Sun Rising: questions and answers
Is Sun Rising too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Sun Rising?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we will plan the mastic to suit the stages. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register, and we’ll ask to see it. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
Can you quote from photographs?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Sun Rising
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. Either way, the method is the same: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. If you are dealing with discoloured or dirty facade joints and sealant pulling away from frames or panels, we can put it right, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Sun Rising tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In the countryside around places like Sun Rising, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

How the quote is worked out
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Any access equipment needed
- The product specified
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Distance, for remote addresses
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Any specification or named product
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Ask the installer to reseal it properly using a matching sealant.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail instead of after the damage.
What the job involves on each surface
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one.
Window and door perimeters
Window and door perimeters make up most facade sealing work. A low-modulus, neutral-cure product suits most frame-to-wall joints finished to throw water off the joint.
Why act early in Sun Rising
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once, which is often the biggest saving. For buildings around smaller places like Sun Rising, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

How a job runs
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. If others near Sun Rising need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Preparing the site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Send your site hours and access windows

Advice
Do you need facade sealing in Sun Rising?
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. UV and weather harden the sealant until it can’t stretch with the building, then it splits or peels.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
New units and refits on sites such as Alkerton Oaks Business Park (to the south-east of Sun Rising) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
