About our construction mastic in Gunnersbury
Getting a subcontractor through site induction should be simple. We’re 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. The enquiries we see most involve sealant knocked or painted over by other trades and inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot, on internal decorators’ caulk, cladding and panel joints and brick and block movement joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Gunnersbury? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
A great deal of London construction is refurbishment of occupied or part-occupied buildings, alongside new blocks. New frames, overcladding and fit-outs all end in perimeter and facade joints, frequently with occupants close by, so tidy, well-planned work matters.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

How a job runs
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Gunnersbury can be scarce. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.
- We start with the drawings, specification and programme.
- We take off quantities and return a fixed quote.
- We agree with the site team which areas come first.
- Each area is sealed when it’s released.
- Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
- Snags are cleared and the package signed off with our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Cost factors for mastic packages
Before we quote, we look at:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- How much existing material needs removing
- The size and state of each joint
- Access and working height
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Before you send an enquiry
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:
- The product your specification calls for
- The postcode of the building
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

What we are called out for in Gunnersbury
On a live site, contamination is the biggest threat to a new joint. Dust, film adhesive, damp and grease on the joint faces prevent a proper bond, so preparation matters as much here as on a reseal.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- Oversized or tapered gaps around new frames
- New external sealant already peeling away
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
On a campus such as Richmond American University London, which lies east of Gunnersbury, new teaching buildings and residences are usually built and refurbished around the academic year.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- How they’ll work around occupants
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
FAQs: Gunnersbury
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as Richmond American University London?
Yes. Education sites normally want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Is a hospital such as Clayponds Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Gunnersbury in your area?
Yes. Sites across Gunnersbury are covered, with one number for every area we cover.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
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.
Facades, frames and programmes in Gunnersbury
Every borough of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and that applies to contractors’ vehicles on any job in Gunnersbury. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team. There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of Gunnersbury. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
New wings at hospitals like Clayponds Hospital (to the west of Gunnersbury) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. When a college such as Ealing and West London College (1.8 miles north-west of Gunnersbury) builds or refurbishes, the mastic package normally has to fit around students and staff.

When something else is needed
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t

What the job involves on each surface
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Fire-rated sealant forms part of some packages, installed to the product’s tested detail where it is specified. Fire stopping design belongs to the designer and building control.
Snagging before handover
Damaged, missed or untidy joints make up most snag lists. We price snagging as part of the package or as a separate visit.
