Facade sealing for Temple Hill sites

Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.

Doing it in-house

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Facade sealing in Temple Hill, done properly

Every facade quote starts with how the joints will be reached. Let us know what access exists or is planned, and any site rules we need to work around, so the price covers the real job. If you’re dealing with previous reseals run over old sealant and cold air coming in at window perimeters, we can put it right. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Temple Hill it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Conversions around smaller places like Temple Hill often join new frames to old masonry or timber, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.

We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Questions we are asked in Temple Hill

Is a smaller place like Temple Hill outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Greenwich?

Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.

Will you come and look before quoting?

Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.

Can weather delay the job?

It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

Do you install glazing systems?

No. That work needs a glazing specialist. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters.

Can staff carry on working while you’re here?

In most cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use.

What hours do you work?

Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.

From enquiry to sign-off

Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Temple Hill need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.

  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. Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. The finished joints are checked with you.

Before we start on site

  • Flag any permit to work we will need
  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Keeping the joints sound

For the best life from the joints:

  • Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
  • Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
  • Investigate damp beside windows promptly
  • Record the product and colour used on each elevation

Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead and tell your cleaning contractor.

Use each reseal to correct the joint: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. A well-designed joint lasts longer than a like-for-like copy of a failed one.

Owners, agents and contractors

As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients 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.

When something else is needed

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
  • Work on the window or framing system itself
  • Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign

If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we seal

  • Coping and flashing joints
  • Shopfront frames
  • Cladding panel joints
  • Stone and brick facade joints
  • Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
  • Window and door perimeters

Surface by surface

Precast concrete panels

Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. A sealant of the right movement class goes in over backing rod.

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.

Facades, frames and programmes in Temple Hill

Temple Hill is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. A 2-mile radius around Temple Hill takes in a number of hotels. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.

When a college such as North Kent College (to the south-west of Temple Hill) builds or refurbishes, the mastic package usually has to fit around students and staff. When units on a site such as Riverside Industrial Estate, less than half a mile to the north-west of Temple Hill, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Little Brook Hospital, 0.8 miles east of Temple Hill, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
