Facade sealing in Arnos Grove, done properly
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, and closed-cell rod sets the depth, keeping the bond to two faces. Most enquiries involve failed sealant on precast panel joints and leaks at window and door perimeters, on coping and flashing joints, window and door perimeters and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Most enquiries from Arnos Grove start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Building sites in London tend to be tight: small compounds, delivery slots and shared hoists and scaffold. Mastic is typically one of the last trades on each elevation or floor, so we keep to the programme and the order of trades the site sets.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Arnos Grove as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Doing it in-house
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Honest limits
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think.

- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
