What the job involves on each surface
Coping and flashing joints
Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. These joints take full exposure to weather and need a durable external sealant.
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. The sealant has to match the movement and the panel finish.
Facade sealing in West Green, done properly
We seal window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints, external facade joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Coping and flashing joints are included where sealant is the specified fix. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, cladding panel joints and window and door perimeters, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels and sealant pulling away from frames or panels. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in West Green is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Building sites in London tend to be tight: small compounds, delivery slots and shared hoists and scaffold. 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.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Cost factors for facade joints
What shapes the price:
- The total length or number of joints
- Working within restricted access windows
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- The product specified
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Details that help us quote
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Any specification or named product
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to phone 01277 525 020 or email us.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. In West Green, 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.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- We hand over with our 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in West Green
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, often turning up far from the joint. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so a proper job first time, with the old sealant fully removed, is worth it.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.

Looking after the joints
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Check the asbestos register before old mastic is disturbed
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
Record the sealant type and date on the building file. It helps when matching repairs or planning the next reseal across the elevation.
Building facade joints into a maintenance cycle avoids emergency repairs. Regular checks let you renew joints before water gets in, rather than waiting for a ceiling stain.

Facades, frames and programmes in West Green
There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of West Green. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, West Green included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Delivery slots and scarce storage shape how and when the mastic goes in.
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Crusader Industrial Park, 0.6 miles south of West Green, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. On a healthcare site such as St Ann's Hospital, which lies south of West Green, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.

What we are called out for in West Green
Cohesive failure, a split through the middle of the bead, points to an over-stretched joint. The joint may be too narrow, the bead too thin or the sealant the wrong movement class.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
For a contractor at a hotel such as Haringey Hotel, which lies south-west of West Green, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.
What your quote should include
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Proof of insurance
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
Questions we’re asked in West Green
Can work at a site such as American University in London fit around teaching?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. The building manager’s rules go straight into our method.
Do you seal facades in winter?
We can work through the year, but sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures within the product’s range. Frost and condensation on glass and steel are common on winter mornings, and we build that into the programme.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
In older non-domestic buildings, old sealant can contain asbestos. The dutyholder’s asbestos register should be checked first. Removal of asbestos isn’t something we do.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
