Facade sealing for businesses in Navestock Side

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Our process

Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For a building around Navestock Side, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.

  1. We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
  2. We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
  3. The existing bead comes out in full and both faces cleaned back.
  4. Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
  5. Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. The finished joints are checked with you.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work

Facade sealing in Navestock Side, done properly

Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. If you are dealing with staining on stone next to old sealant and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, we can put it right, whatever the surface. For commercial sealant work in Navestock Side, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.

Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Navestock Side 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 typically what’s needed.

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.

Cost factors for facade joints

These are the things that shape the price:

  • How much there is to seal
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • Working within restricted access windows
  • The product specified

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Before you send an enquiry

There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:

  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • The site address and postcode
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

When to bring in a specialist

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Aftercare for building managers

To get the most from the new sealant:

  • Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
  • Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
  • Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
  • Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear

Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead, so brief your window cleaners.

Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and cuts time on site.

Do you need facade sealing in Navestock Side?

The wrong product causes its share of trouble: acetoxy-cure silicone may mark stone or corrode certain metals, and an interior product won’t last outdoors. Neutral-cure, facade-grade products are what most external joints need.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Water coming in around window frames
  • Cold air coming in at window perimeters
  • Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
  • New sealant peeling off old mastic

For contractors refurbishing units at places like Hallsford Bridge Industrial Estate, which lies north of Navestock Side, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Common questions from Navestock Side clients

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Brentwood Community Hospital?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.

Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Havering Technical College?

Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.

Is old mastic on our building likely to contain asbestos?

It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder, so ask for it before we start. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.

When can you be on site?

Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.

Do you work in Navestock Side?

Yes. We cover Navestock Side, and the simplest way to start is to call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes. The 12-month guarantee covers our preparation and application, but not damage, misuse or other trades’ work.

Can you find out why a window is leaking?

Yes. We look at the perimeter sealant and tell you whether it has failed before quoting. If the water seems to come from a roof, sill or the glazing unit instead, we say so.

What happens if it’s left?

Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. Behind the frame, that can mean damp plaster, stained ceilings, corroded fixings and damaged insulation. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. Converted and older buildings near places like Navestock Side tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.

Sites and facades in and around Navestock Side

Rainfall across the South East, Navestock Side included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. At about 18 miles from central London, Navestock Side is within reach of the capital. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.
