How we handle facade sealing in Kevington

Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. What we seal are the joints around them: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters with products suited to facade or glazing perimeter joints. We work on window and door perimeters, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and cladding panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are staining on stone next to old sealant and gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels. Searching for sealant specialists in Kevington? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Building sites in London tend to be tight: small compounds, delivery slots and shared hoists and scaffold. Mastic is typically one of the last trades on each elevation or floor, so we keep to the programme and the order of trades the site sets.

Work we carry out in Greater London comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will arrange a return visit.

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. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so a proper job first time, with the old sealant fully removed, is worth it.

No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

When something else is needed

We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:

  • Damaged frames that need replacing
  • Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
  • Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Window and door perimeters
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Shopfront frames

Our process

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. Planning a London job such as one in Kevington starts with access: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.

  1. We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
  2. We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
  3. Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
  4. Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
  5. Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
  6. Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Flag any permit to work we will need
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings
  • Agree which areas must stay open

Advice

Common questions from Kevington clients

Do you take on jobs in Kevington where loading and access are tightly controlled?

Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we will plan accordingly.

Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Greenwich Avery Hill Campus?

Yes. Education sites usually 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 just go over the old sealant?

No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?

No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. Our method is a full cut-out, cleaning, backing and a new bead.

Do you work in Kevington?

Yes. Kevington falls within our area, and you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to get started.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.

Can you work while the building is occupied?

Typically, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use, with each area protected and signed.

Doing it in-house

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.

Facades, frames and programmes in Kevington

The area within 2 miles of Kevington holds several hotels. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up. Every borough of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and that applies to contractors’ vehicles on any job in Kevington. Deliveries are booked and storage is tight, so mastic materials come in as needed.

Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as TLK Apartments & Hotel, 1.1 miles to the north-west of Kevington, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. Hospital estates such as Chelsfield Park Hospital (to the south of Kevington) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.

Do you need facade sealing in Kevington?

Sometimes the substrate is the problem: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. When the joint edges need repair first, we say so.

What tends to prompt an enquiry:

  • Air leaks through failed facade joints
  • Water coming in around window frames
  • Facade joints cracked through the middle
  • Old perimeter mastic that has dried out

Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Nugent Retail Park, 1.1 miles to the north-west of Kevington, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • Proof of insurance
  • Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
  • Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
