How we handle facade sealing in Furneux Pelham
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. If you’re dealing with cladding panel joints that have opened up and unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation, we can put it right, on window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and coping and flashing joints alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Furneux Pelham first comes to us: 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 Furneux Pelham can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photographs and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

What happens if it’s left?
Failed joints let in more than water: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. A new seal closes the gap for both. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Furneux Pelham. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Furneux Pelham: questions and answers
Does your area include sites such as Oaks Industrial Park, near Furneux Pelham?
Yes. Our area takes in Furneux Pelham and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Oaks Industrial Park included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Is Furneux Pelham too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
How do I request a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Do you seal facades in winter?
Year-round work is possible as long as joints are dry and temperatures suit the product. Frost and condensation on glass and steel are common on winter mornings.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
How soon can the area be used again?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.
Cost factors for facade joints
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Travel to remote or island sites
- The total length or number of joints
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Before you send an enquiry
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- The site address and postcode
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Common problems we fix in Furneux Pelham
Not every failure is in the sealant: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. When the joint edges need repair first, we say so.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Oaks Industrial Park, 1 mile north-east of Furneux Pelham, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- The named product and why it was chosen
Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Add perimeter sealant to planned maintenance checks
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Keep high-pressure jets and strong chemicals away from new sealant and tell your cleaning contractor.
Get the joint design right when resealing: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. Repeating a faulty detail just repeats the failure.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Our process
On arrival, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself typically taking anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. Jobs in and around smaller places like Furneux Pelham are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
