Facade sealing across Primrose Hill
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
When to bring in a specialist
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
About our facade sealing in Primrose Hill
Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Tell us about access: whether scaffold is already up, what the client is arranging, and any restrictions on the site, so the price covers the real job. We work on stone and brick facade joints, shopfront frames and cladding panel joints, and what we are called in for most is gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels and staining on stone next to old sealant. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Primrose Hill first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Building sites in London tend to be tight: small compounds, delivery slots and shared hoists and scaffold. Mastic is usually one of the last trades on each elevation or floor, so we keep to the programme and the order of trades the site sets.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

How a job runs
We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we’re cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. In Primrose Hill, most buildings stay in use during the work, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Related advice
Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair.
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think.

Your questions answered
Can you work on a hospital site such as Hospital of St John and St Elizabeth?
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 Regent's University London fit around teaching?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Will rain stop the work?
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.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.

Facade sealing in Primrose Hill: the local picture
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Primrose Hill included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. London sites also mean booked deliveries and limited storage, which the mastic programme has to allow for. There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of Primrose Hill. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
On a campus such as Regent's University London, 1 mile south of Primrose Hill, new teaching buildings and residences are typically built and refurbished around the academic year. New units and refits on sites such as Regis Road Business Park (1 mile north-east of Primrose Hill) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Queen's Hotel, under half a mile east of Primrose Hill, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
