Sealing facade joints with a sealant gun

Façade joint sealing at height in Alella.

We remake the joints that let water into façades of buildings and houses in Alella, working suspended from the roof with no scaffolding on the pavement.

When do the joints need sealing?

  • Damp inside next to the façade
  • Cracked or detached sealant
  • Open joints between panels
  • Water getting in around windows

What joint sealing includes

  • Joint-by-joint inspection

    Working from the ropes, we find cracks, debonding and empty joints.

  • Removing old sealant

    We cut out and clean the old sealant until the edges are sound.

  • Backer rod

    A foam rod gives the sealant the right depth.

  • Primer

    Primer on the edges so the sealant bonds properly to the substrate.

  • Elastic sealant

    Polyurethane or MS polymer that moves with the façade.

  • Window and panel joints

    Window perimeters, expansion joints and junctions between panels.

Old sealant, new joint: what we check at height

In areas such as Centre and Can Magarola, besides residential buildings there are warehouses and offices with panel façades. We seal panel joints, roof flashings and door and window perimeters, working on ropes.

Before sealing on buildings in areas such as Alella Parc, Can Sorts and Nova Alella, we prime the edges to suit the substrate: concrete, stone, aluminium or PVC. Then we gun in the sealant, tool it smooth and peel off the masking tape.

A site manager coordinates the rope access team with the residents and, when we finish, we remove sealant offcuts and tape from the façade and pavement. We also travel to the surrounding areas: El Masnou, Teià and Tiana.

Frequently asked questions

01

Façade joint sealing at height in Alella: which areas do you cover?

We work in Alella in areas such as Centre, Can Magarola, Alella Parc, Can Sorts, Nova Alella and El Solell, and also nearby: El Masnou, Teià and Tiana.

02

Which sealant do you use for façade joints?

Elastic polyurethane or MS polymer sealants, suitable for exterior use and paintable. We choose according to the façade material and the movement the joint has to absorb.

03

Can you seal just the area where water gets in?

Yes. If the problem is localised, we seal the affected vertical drop. During the visit we also check nearby joints, as they are usually the same age and equally worn.

04

Why not just apply new sealant over the old?

Because new sealant does not bond well to old sealant or dust. The old one has to be removed, the edges cleaned, a backer rod fitted and primer applied; that way the joint can move without opening again.
