How we handle facade sealing in Norwood New Town
Some clients need every window on a block resealed; others need a few leaking frames sorted. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. If you’re dealing with draughts around frames and panels and damp patches beside frames after rain, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Norwood New Town start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Norwood New Town 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.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Common questions from Norwood New Town clients
Can you work at a site such as Hamilton Road Industrial Estate, by Norwood New Town?
Yes. We cover Norwood New Town and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Hamilton Road Industrial Estate. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Would you work within a site like British Home & Hospital for Incurables?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Can you find out why a window is leaking?
Yes. Photos help, and you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to arrange a visit. Failed perimeter sealant is a common cause, but not the only one, and we’ll tell you which.
Can you send site paperwork?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Do you take on small jobs?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
How a job runs
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. Planning a London job such as one in Norwood New Town starts with access. Give us the hours we can be on site and we’ll schedule to suit.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Closed-cell rod fixes the depth, and the sealant grips two sides only.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- The completed runs are checked with you, then the 12-month guarantee applies.
What we need from you
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
Request a quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

What sets the cost
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Which sealant the job calls for
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 you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Sending details for a quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- The site address and postcode
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Your programme or deadline
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.
Contractors’ notes for Norwood New Town
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Norwood New Town included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Delivery slots and scarce storage shape how and when the mastic goes in. The area within 2 miles of Norwood New Town holds several hotels. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
Hotels like Astra Palace Hotel (to the north-east of Norwood New Town) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Hamilton Road Industrial Estate, which lies north of Norwood New Town, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For contractors at a college like Capel Manor College, which lies east of Norwood New Town, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.

Surface by surface
Brick and stone facades
On masonry, the sealant has to suit a porous, textured surface. Neutral-cure products are used because acetoxy types can mark some stone.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Perimeter joints at frames often show their age first. We cut them out, prepare both faces and reseal to the specification with a product suited to glazing perimeters.
Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
