Facades, frames and programmes in Nutbourne
Nutbourne sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
For contractors at a school such as Chidham Parochial Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Building work at universities like University of Chichester, 4.8 miles to the east of Nutbourne, is often timed for the summer, mastic included. Hotels like Millstream Hotel (1.4 miles south-east of Nutbourne) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.

Facade sealing in Nutbourne, done properly
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. We work on shopfront frames, coping and flashing joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and what we are called in for most is weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters and gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Nutbourne? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
In the countryside around places like Nutbourne, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Nutbourne as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Advice
Should maintenance staff do it?
There’s also the paperwork. 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.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Questions we’re asked in Nutbourne
Can work at a site such as University of Chichester fit around teaching?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is Nutbourne off your patch?
Not at all. Nutbourne is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you quote from photographs?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
How much does the work cost?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Cost factors for facade joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Access and working height
- The product specified
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Before you send an enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Any specification or named product
- The site address and postcode
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.

What the job involves on each surface
Coping and flashing joints
Where the specification calls for sealant at copings or flashings, we can seal them. They sit in the most exposed positions on the building, so preparation and product choice matter.
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one, with masked edges for a clean line.
For managing agents and facilities managers
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Nutbourne can form part of a wider programme across West Sussex.
Looking after the joints
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Share access with other external trades
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and cuts time on site.
