Aftercare for building managers
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. An early report normally means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.
Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones behind the facade.
Facade sealing in Witley
Sealant around windows, doors and cladding panels stops rain reaching the wall behind. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We remove failed sealant and install a new bead chosen for the joint and how far it moves. If you’re dealing with facade joints cracked through the middle and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Most enquiries from Witley start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Witley 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.
Work we carry out in Surrey comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

What sets the cost
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Any access equipment needed
- The size and state of each joint
- Which sealant the job calls for
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Details that help us quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Specification clauses that apply
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- When you need the work done
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Facade sealing in Witley: the local picture
At about 34 miles from central London, Witley is within reach of the capital. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Witley is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. 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.
New units and refits on sites such as Godalming Business Centre (3 miles north-east of Witley) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Extensions at sites like Milford Hospital, 1.5 miles north-east of Witley, typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. For contractors at a college like Godalming College, which lies north-east of Witley, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.
Witley is about 7 miles south-west of Guildford, in Surrey. We cover commercial sites throughout Witley. Witley is one of 379 places in Surrey on our list for facade joints. Sites around Reading have their own page, about 25 miles away.

What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Work on the window or framing system itself

Doing it in-house
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Advice
Common questions from Witley clients
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as Godalming College?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Is Witley off your patch?
Not at all. Witley is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Will rain stop the work?
Wet joints or temperatures outside the product’s range mean waiting. We plan for weather and keep you updated throughout the job.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. We look at the perimeter sealant and tell you whether it has failed before quoting. Where the cause seems to be elsewhere, we’d rather tell you than reseal pointlessly.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How the job changes by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. We seal those perimeter joints.
Cladding panel joints
On sealed panel systems, every joint keeps water out. Failed runs are cut out and rebuilt end to end to the correct depth.
