Commercial mastic work in Charlton

Mastic Doctor has been sealing joints for businesses and contractors since 2005, and the documents buyers ask for are ready: CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, five million pounds of public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators. If your site needs RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, say so and we’ll confirm with the quote. If you have gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks and hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations, we can help, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Charlton tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

In an occupied building in Charlton, the job is planned so areas stay in use: washrooms in turn, floors in sections and entrances kept open.

Commercial sealant work around smaller places like Charlton tends to mean pubs and restaurants, halls, farm shops and offices in converted farm buildings. Each has kitchens, washrooms and frames whose joints need renewing in time.

We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Common questions from Charlton clients

Is Charlton too far out for you?

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

Which documents can you supply for work in Charlton?

We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details, with the quote. We hold £5m public liability insurance, are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and our applicators are CSCS-carded.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.

Can one contractor look after sealant on all our buildings?

Yes, we can. Send a list of addresses and what’s needed at each, and we will put together a fixed quote and a sensible order of work.

When can the area be used after sealing?

We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.

How long do sealant joints last?

There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?

Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators.

Maintenance after handover

For the best life from the joints:

  • Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
  • Keep a record of which joints were resealed and when
  • Brief cleaning contractors to avoid scourers and blades on sealant
  • Have extract fans checked so wet areas dry out

New joints need their full cure time before they take water, cleaning or traffic. That time depends on the product, the temperature and the joint depth, so we confirm it for each area at handover. Leaving the area closed until then keeps the bead neat.

Tenants and staff spot black or split sealant quickly, and in a hotel, office or shop it makes the whole space look neglected. Replacing it on a planned cycle keeps complaints down.

What we can’t put right

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:

  • Roof leaks that only look like a joint problem
  • Suspect materials that need testing and specialist removal
  • Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it

If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • External facade joints
  • Floor and threshold joints
  • Washrooms and tea points
  • Movement joints in walls and floors
  • Window and door perimeters
  • Kitchen worktops and splashbacks

Why act early in Charlton

Spot repairs have their place. If the rest of the bead is the same age and product, though, it’s normally close behind. Where it helps, we quote a patch and a full reseal side by side. Converted and older buildings near places like Charlton tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

A quote for sealant joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Our process

Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Smaller jobs around Charlton can be grouped with others nearby. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. Send details through our quote form, or ask for a site visit.
  2. We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
  3. Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
  4. Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
  5. Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
  6. We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.

What Charlton’s businesses ask us to seal

Charlton sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External joints still need dry faces and the right temperature, and damp or frosty mornings can hold work up. Central London is about 49 miles from Charlton. The commuter belt holds a great many offices, retail parks and business parks. Occupiers with several premises in the region tend to prefer one contractor and one point of contact.

A lasting commercial joint around Charlton begins with the old bead fully out and the faces clean and dry. A hotel such as Woodstock House Hotel, less than half a mile north of Charlton, shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar.
