Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Aldborough Hatch
Managing agents and owners in Aldborough Hatch ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. Either way, the method is the same: cut out, clean, back, prime where needed and seal. A 12-month guarantee applies to our workmanship. We work on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters, and what we’re called in for most is water coming in around window frames and cold air coming in at window perimeters. For commercial sealant work in Aldborough Hatch, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Aldborough Hatch must meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Add booked delivery slots and limited storage, and a London mastic package needs planning before the first bead.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

Signs you need facade sealing in Aldborough Hatch
Not every failure is in the sealant: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. When the joint edges need repair first, we say so.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
For a contractor working at a hospital such as King George Hospital, less than half a mile east of Aldborough Hatch, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
Questions to ask before you book
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Work on the window or framing system itself
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Cladding panel joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Shopfront frames
- Window and door perimeters
- Coping and flashing joints
After the work
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
- Share access with other external trades
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards with a compatible product.
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.

Our process
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Aldborough Hatch can be scarce. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- 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.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Before we start on site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

FAQs: Aldborough Hatch
Could you schedule work at a campus like University of East London for the vacation?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Can you work at a site such as Newbury Retail Park, by Aldborough Hatch?
Yes. Our area takes in Aldborough Hatch and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Newbury Retail Park included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. Send photographs or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
What the job involves on each surface
Coping and flashing joints
Sometimes the coping or flashing itself has failed. We tell you if the fix is a roofing or metalwork job rather than a reseal.
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, often a low-modulus silicone or hybrid.
