Construction mastic in Old Chiswick, done properly
A typical mastic package covers more than window perimeters: frame perimeters inside and out, caulking to trims and boards where the specification calls for it, sanitary silicone, kitchens, and the final snag list. Splitting those between trades often leaves gaps in responsibility. Most enquiries involve different trades sealing to different standards and oversized or tapered gaps around new frames, on floor and skirting junctions, brick and block movement joints and cladding and panel joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Old Chiswick first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Around Old Chiswick, 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, so tidy, well-planned work matters.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Honest limits
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Brick and block movement joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Internal decorators’ caulk
What we are called out for in Old Chiswick
A joint without backing rod or bond-breaker often fails early. Bonded to the base of the joint and both sides, sealant can’t stretch evenly.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- Mastic snags holding up handover
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
Work at a hotel such as Chiswick Lodge Hotel, 0.6 miles to the north of Old Chiswick, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.

What affects the price in Old Chiswick
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Access and working height
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Joint width, depth and condition
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Before you send an enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Your programme or deadline
- Any specification or named product
- What the building is and how it’s used
- The site address and postcode
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Different surfaces, different methods
Snagging before handover
Damaged, missed or untidy joints make up most snag lists. Snagging can be included or priced separately, depending on what suits the programme.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Fire-rated sealant is one type of fire-stopping product. Collars, wraps, batts and boards are specified for other services, and we’ll tell you if the detail calls for something else. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
On site: what to expect
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work usually takes whatever the programme allows, since the work follows the trades as areas are released, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Planning a London job such as one in Old Chiswick starts with access: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- We return a fixed quote that ties the mastic package to your programme.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- Work follows the programme, area by area, as rooms and elevations become ready.
- Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- We close out snagging and hand over with a 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Make sure the joints can be reached
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
