About our construction mastic in Donnybrook Quarter
Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. We are a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and every applicator holds a CSCS card. RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details can be confirmed with the quote if you tell us what you need. If you’re dealing with missed perimeter joints on a new elevation and early adhesion failures on new external joints, we can put it right. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Donnybrook Quarter, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Around Donnybrook Quarter, as across London, much of the work is refurbishing existing buildings as well as building new ones. Replacement windows, recladding and fit-outs leave perimeter and facade joints to seal, often next to people still using the building.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

What we are called out for in Donnybrook Quarter
On construction sites, joints normally fail early because of when they were sealed, not what was used. If sealant goes in before the last trades are through, it gets knocked, painted over or contaminated.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Oversized or tapered gaps around new frames
- Existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
Extensions at sites like Mile End Hospital, 1 mile to the south-west of Donnybrook Quarter, normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.
What your quote should include
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How the existing material will be dealt with

What else we do in Donnybrook Quarter
Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. In Donnybrook Quarter, most buildings stay in use during the work, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- We price from the drawings, specification and programme you send.
- A fixed quote sets out the scope, the products and the sequence.
- 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.
- Joints are cleaned, primed where the maker requires it, backed and sealed to the specification.
- We close out snagging and hand over with a 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The product your specification calls for
- Your programme or deadline
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
Questions about Donnybrook Quarter
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Mile End Hospital, something you do?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Can work at a site such as University of Staffordshire London Campus fit around teaching?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
Do you use the sealant named in the specification?
We use the product the specification names. Any suggested alternative is put to you before anything changes.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
- Keep product details for future maintenance
- Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
- Plan external elevations with the weather in mind
Our 12-month guarantee covers the workmanship from sign-off. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault, so protecting sealed areas matters.
Oversized gaps are a problem better caught early. Filling a wide gap with sealant alone sets up a failure. We raise them during our first walk of the area.
What we can’t put right
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Brick and block movement joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Window and door perimeters
