How we handle facade sealing in Shoreditch
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. The width has to suit the expected movement and the sealant’s movement capability, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear, often at around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises. Site teams most often ask us about perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, across window and door perimeters, stone and brick facade joints and cladding panel joints. Searching for sealant specialists in Shoreditch? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Mastic packages on Shoreditch sites
Plenty of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Shoreditch. When hotels extend or refit, the work is usually squeezed between peak periods, mastic included. As part of Greater London, Shoreditch is inside the ULEZ, which applies to every van on site. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team.
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Anchor Retail Park (to the east of Shoreditch) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. Hospital estates such as Mildmay Mission Hospital, less than half a mile to the north-east of Shoreditch, 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. Projects at colleges like London College of Fashion (under half a mile south-west of Shoreditch) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
How a job runs
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. For a job in Shoreditch, access comes first: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Advice
What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- The product specified
- Working within restricted access windows
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Location, for remote and island sites
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The postcode of the building
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
FAQs: Shoreditch
Does your area include sites such as Anchor Retail Park, near Shoreditch?
Yes, sites like Anchor Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Shoreditch. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we’ll plan accordingly. We allow for the ULEZ, which covers every borough
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, but not damage, misuse or other trades’ work.
When can you be on site?
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.
Do you work in Shoreditch?
Yes. Shoreditch is in our area, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving failed perimeter sealant also makes the eventual job bigger: wet edges break down, so repairs may be needed before resealing. Early action keeps it simple. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so cutting the old sealant out fully and doing it right once is the better route.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
