About our facade sealing in Todd's Green
Sealant around windows, doors and cladding panels stops rain reaching the wall behind. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We remove failed sealant and install a new bead chosen for the joint and how far it moves. If you are dealing with failed sealant on precast panel joints and previous reseals run over old sealant, we can put it right, whatever the surface. For commercial sealant work in Todd's Green, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Around smaller places like Todd's Green, building work normally means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
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.

Facade sealing around Todd's Green: what changes locally
A 2-mile radius around Todd's Green takes in several hotels. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. Rainfall across the South East, Todd's Green included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
For contractors at a college like North Hertfordshire College, under half a mile to the north-west of Todd's Green, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Redcoats Farmhouse Hotel, 0.8 miles west of Todd's Green, typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.

What affects the price in Todd's Green
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How much existing material needs removing
- Travel to remote or island sites
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
Before you send an enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- The site address and postcode
- The type of building and who uses it
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Todd's Green can form part of a wider programme across Hertfordshire.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
On site: what to expect
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. Rural sites near Todd's Green may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.
- First we review photographs, drawings or what we saw on a visit, and agree how each joint will be reached.
- Failed sealant is cut out along its full length.
- Both faces are cleaned and, where the product needs it, primed.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Preparing the site
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Doing it in-house

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Your questions answered
Is Horizon Technology Park, near Todd's Green, within your area?
Yes. We cover Todd's Green and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Horizon Technology Park. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as North Hertfordshire College?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Can you quote from photographs?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.
When to call us in Todd's Green
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, and the patch soon lifts.
Look out for the following:
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
When a school such as The John Henry Newman School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

Maintenance after handover
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
- Insist on a full cut-out when joints are renewed
- Share access with other external trades
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Keep high-pressure jets and strong chemicals away from new sealant, so brief your window cleaners.
Coordinate facade sealing with other external works. Sharing the access keeps the cost down and cuts time on site.
