How we handle facade sealing in West Ashling
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. If you have facade joints cracked through the middle and patch repairs that keep failing, we can help, on coping and flashing joints, cladding panel joints and stone and brick facade joints alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in West Ashling 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.
For a site near West Ashling, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Why act early in West Ashling
Failed joints let in more than water: draughts around frames add to heating costs and complaints. Resealing deals with the draught as well as the leak. Converted and older buildings near places like West Ashling tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

West Ashling: questions and answers
Can you work on a hospital site such as Chichester Centre?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Does your area include sites such as Hambrook Business Park, near West Ashling?
Yes. Our area takes in West Ashling and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Hambrook Business Park included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
When can you be on site?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
Can you work in cold or wet weather?
Wet joints or temperatures outside the product’s range mean waiting. The programme allows for it and we tell you if the forecast changes things.
Do you cover West Ashling?
Yes. West Ashling is in our area and the rest of West Sussex. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. Glazing, windows and glass replacement aren’t part of our work. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
Common problems we fix in West Ashling
The wrong product causes its share of trouble: acetoxy-cure silicone may mark stone or corrode certain metals, and an interior product won’t last outdoors. Most external joints call for a neutral-cure, facade-grade sealant.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
Historic houses such as West Dean House (to the north-east of West Ashling) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.
Before you book anyone
- How they’ll work around occupants
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Providing access systems for the work
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Work on the window or framing system itself
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.
