Doing it in-house
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Questions we’re asked in Broad Oak
Can the mastic package for our job in Broad Oak follow the site programme?
Yes. The mastic is planned around your key stages. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Is Broad Oak too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Broad Oak is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
What hours do you work?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
What does a mastic package normally include?
The scope comes from the specification and drawings, but frames, sanitary, kitchens, caulk where specified and snagging are typical.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Keeping the joints sound
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Use the product the specification names
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
Expect some settlement in the first months. The right product in each joint copes with that while rigid fillers and caulk can crack where movement is larger. If that happens, let us know.
Sanitary joints that fail early become defects soon after occupation. Leaks behind showers and basins damage finishes and floors. Proper preparation, with the right silicone first time, keeps it off the defects list.
Cost factors for mastic packages
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Working within restricted access windows
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- The site address and postcode
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- When you need the work done
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

Why act early in Broad Oak
Sealing over damaged or contaminated new joints might save a day, but it rarely lasts. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to, and the defect comes back after handover. We cut out and redo the joint properly. Around Broad Oak, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Why us?
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Commercial sealant work since 2005
- CHAS accredited contractor
Sites and facades in and around Broad Oak
Central London is about 48 miles from Broad Oak. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. Broad Oak is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
Historic houses such as Great Dixter, 3.3 miles north of Broad Oak, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

For contractors at a school such as Brede Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
