About our facade sealing in Seven Sisters
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure on commercial buildings in Seven Sisters. Where sealant is the specified fix, we also take on coping and flashing joints. We work on coping and flashing joints, shopfront frames and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and the failures we are asked to look at most are weathered facade joints that have lost their grip and failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Seven Sisters, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Seven Sisters 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.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Questions about Seven Sisters
Is hospital work, at somewhere like St Ann's Hospital, something you do?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Do you take on jobs in Seven Sisters where loading and access are tightly controlled?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. The building manager’s rules go straight into our method. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Do you cover Seven Sisters?
Yes. Seven Sisters is in our area and the rest of Greater London, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Will you quote for a small job?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
When to call us in Seven Sisters
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead, so the new bead peels away within a season or two.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
Hospital estates such as St Ann's Hospital (to the west of Seven Sisters) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
Why deal with it now?
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, often turning up far from the joint. Failed sealant in a building in Seven Sisters can quickly affect neighbours, tenants or the floor below: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Putting it right early is less disruptive than dealing with the consequences.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
Why appoint us
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- One number for every site we cover
- Colours confirmed for the specified product
- Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance

Work for main contractors and building owners
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around Seven Sisters. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Seven Sisters can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Seven Sisters can be scarce. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- Failed beads are removed in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
What we need from you
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Move anything stored against the joints
Quotes

How the job changes by surface
Precast concrete panels
Joints between precast panels carry real movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod.
Cladding panel joints
Panel joints on cladding and rainscreen systems take movement every day. The sealant has to match the movement and the panel finish.
New build and refits around Seven Sisters
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Seven Sisters 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 Seven Sisters. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
Units on estates such as Tottenham Hale Retail Park, 0.6 miles north-east of Seven Sisters, 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 American University in London (2.3 miles south-west of Seven Sisters), facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates.

Should maintenance staff do it?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
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.
