After the work
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade instead of soaking the joints.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Older sealants can contain asbestos, and work stops until it’s tested if it’s suspected.
How we handle facade sealing in Walhampton
External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year, so they don’t last indefinitely. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. The enquiries we see most involve unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and sealant pulling away from frames or panels, across shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Walhampton first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Walhampton 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 normally what’s needed.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll come back to it.

Common problems we fix in Walhampton
Three-sided adhesion is a classic installation fault. Without rod or bond-breaker tape, the bead is held back and tears as the joint moves.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
When a school such as Lymington Church of England Infant School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.
Questions to ask before you book
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
Commercial clients in Walhampton
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Walhampton can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work typically takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. Smaller jobs around Walhampton can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Advice
Surface by surface
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. We confirm the product with you before starting.
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone, with primer where its maker specifies.
Facade sealing around Walhampton: how the place shapes the job
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Walhampton. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Walhampton. When hotels extend or refit, the work is normally squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
Hotels like Stanwell House Hotel, under half a mile to the south-west of Walhampton, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor. Hospital estates such as Lymington New Forest Hospital, 0.8 miles north-west of Walhampton, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
Walhampton is about 1 mile east of Lymington, in Hampshire. Anywhere in SO41, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Walhampton is one of 723 places in Hampshire on our list for facade joints. We also cover Southampton, some 12 miles away.

Walhampton: questions and answers
Can being near the sea in Walhampton affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Lymington New Forest Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
Do you seal facades in winter?
Year-round work is possible as long as joints are dry and temperatures suit the product. Frost and condensation on glass and steel are common on winter mornings, and we build that into the programme.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Usually, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
Do you provide access for facade work?
That comes down to the access arranged for the job. When you call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form, describe the access, and we will agree the approach together.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
