What else we do in Bowmans
Doing it in-house
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
How the job changes by surface
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. We confirm the product with you before starting.
Brick and stone facades
Brick and stone facades have perimeter and movement joints that need a compatible sealant. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone.
New build and refits around Bowmans
Bowmans is about 13 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Several hotels sit less than 2 miles from Bowmans. Hotel extensions and refits typically have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Tower Retail Park (0.8 miles north of Bowmans), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. New wings at hospitals like Little Brook Hospital (2.7 miles east of Bowmans) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. University estates such as University of Greenwich, 3.7 miles to the east of Bowmans, tend to have a rolling programme of new buildings and refurbishments, each with window perimeters and facade joints to seal.

From enquiry to sign-off
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. What matters most for a job in Bowmans is a clear list of what needs doing. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- 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
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Bowmans: questions and answers
Would you work within a site like Little Brook Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Bowmans too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Bowmans are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. That work needs a glazing specialist. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters on commercial buildings.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
In the majority of cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
Can you work on upper floors?
Access is planned with you before we quote. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you are arranging and any site restrictions, and we will price the work around it.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Bowmans
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Leave it or put it right?
If access is already up for other work, resealing at the same time makes sense. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once, which is often the biggest saving. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
