About our facade sealing in West Liss
We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters with products suited to facade or glazing perimeter joints. If you are dealing with facade joints cracked through the middle and discoloured or dirty facade joints, we can help. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in West Liss is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Construction in and around smaller places such as West Liss is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Your questions answered
Is a smaller place like West Liss outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Would you work within a site like Petersfield Community Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely and the faces are cleaned before resealing. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
Will you check whether the sealant is causing the leak?
Yes. Photos help, and you can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form to arrange a visit. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all, and we’ll tell you which.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
Low-modulus, neutral-cure silicone suits many facade and perimeter joints. Hybrid or MS polymer, polyurethane and polysulphide sealants suit others.

What else we do in West Liss
Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
After heavy weather, check vulnerable elevations for signs of water inside. An early report normally means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.
Get the joint design right when resealing: the right width, backing rod and a sealant with enough movement capability. A well-designed joint lasts longer than a like-for-like copy of a failed one.
Cost factors for facade joints
These are the things that shape the price:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The total length or number of joints
- The product specified
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- The site address and postcode
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Any specification or named product
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Work for main contractors and building owners
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites around West Liss. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Our process
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. Smaller jobs around West Liss can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use

- Let building users know which areas are affected
Getting a fixed quote

- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
School extensions, at buildings such as Liss Infant School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.

Facade sealing around West Liss: what changes locally
Rainfall across the South East, West Liss included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack. Central London is about 47 miles from West Liss. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Upper Adhurst Industrial Park (1.3 miles south of West Liss), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Petersfield Community Hospital, 3.2 miles south-west of West Liss, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

How the job changes by surface
Window and door perimeters
Frame-to-wall joints at windows and doors are the facade joints we reseal most. A low-modulus, neutral-cure product suits most frame-to-wall joints, tooled to shed water.
Brick and stone facades
Joints in natural stone need care to avoid staining. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one, and mask the edges carefully.
