How we handle facade sealing in Furzedown
Most facade joint failures trace back to the joint, not just the sealant. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear. Site teams most often ask us about perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and weathered facade joints that have lost their grip, across shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and stone and brick facade joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Furzedown tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Furzedown must meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Alongside that, sites typically need booked deliveries and a plan for where materials go.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Leave it or put it right?
The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Acting at the first sign of splitting keeps the fix simple. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party. Putting it right early is less disruptive than dealing with the consequences.
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.

FAQs: Furzedown
Is hospital work, at somewhere like St George's Hospital, something you do?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Can work at a site such as University of the Arts London fit around teaching?
Yes. Education sites typically want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. That work needs a glazing specialist. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters across the facade.
Will rain stop the work?
We can work through the year, but sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures within the product’s range. Cold, damp mornings can delay a start, so we plan around the forecast.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Is any job too small?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
How much does the work cost?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. Send photos or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
Facade sealing around Furzedown: points for this area
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Furzedown included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team. Furzedown has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
For a contractor working at a hospital such as St George's Hospital, which lies west of Furzedown, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Leigham Court Hotel, 1.3 miles north-east of Furzedown, typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. For contractors at a college like South Thames College Tooting Centre (0.9 miles west of Furzedown), perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.

What sealant work can’t fix

- Specialist high-level access methods
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints

For managing agents and facilities managers
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Furzedown can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
Should maintenance staff do it?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- The existing bead comes out in full.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
Getting the site ready
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
Getting a fixed quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

What else we do in Furzedown
Surface by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
These frame-to-structure joints take a lot of movement and weather. They are cut out, cleaned, backed and resealed using a sealant classified for that use.
Coping and flashing joints
Where the specification calls for sealant at copings or flashings, we can seal them. They sit in the most exposed positions on the building and need a durable external sealant.
