For managing agents and facilities managers
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
Construction mastic in Gidea Park
The specification and the programme set the job. Where the specification names a product, we use it, and if an alternative is proposed, it goes to you for acceptance first. Backing, primer and depth follow what the sealant maker sets out so the detail on the drawing is what ends up on site. We work on sanitary and kitchen joints, cladding and panel joints and brick and block movement joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing and mastic snags holding up handover. For commercial sealant work in Gidea Park, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Building sites in London tend to be tight: limited storage, booked deliveries and access shared with other trades. We fit around the programme, sealing each elevation or floor as other trades hand over.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

What else we do in Gidea Park
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
- Keep product details for future maintenance
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
Any damage after we’ve finished should go on the snag list straight away. Snags can be picked up in a planned close-out visit.
Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. A planned close-out through each area as it completes keeps the list short and keeps handover on track.
How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The product specified
- Phasing around occupants
- How much there is to seal
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
What to include in your enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- When you need the work done
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- The site address and postcode
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
When to bring in a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
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.
Why deal with it now?
A cheaper sealant can look like an easy saving on a large package. The saving is small next to the cost of callbacks and defects. Where an alternative is genuinely suitable, we will say so. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so cutting the old sealant out fully and doing it right once is the better route.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.

Common questions from Gidea Park clients
Can work at a site such as New City College fit around teaching?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Can the building stay open while you work?
In most cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
Construction mastic around Gidea Park: points for this area
As part of Greater London, Gidea Park is inside the ULEZ, which applies to every van on site. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team. There are a number of hotels within about 2 miles of Gidea Park. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Victoria Hospital, which lies south-west of Gidea Park, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. Further education sites such as New City College (to the south-east of Gidea Park) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break. Units on estates such as Rom Valley Retail Park (1.8 miles south-west of Gidea Park) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
Gidea Park is about 1 mile north-east of Romford, in Greater London. Commercial clients in Gidea Park use us for work on mastic packages, as part of our coverage of Greater London. Our Greater London coverage takes in 764 places. There’s a separate page for London, about 14 miles away.
