What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Access and working height
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The size and state of each joint
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Before you send an enquiry
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Common questions from Regents Park clients
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Western Community Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Liners Industrial Estate, near Regents Park, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Regents Park and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Liners Industrial Estate included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. We don’t install glazing systems, windows or glass. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
How long will the new sealant last?
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.
Will rain stop the work?
Rain and frost can pause external sealing. We plan for weather and keep you updated as the work goes on.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited, we are a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
Doing it in-house
Redoing a failed joint normally 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.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.

What else we do in Regents Park
What we’re called out for in Regents Park
Cohesive failure, a split through the middle of the bead, points to an over-stretched joint. Too thin a bead, too narrow a joint or a product with the wrong movement class are common reasons.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
For contractors at a school such as Regents Park Community College, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
What your quote should include
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- The named product and why it was chosen
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
Facade sealing around Regents Park: points for this area
With the shore within about 1 mile, Regents Park counts as a coastal location. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of Regents Park. Hotel extensions and refits usually have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
Building work at universities like University of Southampton (1.8 miles east of Regents Park) is often timed for the summer, mastic included. New wings at hospitals like Western Community Hospital, less than half a mile north-west of Regents Park, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.

Different surfaces, different methods
Brick and stone facades
Brick and stone facades have perimeter and movement joints that need a compatible sealant. We avoid acetoxy silicone, which can stain some natural stone.
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. The sealant has to match the movement and the panel finish.
How a job runs
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For a job in Regents Park, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. A fixed quote follows.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- 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.
Preparing the site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Send any specification or drawings in advance

Why it’s worth doing now in Regents Park
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts. Small buildings around Regents Park suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
