Heatherwood Hospital, 1.6 miles to the east of Martins Heron, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Their plan for phasing and protecting the area

How to choose a sealant contractor

Should maintenance staff do it?

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.

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

What we can’t put right

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:

  • Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
  • Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
  • Work on the window or framing system itself

If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Facades, frames and programmes in Martins Heron

A 2-mile radius around Martins Heron takes in several hotels. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight. Martins Heron sits in or beside Bracknell, a twentieth-century planned town. Many of its original buildings are reaching the age for recladding and new windows, with mastic packages to match.

Work at a hotel such as The Royal Foresters Hotel, 0.7 miles to the east of Martins Heron, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included. Units on estates such as Bracknell Enterprise Centre (1.7 miles west of Martins Heron) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
