Why it’s worth doing now in Cheshunt
If access is already up for other work, resealing at the same time makes sense. Coordinating facade sealing with other external works avoids paying for access twice, which is often the biggest saving. For businesses and landlords in Cheshunt, a tidy, sound joint also matters for appearance. Renewing it keeps the building looking cared for.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

About our facade sealing in Cheshunt
We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: the frame-to-structure perimeter, panel-to-panel joints and window and door surrounds with products suited to facade or glazing perimeter joints. The enquiries we see most involve previous reseals run over old sealant and air leaks through failed facade joints, on stone and brick facade joints, cladding panel joints and coping and flashing joints. Most enquiries from Cheshunt start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Developers and contractors working in Cheshunt want mastic that keeps pace with the build: sealing as scaffold comes down or as each floor is decorated, and snagging before handover. Tell us the programme and we will quote to it.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Our process
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Parking and loading for town-centre jobs in Cheshunt are worth mentioning when you send details. Industrial and business units typically have yard or car park space.
- First we review photos, 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.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Common problems we fix in Cheshunt
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead, so the new bead peels away within a season or two.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
Older buildings in the area around Cheshunt, such as Forty Hall, 3 miles south of Cheshunt, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.
What your quote should include
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint

Common questions from Cheshunt clients
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Cheshunt Community Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Hertford College: Broxbourne Campus?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we’ll plan the work around them. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
Low-modulus, neutral-cure silicone suits many facade and perimeter joints. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, depending on the substrate and the specification.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Specialist high-level access methods
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The size and state of each joint
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- The postcode of the building
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Facade sealing in Cheshunt: the local picture
Cheshunt is about 15 miles from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. A 2-mile radius around Cheshunt takes in a number of hotels. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
On a healthcare site such as Cheshunt Community Hospital (1.1 miles south-east of Cheshunt), new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. For contractors at a college like Hertford College: Broxbourne Campus, 1.4 miles to the north-east of Cheshunt, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.
