Facade sealing in Pimlico, done properly
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Let us know what access exists or is planned, and any site rules we need to work around, and we will fit the work around it. Site teams most often ask us about perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and failed sealant on precast panel joints, across perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and cladding panel joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Pimlico? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Every London site, Pimlico included, is inside the ULEZ, which applies to deliveries and contractors’ vans alike. Alongside that, sites typically need booked deliveries and a plan for where materials go.
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.

When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:

- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Shopfront frames
- Cladding panel joints
- Coping and flashing joints

- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Stone and brick facade joints

Mastic packages on Pimlico sites
A good number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Pimlico. When hotels extend or refit, the work is normally squeezed between peak periods, mastic included. Every borough of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and that applies to contractors’ vehicles on any job in Pimlico. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team.
For contractors on a campus like University of the Arts London (1 mile south-west of Pimlico), facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates. New units and refits on sites such as Handel Business Centre (to the south-east of Pimlico) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Work at a hotel such as Melita Hotel, under half a mile north of Pimlico, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.
Pimlico is about 1 mile east of Brompton, in Greater London. Our applicators travel to Pimlico for work on facade joints. 764 places across Greater London fall within our area, including Pimlico.

What happens if it’s left?
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. Getting scaffold, permits or access booked in Pimlico takes effort, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Watch for splits, gaps at the edges, hardening and discolouration; record the locations.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down.
Your questions answered
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of the Arts London?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Will you take on work at estates like Handel Business Centre, close to Pimlico?
Yes, sites like Handel Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Pimlico. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
What hours do you work?
We are in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.
How long before the joints can be used?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Can the building stay open while you work?
In the majority of cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
Do you run new sealant over the existing bead?
No. A bead run over old sealant soon lifts. We remove the failed sealant, clean the faces, set the depth and reseal.
How the job changes by surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod with primer where the product requires it.
Render and coated surfaces
Where the joint will be painted over, a paintable hybrid or PU sealant may suit. We confirm the product with you before starting.
For managing agents and facilities managers
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
