About our facade sealing in Hainault
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day, and they wear out over time. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When the time comes, we cut the old sealant out completely and start again. Most enquiries involve perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and previous reseals run over old sealant, across shopfront frames, coping and flashing joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Hainault is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around Hainault, 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.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Hainault as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Facades, frames and programmes in Hainault
Site traffic in Hainault falls within London’s ULEZ, like everywhere else in Greater London. Delivery slots and scarce storage shape how and when the mastic goes in. The area within 2 miles of Hainault holds a number of hotels. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
New wings at hospitals like King George Hospital, 1.9 miles south-east of Hainault, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Projects at colleges like New City College (1.8 miles south of Hainault) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly. New units and refits on sites such as Newbury Retail Park, 2 miles to the south of Hainault, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

Related advice
Leave it or put it right?
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Leaks travel along the structure, often turning up far from the joint. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.

Keeping the joints sound
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. An early report typically means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.
Planned resealing is cheaper than reacting to leaks. Regular checks let you renew joints before water gets in.
Owners, agents and contractors
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Hainault can form part of a wider programme.
Questions we are asked in Hainault
Can work at a site such as University of Portsmouth Walthamstow Campus fit around teaching?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Is a hospital such as King George Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
What type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
It depends on the joint, the substrate and any specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Do you seal facades in winter?
Wet joints or temperatures outside the product’s range mean waiting. The programme allows for it and we tell you if the forecast changes things throughout the job.
Do you work in Hainault?
Yes. We cover Hainault, and the simplest way to start is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
For older buildings, yes, check before work starts. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder, and we’ll ask to see it. Suspect material is left alone until it has been tested.
