Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Westcroft

Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Failed perimeter sealant is a frequent cause. We’ll tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. We work on window and door perimeters, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and shopfront frames, and what we are called in for most is facade joints cracked through the middle and water coming in around window frames. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Westcroft tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Conversions around smaller places like Westcroft often join new frames to old masonry or timber, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Honest limits

Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:

  • Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
  • Render or concrete edges that have broken away
  • Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Questions we are asked in Westcroft

Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Bletchley Community 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.

Do you cover business parks and estates near Westcroft, such as North Furzton Shopping Centre?

Yes, sites like North Furzton Shopping Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Westcroft. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Do you provide access for facade work?

We agree access with the client at the start. Let us know what access is in place or planned.

What will the job cost?

We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.

Will you come and look before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.

Can you find out why a window is leaking?

Yes. We check the sealant joints and report what we find before quoting. Where the cause seems to be elsewhere, we’d rather tell you than reseal pointlessly.

Do you hold CHAS accreditation?

Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.

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 any cutting starts, with the work itself normally taking anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. What matters most for a job in Westcroft is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photos of each area. You will then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
  2. Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
  3. We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
  4. Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
  5. Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
  6. We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Getting the site ready

  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Advice

Different surfaces, different methods

Coping and flashing joints

Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. These joints take full exposure to weather and need a durable external sealant.

Render and coated surfaces

Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. The choice depends on the specification and finish.

Why deal with it now?

The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Early action keeps it simple. In a smaller place such as Westcroft, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.

Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

  • Colour agreed before work starts
  • One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland

New build and refits around Westcroft

At about 46 miles from central London, Westcroft is within reach of the capital. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Westcroft has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.

For contractors on a campus like University of Bedfordshire Milton Keynes Campus, which lies north-east of Westcroft, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates. Extensions at sites like Bletchley Community Hospital (2.2 miles east of Westcroft) typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.

Westcroft is about 2 miles west of Bletchley, in Milton Keynes. We send applicators to Westcroft for facade joints. 62 places across Milton Keynes fall within our area, Westcroft among them. Oxford is covered too, some 25 miles away.

Common problems we fix in Westcroft

New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone.

What tends to prompt an enquiry:

  • Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
  • Leaks at window and door perimeters
  • Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
  • Patch repairs that keep failing

When a school such as Oxley Park Academy is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.
