About our facade sealing in Chessington

We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters, using sealants classified for facade or glazing use. We work on coping and flashing joints, stone and brick facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and what we’re called in for most is failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and staining on stone next to old sealant. Most enquiries from Chessington start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Chessington must meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Add booked delivery slots and limited storage, and a London mastic package needs planning before the first bead.

We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

When to bring in a 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.

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

From enquiry to sign-off

On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, with the work itself normally taking longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.

  1. Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
  2. Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
  3. Failed beads are removed in full.
  4. Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
  5. Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
  6. The finished joints are checked with you.

Preparing the site

Advice

FAQs: Chessington

Can you work on a hospital site such as Tolworth Hospital?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.

Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Kingston University Penrhyn Road Campus?

Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.

When can you be on site?

Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.

Do you take on small jobs?

Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

Are you CHAS accredited?

Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Mastic packages on Chessington sites

Chessington has several 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. Every borough of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and that applies to contractors’ vehicles on any job in Chessington. Deliveries are booked and storage is tight, so mastic materials come in as needed.

Units on estates such as Barwell Business Park (to the south-west of Chessington) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal. New wings at hospitals like Tolworth Hospital (to the north-east of Chessington) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. On a campus such as Kingston University Penrhyn Road Campus, which lies north of Chessington, new teaching buildings and residences are normally built and refurbished around the academic year.

How the quote is worked out

There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:

  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • The product specified
  • The size and state of each joint
  • Location, for remote and island sites

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

Before you send an enquiry

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:

  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • The product your specification calls for
  • What the building is and how it’s used

The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to discuss it first.

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, saving a second set-up. Failed sealant in a building in Chessington can quickly affect neighbours, tenants or the floor below. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.

Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Why us?

  • Fully insured, including public liability cover
  • Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • Commercial sealant work since 2005

When it isn’t the sealant

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Specialist high-level access methods
  • Work on the window or framing system itself
  • Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing

If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.
