Facade sealing in New Marston
Managing agents and owners in New Marston ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about cladding panel joints that have opened up and leaks at window and door perimeters, across shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and coping and flashing joints. Whoever orders the work in New Marston, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In a smaller place such as New Marston, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Small schemes still need window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant done to the specification.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Why it’s worth doing now in New Marston
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 now costs less than repairing interiors later. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

What we’re called out for in New Marston
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, and the patch soon lifts.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Water coming in around window frames
- Draughts around frames and panels
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Shotover Trading Estate (1.9 miles east of New Marston), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

When it isn’t the sealant
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Damaged frames that need replacing

Your questions answered
Is New Marston off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. 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 around term dates at a campus such as Oxford Brookes University Marston Road Site?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we’ll plan the work around them. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Do you provide access for facade work?
Access is planned with you before we quote. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you’re arranging and any site restrictions.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters across the facade.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. A bead run over old sealant soon lifts. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?
In older non-domestic buildings, old sealant can contain asbestos. The dutyholder’s asbestos register should be checked first; if it’s suspected, work stops until it has been tested. Removal of asbestos isn’t something we do.
After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed.
Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading.
Our process
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around New Marston need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Before we start on site
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, as the specification sets out.
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone.
