Your questions answered

Is London Gateway Logistics Park, near Fobbing, within your area?

Yes. We cover Fobbing and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as London Gateway Logistics Park. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Is Fobbing too small for you to travel to?

Not at all. Fobbing is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Is coloured sealant weaker than white?

Colour is a choice within a product’s range, not a separate type of sealant. A properly prepared and tooled joint performs as the product intends in any colour.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.

When can you be on site?

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.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.

Will the colour fade over time?

Some change over time is normal. Exposure, product and colour all play a part, and we can’t promise a colour that never alters.

Coloured sealant for commercial buildings in Fobbing

Colour is often written into the specification, by RAL reference or by matching a sample. Standard sealant ranges cover many colours, so we check what the specified product is made in before we quote. An exact bespoke match can’t always be promised, so we talk you through the nearest colours. Most enquiries involve a run of joints in mismatched shades and standard-colour sealant spoiling a high-end finish, across office fit-out finishes, hotel bathrooms and public areas and natural stone and brick. For commercial sealant work in Fobbing, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.

A job in a smaller place like Fobbing is typically a single building. We plan the visit so everything on the list is done in one go, with the right products and colours on hand.

We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

What affects the price in Fobbing

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:

  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • The total length or number of joints
  • How much existing material needs removing
  • The size and state of each joint

Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

What we need to price the job

To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:

  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Where the site is, with the postcode
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older

A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos if you’d rather talk the job through.

When to call us in Fobbing

Colour-matched sealant is normally requested because a standard bead has spoiled the finish: white silicone against dark cladding, grey against timber or a yellowed bead on stone. Replacing it with a suitable colour restores the intended look.

It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:

  • Dirty, discoloured joints in public areas
  • White or grey sealant that clashes with the finish
  • Fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification
  • Untidy coloured beads with ragged edges

On estates like London Gateway Logistics Park, 1.8 miles south of Fobbing, the office and welfare end of each unit has its own sealant to maintain.

Comparing quotes

  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • How the existing material will be dealt with
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?

How a job runs

Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. For a building around Fobbing, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.

  1. The sealant type is chosen for the joint first, then the colour.
  2. Colour references, samples or photographs of the finish are checked against the product’s range.
  3. A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
  4. We take out the existing bead, clean the joints and fit backing.
  5. The coloured sealant is applied and tooled with clean, masked edges.

Before we start on site

  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance

Coloured sealant around Fobbing: what changes locally

With the shore within about 3 miles, Fobbing counts as a coastal location. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Sea-facing elevations are normally where failed joints show first. Central London is about 24 miles from Fobbing. The South East around the capital has large numbers of business parks, offices and retail centres, especially around the motorway corridors. Occupiers with several premises in the region tend to prefer one contractor and one point of contact.

A business with units at London Gateway Logistics Park and Pitsea Retail Park needn’t use two contractors for its sealant. Offices and shops close to stations such as Basildon station (to the north of Fobbing) tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours.

Fobbing is about 2 miles north-east of Stanford-le-Hope, in Thurrock. We send applicators to Fobbing for colour-matched joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area. 27 places across Thurrock fall within our area, Fobbing among them. Our London page has more on work in that area (24 miles or so).

We cover the SS17 postcode districts for colour-matched joints. We cover commercial and managed buildings on High Road, Patricia Drive and Greenacres Mews. We also cover Corringham (1 mile south), Vange (2 miles north-east), Stanford-le-Hope (2 miles south-west), Balstonia (2 miles south-west) and Lee Chapel (2 miles north-west). Further afield, our area takes in Grays (7 miles south-west), South Ockendon (8 miles west), Chadwell St Mary (6 miles south-west), Aveley (10 miles west), Tilbury (7 miles south-west) and South Stifford (8 miles south-west).

Around Fobbing

Different surfaces, different methods

Cladding panels

Where panels vary in colour, the joint colour is agreed for the whole elevation. A neutral tone from the range often works best, and a sample settles it.

Brick and masonry

Movement joints in brickwork are long and visible. The right colour keeps them discreet without affecting the joint’s performance.

Should maintenance staff do it?

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
