How we handle construction mastic in Colindale
Most of the packages we price run well beyond frames: external door and window perimeters, internal decorators’ caulk where specified, sanitary joints in bathrooms and washrooms, kitchen worktops and splashbacks, and snagging before handover. One contractor for all of it keeps the responsibility in one place, and one applicator team gives a consistent finish. If you’re dealing with window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection and cracks opening in caulked internal joints, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Searching for sealant specialists in Colindale? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Every London site, Colindale included, is inside the ULEZ, which applies to deliveries and contractors’ vans alike. Alongside that, sites usually need booked deliveries and a plan for where materials go.
Work we carry out in Greater London comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will arrange a return visit.

On site: what to expect
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we are in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. For a job in Colindale, access comes first: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- You receive a fixed quote listing scope, products and phasing.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- Before handover, snags are dealt with and the package is signed off under our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Mastic packages on Colindale sites
Plenty of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Colindale. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight. As part of Greater London, Colindale is inside the ULEZ, which applies to every van on site. Delivery slots and scarce storage shape how and when the mastic goes in.
New units and refits on sites such as Colindale Retail Park (to the west of Colindale) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. New wings at hospitals like BMI Hendon Hospital (1 mile east of Colindale) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. For contractors on a campus like Middlesex University (less than half a mile north-east of Colindale), facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates.

General trades versus a specialist
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Common questions from Colindale clients
Would you work within a site like BMI Hendon 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.
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. The building manager’s rules go straight into our method. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
What joints do you seal on a new build?
Inside and out: frame perimeters, movement joints, caulk where called for, sanitary and kitchens.
Do you take on mastic snagging only?
Yes. Snag-only work is something we take on.
Is the mastic package guaranteed?
Each package is signed off with a 12-month workmanship guarantee. The guarantee covers our work, not later damage by other trades.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Use the product the specification names
- Plan external elevations with the weather in mind
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
- Keep scrapers and abrasive pads off new beads
Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead, so stick to soft cloths and gentle cleaners near sealant.
Sanitary joints that fail early become defects soon after occupation. Water gets behind trays, vanity tops and panels. Getting the product and preparation right first time avoids that.
