Facade sealing in Eastwick, done properly

Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. What we seal are the joints around them: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters, using sealants classified for facade or glazing use. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and window and door perimeters, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Most enquiries from Eastwick 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.

Sites around smaller places like Eastwick can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Hertfordshire. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

Different surfaces, different methods

Render and coated surfaces

Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. We confirm the product with you before starting.

Cladding panel joints

Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. We use a product rated for the movement and suited to the panel surface, as the specification sets out.

Honest limits

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:

  • Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
  • Providing access systems for the work
  • Replacing glass or failed glazing units

If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think before you book.

Where we work in Eastwick

  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Shopfront frames
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Window and door perimeters

After the work

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
  • Never let anyone seal over old sealant
  • Avoid harsh cleaners on facade sealant
  • Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed

Blocked sills and gutters push water at the joints. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade.

Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. A few metres resealed promptly can stop water damage spreading.

Sites and facades in and around Eastwick

Eastwick lies roughly 21 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. The area within 2 miles of Eastwick holds several hotels. Hotel extensions and refits usually have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.

New wings at hospitals like Princess Alexandra Hospital (to the south of Eastwick) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Units on estates such as Harlow Enterprise Centre (to the south-east of Eastwick) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.

Eastwick is about 2 miles north-west of Harlow, in Hertfordshire. We cover commercial sites throughout Eastwick. Eastwick is one of 371 places in Hertfordshire on our list for facade joints. Sites around London have their own page, roughly 21 miles from Eastwick.

Common problems we fix in Eastwick

New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead.

Common reasons buildings call us in:

  • Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
  • Failed sealant on precast panel joints
  • Cold air coming in at window perimeters
  • Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation

Projects at schools like Pemberley Academy work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

How to choose a sealant contractor

Leave it or put it right?

Failed joints let in more than water: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. A new seal closes the gap for both. For buildings around smaller places like Eastwick, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

FAQs: Eastwick

Is Eastwick off your patch?

No. Places such as Eastwick are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Could you schedule work at a campus like Harlow College for the vacation?

Yes. Education sites typically want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.

Which sealant do you use on facades?

Low-modulus, neutral-cure silicone suits many facade and perimeter joints. Some joints call for hybrid, PU or polysulphide instead, as the specification or substrate requires.

Are you insured?

Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

How much does the work cost?

It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

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.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. If others near Eastwick need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
  2. Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
  3. Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
  4. Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
  5. The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
  6. We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.

Before we start on site

  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Confirm the product named in the specification
