Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. Sharing the access keeps the cost down.
Facade sealing in Wickham Bishops
Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. What we seal are the joints around them: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters with products suited to facade or glazing perimeter joints. Most enquiries involve failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation, on shopfront frames, stone and brick facade joints and coping and flashing joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Wickham Bishops? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
For a site near Wickham Bishops, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Facade sealing around Wickham Bishops: what changes locally
Rainfall across the South East, Wickham Bishops 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 we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. The area within 2 miles of Wickham Bishops holds several hotels. Hotel extensions and refits usually have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
For contractors at a school such as Great Totham Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. For contractors refurbishing units at places like The Causeway Industrial Estate (2.8 miles south of Wickham Bishops), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

From enquiry to sign-off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself normally takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For work around Wickham Bishops, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Arrange parking or a loading space

Advice
FAQs: Wickham Bishops
Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Wickham Bishops?
Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Does your area include sites such as The Causeway Industrial Estate, near Wickham Bishops?
Yes. We cover Wickham Bishops and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as The Causeway Industrial Estate. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?
For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder. If asbestos is suspected, work stops until it is tested.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
