How we handle facade sealing in Tilford

We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on commercial buildings in Tilford. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. If you are dealing with weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters and patch repairs that keep failing, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Tilford it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

For a site near Tilford, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we will quote to suit.

Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll come back to it.

FAQs: Tilford

Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University for the Creative Arts?

Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.

Will you take on work at estates like The Sands Business Centre, close to Tilford?

Yes. Our area takes in Tilford and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as The Sands Business Centre included. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Can you work on upper floors?

That comes down to the access arranged for the job. When you call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form, describe the access.

Is colour matching possible?

Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.

Are your applicators CSCS-carded?

Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we will send them with the quote.

Should we check old sealant for asbestos?

It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder. If asbestos is suspected, work stops until it is tested.

Do you take on multi-site work?

Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.

When something else is needed

Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:

  • Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
  • Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
  • Installing or repairing glazing systems

If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think.

From enquiry to sign-off

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For work around Tilford, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
  2. Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
  3. Failed beads are removed in full.
  4. Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
  5. Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. We go over the completed work with you before leaving.

What we need from you

  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Looking after the joints

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:

  • Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
  • Clear debris that holds water against joints
  • Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
  • Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows

Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed instead of soaking the joints.

Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading behind the facade.

What happens if it’s left?

Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts, often turning up far from the joint. For buildings around smaller places like Tilford, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Why us?

  • Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
  • Public liability insurance in place
  • Over 20 years of commercial sealing
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job

What the job involves on each surface

Perimeter joints at frames and structure

Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. We seal those perimeter joints.

Brick and stone facades

Brick and stone facades have perimeter and movement joints that need a compatible sealant. Neutral-cure products are used because acetoxy types can mark some stone.

Contractors’ notes for Tilford

Rainfall across the South East, Tilford included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. 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 35 miles from Tilford. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand.

On a campus such as University for the Creative Arts (3.2 miles north-west of Tilford), new teaching buildings and residences are normally built and refurbished around the academic year. For contractors at a school such as Waverley Abbey CofE Junior School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like The Sands Business Centre, 1.8 miles north of Tilford, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.

  • How accessible the joints are

A quote for facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you’re working to. Call for a quote.
