Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Shripney

Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. What we seal are the joints around them: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters. If you’re dealing with leaks at window and door perimeters and new sealant peeling off old mastic, we can help, whatever the surface. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Shripney from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

Around smaller places like Shripney, building work usually means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.

We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

When something else is needed

A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:

  • Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
  • Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
  • Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing

If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we seal

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

General trades versus a specialist

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.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

What sets the cost

Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we look at:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Working within restricted access windows
  • Removal of failed or old sealant

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

What we need to price the job

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • Any specification or named product
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Where the site is, with the postcode

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. If others near Shripney need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
  2. Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
  3. We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
  4. Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
  5. Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
  6. We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice

Building and refurbishing in Shripney

Shripney sits close to the coast, within about 3 miles. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Shripney. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.

On a healthcare site such as Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital (1.3 miles south of Shripney), new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. Units on estates such as Saltbox Business Park., less than half a mile south of Shripney, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal. When a school such as Bersted Green Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

Shripney is about 2 miles north-east of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. Shripney sits inside our coverage and the rest of West Sussex, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else.

Keeping the joints sound

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:

  • Never let anyone seal over old sealant
  • Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
  • Clear debris that holds water against joints
  • Don’t wait for a second leak before calling

Anything drilled through a facade joint breaks the seal. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards with a compatible product.

Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail.

Different surfaces, different methods

Cladding panel joints

Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, often a low-modulus silicone or hybrid.

Render and coated surfaces

Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. The choice depends on the specification and finish.

Questions we are asked in Shripney

Would you work within a site like Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital?

Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

Is a smaller place like Shripney outside your area?

No. Places such as Shripney are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Should we check old sealant for asbestos?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Check the asbestos register or survey before it is disturbed; if it’s suspected, work stops until it has been tested. Removal of asbestos isn’t something we do.

How do we ask for a quote?

You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

Can one quote cover more than one building?

Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.

How do you choose the sealant?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

Do you need to see the site first?

Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.
