How we handle construction mastic in Charlton
Getting a subcontractor through site induction should be simple. We are a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and every applicator holds a CSCS card, with public liability insurance in place. RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details can be confirmed with the quote if you tell us what you need. We work on floor and skirting junctions, cladding and panel joints and internal decorators’ caulk, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are oversized or tapered gaps around new frames and a long mastic snag list close to completion. Whoever orders the work in Charlton, the brief is usually the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Around smaller places like Charlton, building work typically means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Why deal with it now?
Sealing over damaged or contaminated new joints might save a day, but it won’t last. Sealant can’t grip a contaminated or existing bead, and the defect comes back after handover. Damaged joints are removed and resealed from clean faces. Halls, stores and units around places like Charlton may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- The product specified
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Working within restricted access windows
A quote for mastic packages depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you are working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The postcode of the building
- The type of building and who uses it
- Any dates the work must fit around
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Glazing units that are cracked or misted
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we have sealed
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What we are called out for in Charlton
Wide, tapered or inconsistent gaps around frames are a common problem. Every product has limits on how wide a joint it can bridge, so gaps outside that range need sorting by the installer first. We flag them early rather than filling them with sealant that won’t last.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Early adhesion failures on new external joints
- Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover
With historic properties like Hampton Court Palace (to the east of Charlton) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
Questions to ask before you book
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Proof of insurance
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
Keeping the joints sound
After handover, these steps help:
- Put any product change through the designer first
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Don’t force external sealing on a damp or frosty day
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
Any damage after we have finished should go on the snag list right away. We can return to clear snags before handover.
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.
New build and refits around Charlton
Charlton lies roughly 16 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Rainfall across the South East, Charlton included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
When a college such as Brooklands College - Ashford Campus, 2.3 miles north-west of Charlton, builds or refurbishes, the mastic package usually has to fit around students and staff. For contractors at a school such as Littleton CofE Infant School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
