Construction mastic for Point Clear sites

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

Our process

In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. If others near Point Clear need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
  2. We take off quantities and return a fixed quote.
  3. The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
  4. Plots or floors are sealed as they’re handed over.
  5. Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
  6. After snagging, the work is handed over under our 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work

Ask for a quote

The quickest route to a quote is a few photographs and the site postcode. Send them through the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to discuss it first.

Construction mastic in Point Clear

Mastic is often where a new building first shows its quality to the client. Untidy or missed joints are among the commonest snag items and clearing them late eats into the handover window. We seal so the snag list stays short, area by area through the programme. If you have internal caulk splitting as the building dries out and different trades sealing to different standards, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Point Clear first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.

For a site near Point Clear, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Point Clear: questions and answers

Is Point Clear too small for you to travel to?

No. Places such as Point Clear are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can the mastic package for our job in Point Clear follow the site programme?

Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we will plan the mastic to suit the stages. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.

Do you guarantee new-build sealant work?

The work is guaranteed for 12 months. Protecting sealed areas from following trades helps avoid damage.

What about RAMS and site documents?

Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.

What joints do you seal on a new build?

Window and door perimeters, internal decorators’ caulk where specified, sanitary joints, kitchens, movement joints and snagging. We price to the specification and drawings.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

Can you fit around our programme?

We follow the trades through the building. Areas are sealed as they’re released by the site team and we tell you if something stops an area being sealed.

Cost factors for mastic packages

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:

  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • How accessible the joints are

Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

What to include in your enquiry

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:

  • Where the site is, with the postcode
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours

Need a figure for a tender or a budget? We will quote against your scope and drawings that you can work with. For a chat about it beforehand, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Different surfaces, different methods

External facade and movement joints

External movement joints often need primer, depending on the substrate. We prime where the manufacturer specifies, and seal only with a dry joint inside the product’s temperature range.

Window and door perimeters

Gaps around frames have to be within the sealant’s range. We check them during the first walk-round and flag any that need packing or adjusting before sealing starts.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

Owners, agents and contractors

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, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

Common problems we fix in Point Clear

A new building moves while it dries and settles. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.

Things that normally lead to an enquiry:

  • Early adhesion failures on new external joints
  • A long mastic snag list close to completion
  • A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
  • Missed perimeter joints on a new elevation

For contractors at a school such as Colne Community School and College, sealing has to be finished before term starts.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Building and refurbishing in Point Clear

Point Clear is within about 1 mile of the coast. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Central London is about 53 miles from Point Clear. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.

For a contractor at a hotel such as The Anchor Hotel (0.8 miles north-west of Point Clear), the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.
