Facade sealing in Seven Kings
We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Failed perimeter sealant is a frequent cause, though that isn’t the only cause. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. We work on coping and flashing joints, stone and brick facade joints and cladding panel joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are cladding panel joints that have opened up and damp patches beside frames after rain. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Seven Kings from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
A great deal of London construction is refurbishment of occupied or part-occupied buildings, alongside new blocks. Replacement windows, recladding and fit-outs leave perimeter and facade joints to seal, often next to people still using the building.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

When to call us in Seven Kings
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead, and the patch soon lifts.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Goodmayes Hospital, 0.9 miles north-east of Seven Kings, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- How they handle RAMS and site documents

How a job runs
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Building and refurbishing in Seven Kings
A 2-mile radius around Seven Kings takes in a good number of hotels. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Seven Kings included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team.
Units on estates such as Newbury Retail Park (to the north-west of Seven Kings) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal. For contractors on a campus like University of East London (3.9 miles south-west of Seven Kings), facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates.
Seven Kings is about 2 miles north of Barking, in Greater London. Our applicators travel to Seven Kings for work on facade joints. Across Greater London, 764 places are covered, Seven Kings among them. Our London page has more on work in that area, about 10 miles away.

Different surfaces, different methods
Coping and flashing joints
Sometimes the coping or flashing itself has failed. We tell you if the fix is a roofing or metalwork job rather than a reseal.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. Our work is that perimeter joint, not the framing or glazing itself.
Questions about Seven Kings
Do you take on jobs in Seven Kings where loading and access are tightly controlled?
Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Share the building’s contractor rules and we will work to them. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
Do you cover business parks and estates near Seven Kings, such as Newbury Retail Park?
Yes, sites like Newbury Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Seven Kings. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is your workmanship covered by a guarantee?
Yes. Workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Do you provide access for facade work?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. When you speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings, describe the access, and we’ll plan the work with you.
Can you just add new sealant on top?
No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. Our method is a full cut-out, cleaning, backing and a new bead.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. What we seal are the joints around frames and panels across the facade.
After the work
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Never let anyone seal over old sealant
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
If new signage, brackets or services are fixed through a sealed joint, the seal needs making good. Make sure the joint is resealed afterwards.
Check older buildings for asbestos before disturbing old mastic. Older sealants can contain asbestos, and if it’s suspected, we stop until it has been tested.
What affects the price in Seven Kings
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- How accessible the joints are
- How much existing material needs removing
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- How much there is to seal
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 we will put a fixed figure on it.
