Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

When to call us in Botany Bay

Dust is the enemy of adhesion on a construction site. Plaster dust, release agents, protective film residue and damp all stop sealant bonding so faces get cleaned, and primer goes on wherever the maker specifies, even on new work.

Clients typically get in touch after noticing something like this:

  • New external sealant already peeling away
  • Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
  • Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
  • Old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work

On a healthcare site such as Chase Farm Hospital (1.2 miles south-east of Botany Bay), new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.

Before you book anyone

  • Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
  • Their public liability cover
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed

How to choose a sealant contractor

Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Botany Bay

Since 2005 we’ve worked alongside main contractors, developers and fit-out firms. Quantities come off the drawings, the sequence is agreed with the site manager and the work follows the trades. For construction mastic on a scheme in Botany Bay, send drawings through our quote form, or phone or email us to talk it through. We work on cladding and panel joints, floor and skirting junctions and brick and block movement joints, and what we are called in for most is perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range and cracks opening in caulked internal joints. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Botany Bay it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Construction in a London area such as Botany Bay means working on constrained sites: small compounds, delivery slots and shared hoists and scaffold. We fit around the programme, sealing each elevation or floor as other trades hand over.

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Greater London. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will come back to it.

Doing it in-house

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Some joints are best left to specialists: 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.

For managing agents and facilities managers

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

Aftercare for building managers

After handover, a little attention goes a long way:

  • Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
  • Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
  • Note which sealant went where at handover
  • Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather

Tell the builders’ clean team which areas have new sealant. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead, so stick to soft cloths and gentle cleaners near sealant.

External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Holding off until conditions suit avoids callbacks, so we plan external work with that in mind.

Our process

We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.

  1. Drawings, the sealant specification and your programme come to us for pricing.
  2. You receive a fixed quote listing scope, products and phasing.
  3. Any site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) is confirmed with the quote.
  4. Work follows the programme, area by area, as rooms and elevations become ready.
  5. Each joint is prepared, backed to depth and sealed in the product the specification names.
  6. Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Advice

What we can’t put right

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:

  • Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
  • Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
  • Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct

Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.

Where we work in Botany Bay

Questions about Botany Bay

Can you work at a site such as Sopers Road Industrial Estate, by Botany Bay?

Yes. Our area takes in Botany Bay and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Sopers Road Industrial Estate included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Can you work on a hospital site such as Chase Farm Hospital?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.

How long will the new sealant last?

There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Do you use the sealant named in the specification?

The specified product is what goes in. If we think an alternative would suit better, we put it to you first.

Is colour matching possible?

Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.

Will you come and look before quoting?

Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.

Do you work in Botany Bay?

Yes. Botany Bay falls within our area, and the simplest way to start is to call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
