About our facade sealing in Wigmore

Most facade joint failures trace back to the joint, not just the sealant. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, and closed-cell rod sets the depth, keeping the bond to two faces with the ratio the sealant maker recommends, often around 2:1. The enquiries we see most involve draughts around frames and panels and patch repairs that keep failing, on cladding panel joints, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints. Whoever orders the work in Wigmore, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

On a small site around Wigmore, the mastic is best done in the fewest visits we can manage. Let us know the key stages and we will time the work so nothing waits on us.

We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wigmore

Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing now costs less than repairing interiors later. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.

The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.

New build and refits around Wigmore

The sea is no more than about 3 miles from Wigmore. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. Wigmore 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.

Extensions at sites like Medway Maritime Hospital (to the north-west of Wigmore) usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. On a campus such as University of Greenwich - Medway, 3.8 miles north-west of Wigmore, new teaching buildings and residences are usually built and refurbished around the academic year.

Wigmore is about 1 mile south-east of Gillingham, in Medway. Any commercial site in Wigmore is covered. Wigmore is one of 54 places we cover in Medway. For work in that direction, see our London page, about 31 miles away.

Maintenance after handover

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
  • Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
  • Never let anyone seal over old sealant
  • Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed

Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead, so brief your window cleaners.

Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. One set-up for several trades saves money.

When to call us in Wigmore

New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead, so the new bead peels away within a season or two.

These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:

  • Draughts around frames and panels
  • Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
  • Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure

Units on estates such as Parkwood Shopping Centre (0.5 miles south of Wigmore) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.

How to choose a sealant contractor

Common questions from Wigmore clients

Do you cover business parks and estates near Wigmore, such as Parkwood Shopping Centre?

Yes, sites like Parkwood Shopping Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Wigmore. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Can being near the sea in Wigmore affect the sealant we need?

It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. If you need card details for site access, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.

Can the building stay open while you work?

In most cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use.

Do you cover Wigmore?

Yes. We take on work across Wigmore, and the same phone number covers every area.

Do you seal facades in winter?

Rain and frost can pause external sealing. We plan for weather and keep you updated throughout the job.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

How the quote is worked out

These are the things that shape the price:

  • How accessible the joints are
  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Distance, for remote addresses

The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Sending details for a quote

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:

  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • Clear photos of the problem areas

Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.

Our process

In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Wigmore need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.

  1. We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
  2. We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
  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. Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Arrange parking or a loading space

Ask for a quote
