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.
How we reseal façade joints in Vic
In 1960s to 80s blocks in areas such as Centre Històric and Les Adoberies, 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 each joint in buildings in areas such as El Remei, Montseny and La Guixa, we cut out the old sealant with a blade, clean the edges back to a sound surface and check the joint is dry. New sealant will not bond to dust or old residue.
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: Gurb, Calldetenes and Santa Eugènia de Berga.

Frequently asked questions
01Façade joint sealing at height in Vic: which areas do you cover?
We work in Vic in areas such as Centre Històric, Les Adoberies, El Remei, Montseny, La Guixa, Caputxins, Santa Clara and Horta Vermella, and also nearby: Gurb, Calldetenes and Santa Eugènia de Berga.
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.
