How we handle construction mastic in Royal Docks
The specification and the programme set the job rather than whatever product is to hand. If a product is named, that’s what goes in; any alternative we suggest is put to you before anything changes. Joint widths, backing, primers and tooling follow the manufacturer’s guidance so the detail on the drawing is what ends up on site. 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 sealant knocked or painted over by other trades and old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Royal Docks tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Royal Docks must meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Add booked delivery slots and limited storage, and a London mastic package needs planning before the first bead.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Why act early in Royal Docks
Refurbishments sometimes budget for new windows when the frames are sound and only the seal has failed. Sound frames often need only a new perimeter seal. We’ll say so if a frame itself is the problem. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so a proper job first time, with the old sealant fully removed, is worth it.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

From enquiry to sign-off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself normally takes a day or two on a small fit-out and several weeks on a large multi-storey package, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Planning a London job such as one in Royal Docks starts with access. Give us the hours we can be on site and we will schedule to suit.
- We walk the site or review drawings to understand the package.
- A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
- Site paperwork is confirmed and our CSCS-carded applicators are inducted.
- We seal plot by plot or floor by floor in line with the programme.
- Problems we find, such as oversized gaps, are raised right away.
- The package is closed out, snags cleared and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Can you fit around our programme?
Working to your programme, we seal each area as it’s handed over. The sequence is settled with your site team and adjusted as things change.
Do you use the sealant named in the specification?
We use the product the specification names. Any suggested alternative is put to you before anything changes.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
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.
