What sealant work can’t fix

- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Work on the window or framing system itself
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly.

Facade sealing in Milcombe, done properly
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range, and cold, damp starts can delay work. We plan for that and keep you updated. Site teams most often ask us about weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away, across shopfront frames, stone and brick facade joints and coping and flashing joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Milcombe from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Sites around smaller places like Milcombe can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.
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.

Should maintenance staff do it?
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 usually 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 brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Quoting for work in Milcombe
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Any access equipment needed
- The product specified
- Phasing around occupants
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Access details, including height
- Any specification or named product
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- When you need the work done
Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we will return a fixed quote you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
What happens if it’s left?
Failed joints let in more than water: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. A new seal closes the gap for both. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Milcombe, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Jobs in and around smaller places like Milcombe are normally planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- 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
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
Quotes
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Building and refurbishing in Milcombe
Rainfall across the South East, Milcombe included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. 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. At about 66 miles from central London, Milcombe is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
Extensions at sites like Horton General Hospital (4.2 miles north-east of Milcombe) normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. Older buildings in the area around Milcombe, such as Broughton Castle (2.2 miles north of Milcombe), need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials. When units on a site such as Vantage Business Park (2.4 miles north-east of Milcombe) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
Milcombe is about 4 miles south-west of Banbury, in Oxfordshire. Any commercial site in Milcombe is covered, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme.

How the job changes by surface
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. Neutral-cure products are used because acetoxy types can mark some stone.
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. Faces are cleaned to sound concrete, and damaged edges are reported first.
Your questions answered
Is Milcombe too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Milcombe is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Is a hospital such as Horton General Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
How long before the joints can be used?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
Is any job too small?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
The product follows the joint’s movement, the surfaces and the specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them.
