Facade sealing near Hurlingham
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Should maintenance staff do it?
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.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Facade sealing in Hurlingham
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, but not always. We will tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. The enquiries we see most involve gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, across cladding panel joints, window and door perimeters and shopfront frames. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Hurlingham 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.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Hurlingham must meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Add booked delivery slots and limited storage, and a London mastic package needs planning before the first bead.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Facades, frames and programmes in Hurlingham
Hurlingham has a good number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight. Every borough of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and that applies to contractors’ vehicles on any job in Hurlingham. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team.
New wings at hospitals like Chelsea and Westminster Hospital (1.2 miles north-east of Hurlingham) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.

For contractors at a college like South Thames College Wandsworth Campus, 1.1 miles to the south of Hurlingham, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.

Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding panel joints
On sealed panel systems, every joint keeps water out. We cut out failed joints along their full length and rebuild them to the correct depth.
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, and mask the edges carefully.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Cladding panel joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Shopfront frames
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
Maintenance after handover
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
After heavy weather, check vulnerable elevations for signs of water inside. An early report usually means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. One set-up for several trades saves money and cuts time on site.

Questions we’re asked in Hurlingham
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Chelsea and Westminster Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can work at a site such as BIMM University fit around teaching?
Yes. Education sites typically want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Can you find out why a window is leaking?
Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Failed perimeter sealant is a common cause, but not the only one, and we’ll be honest about which it is.
Can you fit around our working hours?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will schedule the work to suit. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Hurlingham can be scarce. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Let building users know which areas are affected
