Construction mastic in Brightwell Baldwin, done properly

The programme rarely stands still, so the mastic package has to flex with it. The sequence is set with the site team and updated as plots or floors are handed over and we don’t seal before other trades have finished in an area. That keeps the work right first time and saves rework. We work on brick and block movement joints, internal decorators’ caulk and cladding and panel joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work and sanitary sealant damaged by following trades. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Brightwell Baldwin is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

For a site near Brightwell Baldwin, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.

The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Why act early in Brightwell Baldwin

Clearing snags piecemeal is tempting when handover is close. A planned sweep of each plot or floor catches the lot in one go and saves applicators coming back again and again. Snagging can be priced as a separate stage. Older rural buildings around Brightwell Baldwin move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

Why appoint us

  • Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
  • Over 20 years of commercial sealing
  • Fully insured, including public liability cover
  • CSCS-carded applicators

Take a look at what affects the cost and our accreditations and insurance.

Maintenance after handover

For the best life from the joints:

  • Note which sealant went where at handover
  • Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
  • Stick to the specified sealant rather than a generic substitute
  • Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through

Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean, so stick to soft cloths and gentle cleaners near sealant.

External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Waiting for a dry joint and the right temperature is better than redoing work, so we plan external work with that in mind.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

What the job involves on each surface

Snagging before handover

The last pass before handover is where mastic snags are cleared. We can work through the snag list area by area.

Window and door perimeters

Gaps around frames have to be within the sealant’s range. We check them during the first walk-round and flag any that need packing or adjusting.

How a job runs

A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself typically takes as long as the agreed sequence needs, which comes down to joint lengths, access and handover dates, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go.

Common problems we fix in Brightwell Baldwin

Frames installed with uneven gaps make perimeter sealing harder. Every product has limits on how wide a joint it can bridge and gaps beyond it need packing or adjusting by the frame installer. We flag them early rather than filling them with sealant that won’t last.

What tends to prompt an enquiry:

  • Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
  • Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
  • Mastic snags holding up handover
  • Different trades sealing to different standards

For contractors at a school such as Icknield Community College, sealing has to be finished before term starts.

What your quote should include

  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • Proof of insurance
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
