Facade sealing across Ringwood

Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.

Doing it in-house

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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.

Facade sealing in Ringwood

We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, though that isn’t the only cause. We’ll tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. If you have cold air coming in at window perimeters and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, we can help. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Ringwood, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

Conversions around smaller places like Ringwood often join new frames to old masonry or timber, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

FAQs: Ringwood

Do you cover business parks and estates near Ringwood, such as Carvers Industrial Estate?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Ringwood, Carvers Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Is a smaller place like Ringwood outside your area?

Not at all. Ringwood is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Should we check old sealant for asbestos?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. The dutyholder’s asbestos register should be checked first, and if anything is suspected, we stop until it’s tested. Removal of asbestos isn’t something we do.

Can you quote from photos?

Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.

Will you quote for a small job?

Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?

Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.

What site paperwork can you supply?

Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.

Do you need facade sealing in Ringwood?

Sun, rain and temperature swings wear facade sealant down over the years. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint, then it splits or peels.

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

  • Discoloured or dirty facade joints
  • Cold air coming in at window perimeters
  • Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
  • Leaks at window and door perimeters

Extensions at sites like St Leonard's Hospital (to the south-west of Ringwood) usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.

  • Their public liability cover
  • Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

How the job changes by surface

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.

Coping and flashing joints

Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. We tell you if the fix is a roofing or metalwork job rather than a reseal.

What happens if it’s left?

Open facade joints also let air and dirt through: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. Resealing deals with the draught as well as the leak. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.

The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Why clients in Ringwood choose us

  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product
  • Fully insured
  • Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
  • Commercial sealant work since 2005

Facades, frames and programmes in Ringwood

A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Ringwood. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. Rainfall across the South East, Ringwood included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. 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 at a college like Sheiling College, 1.5 miles to the west of Ringwood, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Carvers Industrial Estate, less than half a mile to the west of Ringwood, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

Our process

We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we’re cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. What matters most for a job in Ringwood is a clear list of what needs doing. A fixed quote follows.

  1. Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the 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. Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
  6. The finished joints are checked with you.

Before we start on site

  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Get a fixed quote

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

When it isn’t the sealant

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
  • Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
  • Work on the window or framing system itself

If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
