How we handle facade sealing in Bakers Arms
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on offices, blocks and industrial units. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. We work on cladding panel joints, stone and brick facade joints and coping and flashing joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are previous reseals run over old sealant and cladding panel joints that have opened up. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Bakers Arms, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Around Bakers Arms, as across London, much of the work is refurbishing existing buildings as well as building new ones. Replacement windows, recladding and fit-outs leave perimeter and facade joints to seal, often next to people still using the building.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

How a job runs
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Planning a London job such as one in Bakers Arms starts with access: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Give us the hours we can be on site and we will schedule to suit.
- 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.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Getting the site ready
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Related advice
Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters
Frames grow and shrink with temperature, and the perimeter joint has to follow. Rod placed at the right depth lets the bead stretch.
Coping and flashing joints
Sometimes the coping or flashing itself has failed. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.
Contractors’ notes for Bakers Arms
There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Bakers Arms. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Bakers Arms included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Delivery slots and scarce storage shape how and when the mastic goes in.
For contractors at a college like Leyton Sixth Form College, which lies east of Bakers Arms, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays. For a contractor at a hotel such as Ibis Styles London Leyton Hotel, which lies south-west of Bakers Arms, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

Leave it or put it right?
Open facade joints also let air and dirt through: draughts around frames add to heating costs and complaints. A new seal closes the gap for both. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so while access is arranged it pays to renew all failing joints, not just the worst.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.

Questions we’re asked in Bakers Arms
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Whipps Cross University Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Bakers Arms, such as Lennox Trading Estate?
Yes, sites like Lennox Trading Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Bakers Arms. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you guarantee your work?

What hours do you work?
We are in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
Can you quote from photographs?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a description of the work.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. A bead run over old sealant soon lifts. Our method is a full cut-out, cleaning, backing and a new bead.
Aftercare for building managers
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed.
Building facade joints into a maintenance cycle avoids emergency repairs. Regular checks let you renew joints before water gets in, rather than waiting for a ceiling stain.
Work for main contractors and building owners
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Bakers Arms can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
