General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Millbank
Perimeter sealing outside needs a dry joint and the right temperature. Each sealant has a temperature range, and damp, frost or condensation on frames stops work so it helps to sequence elevations with some flexibility. Internal areas can normally carry on while the outside waits. Site teams most often ask us about caulk cracking where joints are moving more than expected and existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing, on window and door perimeters, brick and block movement joints and internal decorators’ caulk. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Millbank, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Millbank must meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Alongside that, sites typically need booked deliveries and a plan for where materials go.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

After the work
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
- Don’t force external sealing on a damp or frosty day
- Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
A new structure shifts as it loses construction moisture. The right product in each joint copes with that while rigid fillers and caulk can crack where movement is larger. We can advise if a joint needs a different product.
A missed perimeter seal on one window can wet the reveal and the plaster inside. That typically means redoing finishes in a completed area, and a delay to handover. A check of every frame before decorators start is worth the time.
Signs you need construction mastic in Millbank
Swapping the specified sealant for a cheaper general-purpose product is a common cause of failure. A sealant that isn’t right for the substrate or the movement will fail ahead of time. We use what’s specified, and any substitute goes to you for acceptance.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work
- A long mastic snag list close to completion
- Missed perimeter joints on a new elevation
Work at a hotel such as St. Ermin's Hotel (under half a mile south-west of Millbank) tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.
What your quote should include
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- How they’ll work around occupants
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
Surface by surface
Snagging before handover
The last pass before handover is where mastic snags are cleared. Snags are cleared room by room and damaged joints are redone rather than patched.
Kitchens and utility areas
Worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks are sealed once the kitchen is fitted. The sealant is a kitchen-grade product.
Our process
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Most London premises stay occupied while we’re on site, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- We start with the drawings, specification and programme.
- Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
- The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
- Each area is sealed when it’s released.
- Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
- After snagging, the work is handed over under our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
