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.
Façade joints in Sant Pere de Ribes: where the water gets in
In 1960s to 80s blocks in areas such as Ribes, Sota-ribes and Les Parellades, expansion joints and precast panel joints usually still have their original sealant. When damp shows inside, we cut that seal out and redo it drop by drop.
On façades in areas such as Les Roquetes and Vilanoveta, we fit foam backer rod of the right diameter so the sealant has the correct depth and bonds only to the sides. Where the joint is shallow, we use a bond-breaker tape at the back instead.
We check the joints from outside and the damp from inside, and give you a detailed written quote, per vertical drop or for the whole façade. We also seal joints in nearby areas: Sitges, Vilanova i la Geltrú and Olivella.

Frequently asked questions
01Façade joint sealing at height in Sant Pere de Ribes: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Sant Pere de Ribes, in areas such as Ribes, Sota-ribes, Les Parellades, Les Roquetes, Vilanoveta, Puigmoltó, Can Macià and Les Torres, and also nearby: Sitges, Vilanova i la Geltrú and Olivella. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02Which 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.
03Can 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.
04Why 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.
