How a job runs
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. 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 walk the site or review drawings to understand the package.
- You receive a fixed quote covering scope, products and sequence.
- 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.
- Any frame gaps or issues outside our scope are flagged to the site team.
- Final snagging is completed and the 12-month guarantee applies.

About our construction mastic in Thornton Heath
Mastic follows everyone else, which means it absorbs every delay upstream. We agree a sequence at the start and adjust it as the site manager releases areas, so applicators arrive when areas are genuinely ready. Sealing too early only means coming back once others have damaged it. If you have mastic snags holding up handover and window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection, we can help, on cladding and panel joints, internal decorators’ caulk and window and door perimeters alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Thornton Heath tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Building sites in London tend to be tight: small compounds, delivery slots and shared hoists and scaffold. We fit around the programme, sealing each elevation or floor as other trades hand over.
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.

Doing it in-house
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Honest limits
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Fire-stopping design or sign-off (that’s for the designer, fire engineer and building control)
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work in Thornton Heath
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding and panel joints

What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- How accessible the joints are
- Joint width, depth and condition
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Details that help us quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Your programme or deadline
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Specification clauses that apply
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 email us.

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Thornton Heath can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Greater London.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
- Put any product change through the designer first
- Flag uneven or tapered frame gaps early
- Don’t force external sealing on a damp or frosty day
Tell the builders’ clean team which areas have new sealant. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead.
Frames with gaps too wide for sealant need sorting before the mastic goes on. Sealant stretched over an oversized gap won’t last so packing or adjustment by the installer comes first. We flag them as soon as we see them.
Your questions answered
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Croydon University Hospital, something you do?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
What hours do you work?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Do you cover Thornton Heath?
Yes. We cover Thornton Heath, and the simplest way to start is to call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
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 about RAMS and site documents?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Construction mastic in Thornton Heath: the local picture
A good number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Thornton Heath. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Thornton Heath included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Add booked deliveries and tight storage, and the mastic package needs planning with the site team.
For contractors at a college like Spurgeon's College, 1 mile to the north-east of Thornton Heath, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as The Crystal Lodge Hotel, which lies south-east of Thornton Heath, normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. Hospital estates such as Croydon University Hospital (0.7 miles south of Thornton Heath) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
