General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Harestock
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. Most enquiries involve old perimeter mastic that has dried out and discoloured or dirty facade joints, on stone and brick facade joints, window and door perimeters and cladding panel joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Harestock is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Conversions around smaller places like Harestock often join new frames to old masonry or timber, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before the next one starts. For a site in Harestock, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Clear photographs and measurements help us bring the right products.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
What we need from you
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Why it’s worth doing now in Harestock
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Coordinating facade sealing with other external works avoids paying for access twice. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.
Why appoint us
- Old sealant cut out, never sealed over
- Our applicators hold CSCS cards
- CHAS accredited contractor
- A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
See our cost guide and our accreditations.
Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Keep high-pressure jets and strong chemicals away from new sealant, so brief your window cleaners.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Older sealants can contain asbestos, and work stops until it’s tested if it’s suspected.
When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Cladding panel joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
How the quote is worked out
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Access and working height
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Access details, including height
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us with what you know.

What else we do in Harestock
FAQs: Harestock
Does your area include sites such as Wykeham Industrial Estate, near Harestock?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Harestock, Wykeham Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Sarum Road Hospital (BMI)?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
How long does a typical visit take?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit normally takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
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.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Building and refurbishing in Harestock
Central London is about 61 miles from Harestock. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. There are a good number of hotels within about 2 miles of Harestock. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
Projects at colleges like Peter Symonds College, 0.6 miles south of Harestock, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly. New wings at hospitals like Sarum Road Hospital (BMI), 1.5 miles south of Harestock, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as The Winchester Hotel (1.2 miles south-east of Harestock), typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
