Facade sealing in Salters Heath, done properly

Access is part of every facade job, and we plan it with you before quoting. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site, and we will fit the work around it. If you have new sealant peeling off old mastic and cold air coming in at window perimeters, we can help, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Salters Heath it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Construction in and around smaller places such as Salters Heath 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.

Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Salters Heath: questions and answers

Would you work within a site like Parklands Hospital?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.

Is a smaller place like Salters Heath outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can weather delay the job?

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. Internal work is far less affected.

Which sealant will you use?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. 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?

It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote.

What site paperwork can you supply?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

How is access to upper-level joints handled?

Access is planned with you before we quote. Let us know what access is in place or planned.

Common problems we fix in Salters Heath

Three-sided adhesion is a classic installation fault. Without rod or bond-breaker tape, the bead is held back and rips when the facade moves.

These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:

  • Failed sealant on precast panel joints
  • Previous reseals run over old sealant
  • Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
  • Draughts around frames and panels

Historic houses such as The Vyne (to the south-east of Salters Heath) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
  • Their public liability cover

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

For managing agents and facilities managers

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.

What sets the cost

The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:

  • Any access equipment needed
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Removal of failed or old sealant

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.

What we need to price the job

However big the job, the same details help:

  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • When you need the work done

Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote that you can work with. If you have questions first, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Our process

Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Jobs in and around smaller places like Salters Heath are usually planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
  2. We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
  3. Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
  4. Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
  5. Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
  6. Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

Get a fixed quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

What we can’t put right

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:

  • Work on the window or framing system itself
  • Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
  • Movement beyond what any sealant can handle

If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Mastic packages on Salters Heath sites

Salters Heath is about 46 miles 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. Rainfall across the South East, Salters Heath included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack.

Units on estates such as Berry Court Business Park (to the north of Salters Heath) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Parklands Hospital, 2.3 miles to the south of Salters Heath, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

Salters Heath is about 3 miles south of Tadley, in Hampshire. Anywhere in RG26, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Salters Heath is one of 723 places we cover in Hampshire. There’s a separate page for Reading, about 11 miles away.

Business premises anywhere in RG26 are within our area. For a building on Aldermaston Road and Salters Heath Road or nearby, send details and we’ll quote for facade joints. Sites close to Salters Heath are covered too, including Pamber End (1 mile north-west), Monk Sherborne (1 mile south-west), Pamber Green (1 mile north), Little London (1 mile north-east) and Charter Alley (1 mile west). Nearby towns on our patch include Basingstoke (4 miles south), Farnborough (15 miles east), Fleet (12 miles east), Alton (13 miles south-east), Yateley (12 miles east) and Tadley (3 miles north).

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
