About our facade sealing in West Barnham
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. If you’re dealing with draughts around frames and panels and staining on stone next to old sealant, we can put it right, on coping and flashing joints, shopfront frames and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in West Barnham 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.
Around smaller places like West Barnham, building work usually means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Quoting for work in West Barnham
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Before you send an enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The product your specification calls for
- Any dates the work must fit around
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
FAQs: West Barnham
Can work at a site such as University of Chichester (Bognor Campus) fit around teaching?
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.
Can you work at a site such as Sussex Business Village, by West Barnham?
Yes, sites like Sussex Business Village are within our area, along with the rest of West Barnham. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
What will the job cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
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 confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
When to call us in West Barnham
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. UV and weather harden the sealant until it can’t stretch with the building, and cracks or adhesion loss follow.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
Building work at universities like University of Chichester (Bognor Campus) (to the south of West Barnham) is often timed for the summer, mastic included.
Questions to ask before you book
- Proof of insurance
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building, and we clear our waste as we work. For work around West Barnham, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Before we start on site
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Arrange parking or a loading space

Advice
General trades versus a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
