Facade sealing in Anerley, done properly
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. If you have perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and cold air coming in at window perimeters, we can put it right, whatever the surface. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Anerley from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around Anerley, as across London, much of the work is refurbishing existing buildings as well as building new ones. New frames, overcladding and fit-outs all end in perimeter and facade joints, frequently with occupants close by.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

What affects the price in Anerley
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How much existing material needs removing
- The product specified
- Travel to remote or island sites
A quote for facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- Any specification or named product
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- When you need the work done
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- 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. Ask the installer to reseal it properly using a matching sealant.
Get the joint design right when resealing: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. Repeating a faulty detail just repeats the failure.
Honest limits
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- Failed beads are removed in full.

Sites and facades in and around Anerley
Several hotels sit less than 2 miles from Anerley. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. As part of Greater London, Anerley is inside the ULEZ, which applies to every van on site. Deliveries are booked and storage is tight, so mastic materials come in as needed.
On a campus such as King's College London (3.9 miles north of Anerley), new teaching buildings and residences are usually built and refurbished around the academic year. Work at a hotel such as Astra Palace Hotel (to the north of Anerley) tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.
Anerley is about 2 miles north-east of Thornton Heath, in Greater London. Our applicators travel to Anerley for work on facade joints. We work across 764 places in Greater London, from busy centres to rural villages. Our London page has more on work in that area.
If you need facade sealing in SE20, SE19 and SE26, the process matches everywhere else we work: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee.

Landmarks near Anerley
Locally, jobs take us to sites close to Crystal Palace School, Crystal Palace Dinosaurs and Harris City Academy Crystal Palace and the streets around them. There’s a railway station in Anerley itself: Anerley station. Nearby you’ll also find Crystal Palace Museum (0.5 miles north-west) and Whitgift Centre (3.1 miles south-west). The countryside around Anerley includes Dulwich Upper Wood and Knight's Hill.
Doing it in-house
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Questions we are asked in Anerley
Do you cover business parks and estates near Anerley, such as Franklin Industrial Estate?
Yes. We cover Anerley and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Franklin Industrial Estate. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Do you seal facades in winter?
Rain and frost can pause external sealing. The programme allows for it and we tell you if the forecast changes things as the work goes on.
How soon can the area be used again?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.
Do you use silicone for external joints?
It depends on the joint, the substrate and any specification. Specifications often refer to BS EN 15651-1 for facade sealants or BS EN 15651-2 for glazing and we follow the specified product.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely. That is what makes the new joint last.
Common problems we fix in Anerley
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. UV and weather harden the sealant until it can’t stretch with the building.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
Units on estates such as Franklin Industrial Estate, 0.6 miles to the east of Anerley, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
