About our construction mastic in Honor Oak

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 brick and block movement joints, window and door perimeters and internal decorators’ caulk, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are a long mastic snag list close to completion and window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Honor Oak, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Construction in a London area such as Honor Oak means working on constrained sites: 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.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Honor Oak can form part of a wider programme.

We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

Maintenance after handover

To get the most from the new sealant:

  • Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
  • Plan external elevations with the weather in mind
  • Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
  • Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through

Record which products went where in the handover file. Future maintenance is easier when the products are known and avoids guesswork when joints are renewed. We can confirm the handover information you need when we quote.

Frames with gaps too wide for sealant need sorting before the mastic goes on. Filling a wide gap with sealant alone sets up a failure so packing or adjustment by the installer comes first. We raise them during our first walk of the area.

FAQs: Honor Oak

Can work at a site such as King's College London fit around teaching?

Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.

Can you work on a hospital site such as University Hospital Lewisham?

Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.

How long before the joints can be used?

Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.

Do you take on mastic snagging only?

Yes. Snag-only work is something we take on, cutting out damaged or poor joints and resealing them.

Is any job too small?

Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.

How many days will you need on site?

It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes anything from a day of snagging to several weeks of plot-by-plot sealing on a phased scheme. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.

Can you fit around our working hours?

We’re in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.

On site: what to expect

When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself typically taking a few days on a modest refurbishment and longer on multi-plot or multi-storey schemes. For a job in Honor Oak, access comes first. Give us the hours we can be on site and we’ll schedule to suit.

  1. We start with the drawings, specification and programme.
  2. Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
  3. The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
  4. Each area is sealed when it’s released.
  5. Every joint is cleaned, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
  6. After snagging, the work is handed over under our 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

How the quote is worked out

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • The total length or number of joints
  • Phasing around occupants

The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Details that help us quote

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
  • What the building is and how it’s used
  • Any specification or named product
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote that you can work with. If you have questions first, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

Why deal with it now?

A quick bead over a damaged joint can get an area past inspection. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to, and the defect comes back after handover. We cut out and redo the joint properly. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.

Pricing mastic packages depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

When something else is needed

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
  • Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
  • Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades

If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
