About our facade sealing in Wembley
Managing agents and owners in Wembley ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, cladding panel joints and stone and brick facade joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are old perimeter mastic that has dried out and perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Wembley? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Building sites in London tend to be tight: limited storage, booked deliveries and access shared with other trades. Mastic is usually one of the last trades on each elevation or floor, so we keep to the programme and the order of trades the site sets.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Wembley as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Why act early in Wembley
Topping up a failed joint usually buys very little time. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Why clients in Wembley choose us

Building and refurbishing in Wembley
There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of Wembley. Hotel extensions and refits usually have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight. Every borough of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and that applies to contractors’ vehicles on any job in Wembley. Deliveries are booked and storage is tight, so mastic materials come in as needed.
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like East Lane Business Park, 0.5 miles to the north-west of Wembley, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. Extensions at sites like Northwick Park Hospital (1.6 miles north-west of Wembley) typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.
Wembley is about 5 miles west of Hampstead, in Greater London. Across the HA9 postcode area, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. We work across 764 places in Greater London, from busy centres to rural villages. Our London page has more on work in that area (10 miles or so).
Postcode districts covered here: HA9, HA0, HA1 and NW9. Buildings on Market Way, London Road and Queenscourt are within our area for facade joints. You will find Wembley on or near the A404 and A4088. Nearby places we also cover include Wembley Park (1 mile east), Preston (1 mile north), Mapesbury (1 mile south-east), Tokyngton (1 mile south-east) and Stonebridge Park (1 mile south-east).

Cost factors for facade joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Which sealant the job calls for
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
What we need to price the job
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- The postcode of the building
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Movement beyond what any sealant can handle
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.

How a job runs
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself typically taking a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. In Wembley, most buildings stay in use during the work, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Faces are cleaned, primed where needed and backed.
- Sealant is gunned in and tooled hard onto both faces.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

Advice
When to call us in Wembley
Most facade joints fail through age and weathering. The bead hardens, chalks on the surface and loses the flexibility to follow the joint.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
- Water coming in around window frames
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
Work at a hotel such as OYO The Green Man Pub And Hotel, under half a mile south-east of Wembley, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.
What to look for in a quote
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- The named product and why it was chosen
General trades versus a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
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.
Common questions from Wembley clients
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. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Could you schedule work at a campus like Westminster University for the vacation?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we’ll plan the work around them. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Do you install glazing systems?
No. Glazing, windows and glass replacement aren’t part of our work. We seal the joints around them, including perimeters where frames meet the structure.
Which sealant do you use on facades?
The product follows the joint’s movement, the surfaces and the specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them, and we work to what is specified.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
