Facade sealing in East Hanney
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. If you have perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and old perimeter mastic that has dried out, we can help. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in East Hanney is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as East Hanney bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is normally what’s needed.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Why it’s worth doing now in East Hanney
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. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like East Hanney. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
What you get with us
- Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
- Commercial sealant work since 2005
- One number for every site we cover
- Colour options checked against the specified product
Different surfaces, different methods
Render and coated surfaces
Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. We confirm the product with you before starting.
Window and door perimeters
Frame materials vary, and so does the preparation. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.
Common problems we fix in East Hanney
When the sealant tears down its centre, it has typically been asked to move more than it can. Too thin a bead, too narrow a joint or a product with the wrong movement class are common reasons.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Weathered facade joints that have lost their grip
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Water coming in around window frames
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
School extensions, at buildings such as St James Church of England Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.

East Hanney: questions and answers
Do you cover business parks and estates near East Hanney, such as Grovelands Shopping Centre?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around East Hanney, Grovelands Shopping Centre among them, are all within reach. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is East Hanney too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. East Hanney is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely and the joint cleaned back to sound material. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
Can you fit around our working hours?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will schedule the work to suit. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. What we seal are the joints around frames and panels on commercial buildings.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Can you quote from photos?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.
How a job runs
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself typically taking longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. Smaller jobs around East Hanney can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- 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 both faces cleaned back.
- 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.
Getting the site ready
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
Ask for a quote
The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to discuss it first.

Looking after the joints
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
- Share access with other external trades
Anything drilled through a facade joint breaks the seal. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards using a matching sealant.
Building facade joints into a maintenance cycle avoids emergency repairs. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail instead of after the damage.
Mastic packages on East Hanney sites
East Hanney is about 57 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. East Hanney sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Grovelands Shopping Centre, 2.4 miles south-west of East Hanney, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. Older buildings in the area around East Hanney, such as Longworth House, 4.5 miles to the north-west of East Hanney, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.
