When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Coping and flashing joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding panel joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Standford
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits, so frosty or damp mornings can hold work back. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. If you’re dealing with gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels and weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Standford start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Around smaller places like Standford, building work typically 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.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

What else we do in Standford
Commercial clients in Standford
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Should maintenance staff do it?
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.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
On site: what to expect
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. If others near Standford need work, visits can be combined. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Before we start on site
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Questions we’re asked in Standford
Would you work within a site like Chase Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Does your area include sites such as Passfield Industrial Estate, near Standford?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Standford, Passfield Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. A bead run over old sealant soon lifts. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. Glazing, windows and glass replacement aren’t part of our work. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
Is colour matching possible?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Maintenance after handover
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Signs to look for are cracking, edges lifting, chalking and stiffness; note where they appear.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Older sealants can contain asbestos.
What sets the cost
What shapes the price:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- The site’s rules and procedures
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Any specification or named product
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so the external programme keeps a little slack. Central London is about 42 miles from Standford.

For contractors refurbishing units at places like Passfield Industrial Estate (under half a mile south-east of Standford), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.
