Questions about Burlington Estate
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. The building manager’s rules go straight into our method. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Do you cover business parks and estates near Burlington Estate, such as Brompton Cross District Shopping Centre.?
Yes. Our area takes in Burlington Estate and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Brompton Cross District Shopping Centre. Included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. Workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
Do you replace windows or glass?
No. Glazing, windows and glass replacement aren’t part of our work. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
Normally, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
How we handle facade sealing in Burlington Estate
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, but not always. We’ll tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. If you have failed sealant on precast panel joints and previous reseals run over old sealant, we can put it right. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Burlington Estate? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.

New build and refits around Burlington Estate
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Burlington Estate 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. Burlington Estate has a good number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
On a healthcare site such as The London Welbeck Hospital, which lies north-west of Burlington Estate, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. Projects at colleges like Westminster Kingsway College Soho Centre, less than half a mile to the north-east of Burlington Estate, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.

What the job involves on each surface
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair first.
Coping and flashing joints
Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.

Our process
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself usually taking a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. Planning a London job such as one in Burlington Estate starts with access. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- Failed beads are removed in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
What we need from you
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

Owners, agents and contractors
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Burlington Estate can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Greater London.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Burlington Estate. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.
What sets the cost
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Any access equipment needed
- The total length or number of joints
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Before you send an enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The postcode of the building
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Signs you need facade sealing in Burlington Estate
When sealant lets go of a frame or panel, the cause is often the preparation. Dust, old sealant residue, damp or a missing primer stop it bonding properly.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- Water coming in around window frames
Units on estates such as Brompton Cross District Shopping Centre. (1.6 miles south-west of Burlington Estate) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
What to look for in a quote
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- What site paperwork they can supply
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
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.
