Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Greenhill
We don’t install glazing systems or replace glass. What we seal are the joints around them: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters. The enquiries we see most involve discoloured or dirty facade joints and failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames, on shopfront frames, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and coping and flashing joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Greenhill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Construction in a London area such as Greenhill means working on constrained sites: small compounds, delivery slots and shared hoists and scaffold. We fit around the programme, sealing each elevation or floor as other trades hand over.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Greater London. If an installation problem shows up, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Record the product and colour used on each elevation
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Ask the installer to reseal it properly with a compatible product.
Deal with sections that fail early as soon as they show. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones behind the facade.
Questions we’re asked in Greenhill
Is Harrovian Business Village, near Greenhill, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Greenhill, Harrovian Business Village among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we will plan accordingly. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Is Greenhill in your area?

What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
Low-modulus, neutral-cure silicone suits many facade and perimeter joints. Hybrid or MS polymer, polyurethane and polysulphide sealants suit others, depending on the substrate and the specification.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
How long before the joints can be used?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
What we’re called out for in Greenhill
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Weathered joints at frame-to-structure perimeters
- Water coming in around window frames
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Crescent Hotel, under half a mile south-west of Greenhill, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.

- How the existing material will be dealt with
Should maintenance staff do it?
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, 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.
What happens if it’s left?
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. 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. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.
Pricing facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Advice
Facade sealing in Greenhill: the local picture
A 2-mile radius around Greenhill takes in a number of hotels. When hotels extend or refit, the work is normally squeezed between peak periods, mastic included. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Greenhill 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.
When a college such as Harrow College, less than half a mile to the south of Greenhill, builds or refurbishes, the mastic package typically has to fit around students and staff. New units and refits on sites such as Harrovian Business Village (to the south-west of Greenhill) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.
