About our facade sealing in Thruxton
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, and closed-cell rod sets the depth, keeping the bond to two faces, often at around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises. The enquiries we see most involve cladding panel joints that have opened up and weathered facade joints that have lost their grip, across window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and shopfront frames. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Thruxton tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In the countryside around places like Thruxton, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is typically what’s needed.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
How the quote is worked out
To price the job, we consider:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- The product specified
- Location, for remote and island sites
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Access details, including height
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The product your specification calls for
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
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.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Smaller jobs around Thruxton can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We start with photos, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- Failed beads are removed in full and both faces cleaned back.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
What we need from you
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

How the job changes by surface
Coping and flashing joints
Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.
Window and door perimeters
Frame materials vary, and so does the preparation. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.
Your questions answered
Is a smaller place like Thruxton outside your area?
Not at all. Thruxton is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Will you take on work at estates like Weyhill Business Park, close to Thruxton?
Yes. We cover Thruxton and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Weyhill Business Park. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
Yes, as long as we plan it. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Can you work in cold or wet weather?
Year-round work is possible as long as joints are dry and temperatures suit the product. Cold, damp mornings can delay a start, and we build that into the programme.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Facades, frames and programmes in Thruxton
Thruxton is about 67 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. Rainfall across the South East, Thruxton included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
Units on estates such as Weyhill Business Park, 1 mile north-east of Thruxton, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal. For contractors at a school such as Amport Church of England Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Andover War Memorial Hospital (3.9 miles east of Thruxton), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

What else we do in Thruxton
When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:

- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
