About our facade sealing in South Weirs
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. If you have cold air coming in at window perimeters and perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away, we can help, on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints alike. For commercial sealant work in South Weirs, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around smaller places like South Weirs, building work normally 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.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Facades, frames and programmes in South Weirs
A good number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from South Weirs. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
When a school such as Brockenhurst Church of England Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. Further education sites such as Brockenhurst College, 1.3 miles north-east of South Weirs, are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break.

Advice
Why act early in South Weirs
Open facade joints also let air and dirt through: draughts around frames add to heating costs and complaints. Resealing deals with the draught as well as the leak. Older rural buildings around South Weirs move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
Why us?
- Colours confirmed for the specified product
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- Public liability insurance in place
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship

South Weirs: questions and answers
Can work at a site such as Brockenhurst College fit around teaching?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Lymington New Forest Hospital, something you do?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Do you provide access for facade work?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. When you speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos, describe the access.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, including public liability cover.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, depending on the substrate and the specification.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. A bead run over old sealant soon lifts. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
Common problems we fix in South Weirs
Not every failure is in the sealant: if the edge of the render, concrete or coating breaks away, the bead goes with it. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
Hospital estates such as Lymington New Forest Hospital, 3.7 miles south-east of South Weirs, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.

What affects the price in South Weirs
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How much there is to seal
- Access and working height
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The product your specification calls for
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Surface by surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. A sealant of the right movement class goes in over backing rod with primer where the product requires it.
Render and coated surfaces
Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. We confirm the product with you before starting.
Maintenance after handover
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it, and if it’s suspected, we stop until it has been tested.
