Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Upper Burgate

Our facade sealing work covers external facade joints, window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and the perimeter joints where frames meet the structure for clients around Upper Burgate. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. We work on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and cladding panel joints, and what we’re called in for most is previous reseals run over old sealant and draughts around frames and panels. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Upper Burgate from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Upper Burgate bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is usually what’s needed.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Contractors’ notes for Upper Burgate

Rainfall across the South East, Upper Burgate 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.

On a healthcare site such as Fordingbridge Hospital, 1.4 miles south of Upper Burgate, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. For a contractor at a hotel such as Greyhound Hotel, 1.3 miles to the south of Upper Burgate, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

Looking after the joints

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:

  • Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
  • Share access with other external trades
  • Investigate damp beside windows promptly
  • Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to

Anything drilled through a facade joint breaks the seal. Ask the installer to reseal it properly using a matching sealant.

Building facade joints into a maintenance cycle avoids emergency repairs. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail instead of after the damage.

From enquiry to sign-off

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. For work around Upper Burgate, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
  2. We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
  3. The existing bead comes out 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. The finished joints are checked with you.

What we need from you

  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

FAQs: Upper Burgate

Does your area include sites such as Arch Farm Industrial Estate, near Upper Burgate?

Yes. We cover Upper Burgate and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Arch Farm Industrial Estate. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Fordingbridge Hospital?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.

Can you handle several sites?

Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, and you deal with one contact throughout.

Is Upper Burgate in your area?

Yes. We cover Upper Burgate and the rest of Hampshire, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Should we check old sealant for asbestos?

It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register, and we’ll ask to see it. If asbestos is suspected, work stops until it is tested.

What about RAMS and site documents?

Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.

Cost factors for facade joints

These are the things that shape the price:

  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • How accessible the joints are
  • Which sealant the job calls for

The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Details that help us quote

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • The site address and postcode

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

Do you need facade sealing in Upper Burgate?

Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, and the patch soon lifts.

Things that typically lead to an enquiry:

  • Previous reseals run over old sealant
  • Leaks at window and door perimeters
  • Draughts around frames and panels
  • Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away

With historic properties like Breamore House (to the north of Upper Burgate) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.

  • How they’ll work around occupants
  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • How joint depth will be controlled

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

For managing agents and facilities managers

When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.

We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around Upper Burgate. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

Why it’s worth doing now in Upper Burgate

If access is already up for other work, resealing at the same time makes sense. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once, saving a second set-up. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Upper Burgate. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Why us?

  • Fixed quotes based on photos, drawings or a visit
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job
