Doing it in-house
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Old Alresford
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. If you have air leaks through failed facade joints and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters, we can help, whatever the surface. Most enquiries from Old Alresford start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Old Alresford is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Facade sealing around Old Alresford: points for this area
A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Old Alresford. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. Central London is about 54 miles from Old Alresford. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
Hotels like Bell Hotel, 0.9 miles to the south of Old Alresford, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor. Projects at schools like Perins School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

Looking after the joints
After handover, these steps help:
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed rather than sitting against the joints.
Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading inside the building.
Do you need facade sealing in Old Alresford?
When the sealant tears down its centre, it has usually been asked to move more than it can. Too thin a bead, too narrow a joint or a product with the wrong movement class are common reasons.
Look out for the following:
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
Historic houses such as Hinton Ampner House, 4.1 miles south of Old Alresford, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

Common questions from Old Alresford clients
What paperwork can you provide for a job in Old Alresford?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Is Old Alresford too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
It depends on the joint, the substrate and any specification. Specifications often refer to BS EN 15651-1 for facade sealants or BS EN 15651-2 for glazing, and we work to what is specified.
How much does the work cost?
That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Do you replace windows or glass?
No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, such as perimeter joints where frames meet the structure.
