How we handle facade sealing in Enfield

Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. Site teams most often ask us about failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and failed sealant on precast panel joints, on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints. Most enquiries from Enfield 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.

Around Enfield, as across London, much of the work is refurbishing existing buildings as well as building new ones. New frames, overcladding and fit-outs all end in perimeter and facade joints, frequently with occupants close by, so tidy, well-planned work matters.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What sealant work can’t fix

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:

  • Installing or repairing glazing systems
  • Render or concrete edges that have broken away
  • Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client

If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Where we work in Enfield

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

On site: what to expect

Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Enfield can be scarce. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.

  1. Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
  2. We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
  3. Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
  4. Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
  5. Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
  6. Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Let us know about inductions and permits

What we’re called out for in Enfield

Sometimes the substrate is the problem: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.

Common reasons buildings call us in:

  • Damp patches beside frames after rain
  • Failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames
  • Discoloured or dirty facade joints
  • Patch repairs that keep failing

For a contractor working at a hospital such as St Michael's Community Hospital, 0.7 miles north of Enfield, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

How to choose a sealant contractor

What the job involves on each surface

Perimeter joints at frames and structure

The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. We seal those perimeter joints.

Window and door perimeters

Frame materials vary, and so does the preparation. Primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it for that substrate.

Common questions from Enfield clients

Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?

Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Share the building’s contractor rules and we will work to them. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for

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

Yes. Education sites normally 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.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form. Include photos or drawings if you have them.

When can you be on site?

Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.

Can you work on upper floors?

Access is planned with you before we quote. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you’re arranging and any site restrictions.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

Building and refurbishing in Enfield

Every borough of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and that applies to contractors’ vehicles on any job in Enfield. Deliveries are booked and storage is tight, so mastic materials come in as needed. The area within 2 miles of Enfield holds a number of hotels. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.

Projects at colleges like Capital City College (to the east of Enfield) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly. Units on estates such as Colosseum Retail Park (to the east of Enfield) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.

Cost factors for facade joints

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:

  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

What to include in your enquiry

A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:

  • What the building is and how it’s used
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • The postcode of the building
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule

The quickest route to a quote is a few photographs and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings to discuss it first.

Why act early in Enfield

Topping up a failed joint typically buys very little time. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer and avoids repeat call-outs. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party: 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.

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
