How we handle facade sealing in Farringdon
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure for clients around Farringdon. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. We work on cladding panel joints, shopfront frames and coping and flashing joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are staining on stone next to old sealant and cold air coming in at window perimeters.

Every London site, Farringdon included, is inside the ULEZ, which applies to deliveries and contractors’ vans alike. Alongside that, sites typically need booked deliveries and a plan for where materials go.

Why deal with it now?
Topping up a failed joint usually buys very little time. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds. In Farringdon, each extra visit means more notices, permits and disruption, so cutting the old sealant out fully and doing it right once is the better route.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
Why appoint us
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available

What we are called out for in Farringdon
Sun, rain and temperature swings wear facade sealant down over the years. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint, then it splits or peels.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
On a campus such as Queen Mary's University West Smithfield Campus, which lies south-east of Farringdon, new teaching buildings and residences are normally built and refurbished around the academic year.

Coping and flashing joints
Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod.
Sites and facades in and around Farringdon
A good number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Farringdon. Hotel extensions and refits usually have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight. Every borough of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and that applies to contractors’ vehicles on any job in Farringdon. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team.
On a healthcare site such as St Bartholomew's Hospital, which lies south-east of Farringdon, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully. When units on a site such as Grand Vitesse Industrial Estate (to the south of Farringdon) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

Farringdon: questions and answers
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like St Bartholomew's Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we’ll plan accordingly. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
Is any job too small?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
What will the job cost?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
How a job runs
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Planning a London job such as one in Farringdon starts with access: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Give us the hours we can be on site and we’ll schedule to suit.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- Failed beads are removed in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Preparing the site
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Advice
Doing it in-house
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
