Construction mastic for Oval sites
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Construction mastic in Oval
Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. We’re a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and every applicator holds a CSCS card. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We work on floor and skirting junctions, cladding and panel joints and sanitary and kitchen joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are different trades sealing to different standards and window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection. For commercial sealant work in Oval, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
Construction in a London area such as Oval means working on constrained sites: limited storage, booked deliveries and access shared with other trades. Mastic is normally one of the last trades on each elevation or floor, so we keep to the programme and the order of trades the site sets.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

How the quote is worked out
To price the job, we consider:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Any access equipment needed
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Whether the work must be split into stages
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
Before you send an enquiry
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- The site address and postcode
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Specification clauses that apply
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Oval
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.
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.
Facades, frames and programmes in Oval
Oval has a good number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up. As part of Greater London, Oval 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.
Hotels like Belgrave Hotel London (under half a mile east of Oval) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor. For contractors at a college like Chelsea College of Art & Design, which lies north-west of Oval, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays. University estates such as University of the Arts London, 1.4 miles west of Oval, tend to have a rolling programme of new buildings and refurbishments, each with window perimeters and facade joints to seal.
Oval is about 1 mile north of Stockwell, in Greater London. We cover Oval and the rest of Greater London, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. We work across 764 places in Greater London, from busy centres to rural villages.
We cover the SW8, SW9 and SW1P postcode districts. Buildings on Lett Road, Rita Road and Wyvil Road are within our area for mastic packages. Oval sits on or close to the A203 and A3204. Sites close to Oval are covered too, including Kennington (1 mile north), South Lambeth (1 mile south-west), Little Portugal (1 mile south), North Brixton (1 mile south-east) and Vauxhall (1 mile north). Further afield, our area takes in City of Westminster (3 miles north-west), Marylebone (3 miles north-west), Kensington (4 miles west), St Pancras (3 miles north), Shoreditch (4 miles north-east) and Walthamstow (8 miles north-east).

Different surfaces, different methods
External facade and movement joints
Many facade substrates need a primer before sealing. Primer goes on where the sealant maker calls for it.
Kitchens and utility areas
Commercial kitchens often need hygienic or food-safe sealants. We follow the specification and seal to a smooth, cleanable finish.
On site: what to expect
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically 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. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. Let us know about any on-site parking or loading arrangements when you send the job details.
- Drawings, the sealant specification and your programme come to us for pricing.
- 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.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready

Related advice
Your questions answered
Do you take on jobs in Oval where loading and access are tightly controlled?
Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we’ll plan accordingly. We allow for the ULEZ, which covers every borough
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of the Arts London?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
Do you work in Oval?
Yes. Oval is in our area. To discuss a job, call 01277 525 020 or email us.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Do you take on mastic snagging only?
Yes. We can work through a mastic snag list area by area before handover, cutting out damaged or poor joints and resealing them.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
What we can’t put right
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Glazing units that are cracked or misted
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Brick and block movement joints
