Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. If others near Baker Street need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
Getting a fixed quote
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us to discuss it first.
Advice
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Baker Street
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on commercial buildings in Baker Street. Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. Most enquiries involve hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and previous reseals run over old sealant, across stone and brick facade joints, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and shopfront frames. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Baker Street first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In the countryside around places like Baker Street, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is usually what’s needed.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

What the job involves on each surface
Cladding panel joints
On sealed panel systems, every joint keeps water out. We cut out failed joints along their full length and rebuild them to the correct depth.
Render and coated surfaces
Rendered and painted facades need a sound edge for the sealant to bond to. Loose coatings are cleaned back first, and we will mention any edges that need repair.

Common questions from Baker Street clients
Does your area include sites such as Coward Trading Estate, near Baker Street?
Yes, sites like Coward Trading Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Baker Street. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Would you work within a site like Orsett Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
What will the job cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a description of the work.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters across the facade.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Do you need facade sealing in Baker Street?
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. UV and weather harden the sealant until it can’t stretch with the building, then it splits or peels.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Water coming in around window frames
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
For contractors at a college like USP College (1.8 miles south of Baker Street), perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.
Questions to ask before you book
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Their public liability cover
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
Contractors’ notes for Baker Street
Baker Street has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. Baker Street sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
For contractors at a school such as Orsett Church of England Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Orsett Hospital, less than half a mile to the east of Baker Street, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

Cost factors for facade joints
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- The product specified
- Any access equipment needed
- Working within restricted access windows
- Joint width, depth and condition
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The product your specification calls for
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Why it’s worth doing now in Baker Street
A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts, often turning up far from the joint. For buildings around smaller places like Baker Street, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Why appoint us
- Failed material removed, not covered up
- Clear, fixed quotes
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer.
