Facade sealing in Crofton Park, done properly
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear. The enquiries we see most involve previous reseals run over old sealant and old perimeter mastic that has dried out, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, window and door perimeters and stone and brick facade joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Crofton Park from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Crofton Park 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Owners, agents and contractors
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
On site: what to expect
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather, and we clear our waste as we work. Planning a London job such as one in Crofton Park starts with access. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- 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.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
What we need from you
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
Quotes
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Advice
General trades versus a specialist
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Signs you need facade sealing in Crofton Park
Adhesive failure, where the sealant peels away from one face, typically comes from poor preparation. Contamination, moisture or skipping the primer the maker specifies leave a weak bond, and movement soon pulls it away.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
- Water coming in around window frames
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Bell Green Retail Park, 1.4 miles to the south of Crofton Park, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
Questions to ask before you book
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How joint depth will be controlled
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
Mastic packages on Crofton Park sites
There are a good number of hotels within about 2 miles of Crofton Park. 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, Crofton Park included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Deliveries are booked and storage is tight, so mastic materials come in as needed.
For contractors on a campus like University of Greenwich - Greenwich Campus (2.3 miles north-east of Crofton Park), facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates. For contractors at a school such as Stillness Infant School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.

What else we do in Crofton Park
Crofton Park: questions and answers
Can work at a site such as University of Greenwich - Greenwich Campus fit around teaching?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is Bell Green Retail Park, near Crofton Park, within your area?
Yes. We cover Crofton Park and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Bell Green Retail Park. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, as long as we plan it. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
Most facade and window perimeter joints take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead.
Do you provide access for facade work?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. When you phone 01277 525 020 or email us, describe the access, and we will plan the work with you.
Leave it or put it right?
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. Failed sealant in a building in Crofton Park can quickly affect neighbours, tenants or the floor below: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Putting it right early is less disruptive than dealing with the consequences.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
