Facade sealing across Strand-on-the-Green

About our facade sealing in Strand-on-the-Green

Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. Most enquiries involve old perimeter mastic that has dried out and unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and cladding panel joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Strand-on-the-Green tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Around Strand-on-the-Green, as across London, much of the work is refurbishing existing buildings as well as building new ones. New frames, overcladding and fit-outs all end in perimeter and facade joints, frequently with occupants close by.

We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Facades, frames and programmes in Strand-on-the-Green

The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Strand-on-the-Green 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. A 2-mile radius around Strand-on-the-Green takes in plenty of hotels. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.

For a contractor working at a hospital such as Clayponds Hospital (1.2 miles north-west of Strand-on-the-Green), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Kew Retail Park, 0.5 miles to the south of Strand-on-the-Green, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters.

Strand-on-the-Green is about 2 miles south of Acton, in Greater London. Across the W4 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Our Greater London coverage takes in 764 places, from busy centres to rural villages. London is covered too, some 8 miles away.

If you need facade sealing in W4, TW9 and TW8, the process matches everywhere else we work: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. If your site is on Kew Road, Maze Road and Kent Road or close by, we can quote for facade joints. Strand-on-the-Green sits on or close to the A3000, useful when we plan access and materials. Sites close to Strand-on-the-Green are covered too, including Kew (1 mile south), Grove Park (1 mile east), Gunnersbury (1 mile north), North Sheen (1 mile south) and Turnham Green (1 mile east). Bigger towns within reach include London (8 miles east), City of Westminster (6 miles east), Marylebone (6 miles east), Kensington (3 miles east), St Pancras (7 miles north-east) and Shoreditch (9 miles east).

Owners, agents and contractors

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

After the work

Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:

  • Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
  • Keep the sealant details on the building file
  • Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
  • Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings

Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. An early report typically means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.

Check older buildings for asbestos before disturbing old mastic. Some older mastics contain it, and work stops until it’s tested if it’s suspected.

Your questions answered

Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Clayponds Hospital?

Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.

Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?

Yes, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.

Can you handle several sites?

Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.

Do you guarantee your work?

Yes, for 12 months. If our installation fails in that time, we return and fix it.

Do you replace windows or glass?

No. A glazing contractor handles that. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters across the facade.

Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Check the asbestos register or survey before it is disturbed, and if anything is suspected, we stop until it’s tested. Removal of asbestos isn’t something we do.

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.

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, so the real damage is often some distance away. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so while access is arranged it pays to renew all failing joints, not just the worst.

Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

Do you need facade sealing in Strand-on-the-Green?

Sometimes the substrate is the problem: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. We tell you when the edges need repairing before resealing.

Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:

  • Draughts around frames and panels
  • Failed sealant on precast panel joints
  • Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
  • Previous reseals run over old sealant

For a contractor at a hotel such as Clayton Hotel Chiswick (0.6 miles north of Strand-on-the-Green), the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

What to look for in a quote

  • Their approach to joint depth and backing
  • The terms of the workmanship guarantee
  • Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it

How to choose a sealant contractor

Doing it in-house

The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

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. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Strand-on-the-Green can be scarce. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.

  1. Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
  2. We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
  3. Failed beads are removed in full and the joint faces cleaned.
  4. Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
  5. Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
  6. We go over the completed work with you before leaving.

Getting the site ready

  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Flag any permit to work we’ll need
  • Move anything stored against the joints
