Winchester Cut Edge Corrosion Treatment

WHAT IS CUT EDGE CORROSION TREATMENT?

Cut edge corrosion is the creeping rust that attacks the cut edges and end laps of plastisol-coated steel cladding and roof sheets. On Winchester buildings it typically appears as brown streaks along the bottom of vertical sheets or the laps of a roof, where the original coating has broken down and the bare metal beneath has begun to corrode. Ignored, it spreads relentlessly and leads to full sheet failure.

Our Winchester cut edge corrosion treatment stops the rust in its tracks. We feather back the failing plastisol to a sound edge, treat and prime the exposed steel, then build up and seal the edge with Tor Elastaseal Fibretex or Delcote Seamsil and colour-matched topcoats. The result is up to 15 more years of cladding life, backed by an Insurance Backed Guarantee.

WHY CUT EDGE CORROSION TREATMENT IS ESSENTIAL

Protects Surfaces from Corrosion & Wear

The danger with cut edge corrosion in Winchester is how fast it spreads. Our treatment halts the chemical process at source, treats the exposed metal and seals the edge so the damage stops where it is.

Improves Safety & Compliance

Corroded, lifting sheets on a Winchester building are a hazard waiting to happen. Early cut edge corrosion treatment restores a sound, secure envelope and keeps you on the right side of safety and compliance.

Extends Asset Lifespan

Replacement is rarely necessary if corrosion is caught early. Our Winchester cut edge corrosion treatment adds up to 15 years of guaranteed life to the existing sheets, dramatically improving their lifecycle value.

Enhances Professional Appearance

Rust streaks running down profiled cladding instantly age a Winchester building and damage tenant and client perceptions. A professional cut edge corrosion treatment removes those streaks, re-establishes a crisp colour line and restores kerb appeal.

Cost-Effective Refurbishment

Why replace when you can treat? Cut edge corrosion treatment in Winchester delivers another 15 years of cladding life for a small fraction of the cost and disruption of replacement.

OUR CUT EDGE CORROSION TREATMENT PROCESS

Step 1: Initial Consultation & Site Survey

Step one is a free, detailed inspection of your Winchester cladding. We measure the affected edges, assess the substrate and produce a clear written specification and quotation.

Step 2: Surface Preparation

We feather back the degraded plastisol to a sound edge, remove all rust mechanically and apply a rust-inhibiting bare-metal primer across the exposed steel on your Winchester cladding.

Step 3: Cut Edge Corrosion Treatment Application

We encapsulate the treated edge with Tor Elastaseal Fibretex or Delcote Seamsil, sealing the cut edge of every sheet on your Winchester building against further corrosion.

Step 4: Quality Checks & Final Handover

Brand-matched topcoats are applied over the treated edges, the work is inspected against the specification, and we issue your Insurance Backed Guarantee paperwork for your Winchester site.

Our projects

Sky London Campus

Sky – Sky 2 / Sky 4

Colorkote has successfully completed a number of large scale spraying and painting projects for Sky within their London Campus. Due to the construction of the new Flagship Sky Central office complex including studios, a number of existing buildings were looking tired and due to the high profile visitors that Sky attracts they wanted these buildings re-coated and brought up to date.

London

Residential Blocks

This group of 10 blocks of flats are undergoing full window replacement. The surrounding wooden fascia, soffits and shiplap boarding required full decoration to match the new wooden windows. All the 105 flats are occupied, meaning all works had to be carefully programmed to cause minimal disruption to the residents. All works were completed using fixed scaffolding supplied by the main contractor.

London

Waste Recycling Plant

The site was a blight on the landscape being a very large building of bright colour. The client wished to tone down the building to blend in with the local landscape. A 10 yr warranty was requested on the completed work, and the building required very specialist high-level access, especially for the chimneys. Additionally the site needed to remain fully operational with hundreds of lorry deliveries daily.
