Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Park Wood

A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear, often at around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises. If you have hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and cold air coming in at window perimeters, we can help, on coping and flashing joints, stone and brick facade joints and window and door perimeters alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Park Wood tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

Conversions around smaller places like Park Wood often join new frames to old masonry or timber, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently.

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.

When it isn’t the sealant

We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
  • Replacing glass or failed glazing units
  • Movement beyond what any sealant can handle

If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Shopfront frames
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Window and door perimeters

Common questions from Park Wood clients

Is Park Wood off your patch?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Could you schedule work at a campus like University for the Creative Arts for the vacation?

Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.

Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?

Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.

What hours do you work?

The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.

Do you take on multi-site work?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.

How much does the work cost?

It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote.

Are you insured?

Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

Surface by surface

Perimeter joints at frames and structure

The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. We seal those perimeter joints rather than the system it surrounds.

Precast concrete panels

Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair before sealing.

What sets the cost

There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:

  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Any access equipment needed

Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.

What we need to price the job

However big the job, the same details help:

  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • Clear photos of the problem areas
  • Where the site is, with the postcode

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.

Leave it or put it right?

A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts, so the real damage is often some distance away. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.

Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

What you get with us

  • Colour agreed before work starts
  • One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
  • Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
  • Matching to RAL references, product permitting

New build and refits around Park Wood

Park Wood lies roughly 33 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Park Wood is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.

On a campus such as University for the Creative Arts, 3.2 miles to the north-west of Park Wood, new teaching buildings and residences are normally built and refurbished around the academic year. For a contractor working at a hospital such as KIMS hospital, 3.1 miles to the north of Park Wood, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. New units and refits on sites such as Orchard Industrial Estate (under half a mile south-east of Park Wood) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

Park Wood is about 2 miles south-east of Maidstone, in Kent. Looking for facade sealing in Park Wood? We can help, as we do across Kent. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, large and small. For work in that direction, see our London page (33 miles or so).

How a job runs

Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For a job in Park Wood, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. A fixed quote follows.

  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. Failed beads are removed 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. We go over the completed work with you before leaving.

Preparing the site

  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Ask for a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Advice

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

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.

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. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
