What affects the price in Wymering
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- How accessible the joints are
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Whether the work must be split into stages
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
We can often quote from photos and a few details. It helps to include:
- Your programme or deadline
- The product your specification calls for
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Where the site is, with the postcode

Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Wymering
We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: the frame-to-structure perimeter, panel-to-panel joints and window and door surrounds, using sealants classified for facade or glazing use. If you have perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation, we can put it right. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Wymering from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
For a contractor on a smaller site near Wymering, one mastic visit at the right stage saves return trips. Tell us when scaffold comes down and when decoration finishes, and we will plan around those stages.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Owners, agents and contractors
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Wymering can form part of a wider programme across Portsmouth.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. It helps when matching repairs or planning the next reseal.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Some older mastics contain it, and if it’s suspected, we stop until it has been tested.
New build and refits around Wymering
Wymering sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Wymering. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
New wings at hospitals like Queen Alexandra Hospital (to the north-east of Wymering) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. University estates such as University of Portsmouth - North Zone, 3.4 miles south of Wymering, tend to have a rolling programme of new buildings and refurbishments, each with window perimeters and facade joints to seal. Projects at colleges like Portsmouth College, 2.9 miles south-east of Wymering, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
Wymering is about 3 miles north of Portsmouth, in Portsmouth. We send applicators to Wymering for facade joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area. We work across 19 places in Portsmouth.

Common questions from Wymering clients
Would you work within a site like Queen Alexandra Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can work at a site such as University of Portsmouth - North Zone fit around teaching?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Is old mastic on our building likely to contain asbestos?
In older non-domestic buildings, old sealant can contain asbestos. Check the asbestos register or survey before it is disturbed; if it’s suspected, work stops until it has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
How is access to upper-level joints handled?
That comes down to the access arranged for the job. When you call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form, describe the access, and we will plan the work with you.
How do we ask for a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Do you seal facades in winter?
Wet joints or temperatures outside the product’s range mean waiting. We plan for weather and keep you updated.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes, for 12 months. If a joint fails because of how we installed it, we come back and put it right.

Our process
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. What matters most for a job in Wymering is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photographs of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
Getting a fixed quote
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

When it isn’t the sealant
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.
