Maintenance after handover
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
Include facade joints in your planned maintenance inspections. Signs to look for are cracking, edges lifting, chalking and stiffness.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down.
Signs you need facade sealing in Plummers Plain
The wrong product causes its share of trouble: an acetoxy cure can mark stone or corrode some metals, and interior products break down outdoors. Neutral-cure, facade-grade products are what most external joints need.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Patch repairs that keep failing
Older buildings in the area around Plummers Plain, such as Tyes Place, 2.9 miles to the east of Plummers Plain, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.

What affects the price in Plummers Plain
To price the job, we consider:
- The total length or number of joints
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Location, for remote and island sites
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- When you need the work done
- The site address and postcode
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
For managing agents and facilities managers
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Your questions answered
Can you keep pace with our programme in Plummers Plain?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we will plan the mastic to suit the stages. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Horsham 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 your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, as many construction sites ask for.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
The product follows the joint’s movement, the surfaces and the specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
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.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
How a job runs
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. For work around Plummers Plain, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.

- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- Failed beads are removed in full and the joint faces cleaned.

Contractors’ notes for Plummers Plain
Plummers Plain lies roughly 32 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Plummers Plain 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 external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
On a healthcare site such as Horsham Hospital, 4.4 miles north-west of Plummers Plain, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. When a school such as Newells Preparatory School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.
