Need facade sealing in Poynings?

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. For work around Poynings, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
  2. The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
  3. Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
  4. Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
  5. A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
  6. The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.

What we need from you

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

About our facade sealing in Poynings

Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. What we seal are the joints around them: the frame-to-structure perimeter, panel-to-panel joints and window and door surrounds. If you have sealant pulling away from frames or panels and failed sealant on precast panel joints, we can help. For commercial sealant work in Poynings, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

Around smaller places like Poynings, building work usually means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.

We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application.

Quoting for work in Poynings

What shapes the price:

  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Access and working height
  • Location, for remote and island sites

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Details that help us quote

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:

  • The site address and postcode
  • Specification clauses that apply
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Doing it in-house

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, 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.

Common questions from Poynings clients

Does your area include sites such as Aviation Trading Estate, near Poynings?

Yes, sites like Aviation Trading Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Poynings. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Southlands Hospital?

Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

Can the building stay open while you work?

Typically, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use.

Are you CHAS accredited?

Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Which sealant will you use?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

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 fixed quote.

Why it’s worth doing now in Poynings

Topping up a failed joint normally buys very little time. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Poynings, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.

Why appoint us

  • Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
  • CSCS-carded applicators
  • Constructionline member for supplier checks
  • Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available

Building owners, agents and FMs in Poynings

Mastic packages on Poynings sites

Poynings is about 42 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Poynings 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.

For contractors refurbishing units at places like Aviation Trading Estate, 1.7 miles north of Poynings, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Southlands Hospital (4.4 miles south-west of Poynings), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

Poynings is about 4 miles north of Brighton and Hove, in West Sussex. Any commercial site in Poynings is covered. Our West Sussex coverage takes in 373 places.

Do you need facade sealing in Poynings?

Sometimes the substrate is the problem: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.

Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:

  • Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
  • Water coming in around window frames
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels

Historic houses such as Portslade Manor, 3.7 miles south of Poynings, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.
