About our construction mastic in Tottenham Green
Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old, and on older buildings we ask for the asbestos survey before disturbing anything. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. If you have a long mastic snag list close to completion and frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Tottenham Green first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Tottenham Green 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.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. In Tottenham Green, most buildings stay in use during the work, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
- 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.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

What we’re called out for in Tottenham Green
Value-engineered products sometimes end up in the wrong joints. A general-purpose silicone on a facade or a caulk in a wet area won’t perform like the specified product. We stick to the specified product, or put any alternative to you first.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- New external sealant already peeling away
- Old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work
For contractors at a college like Capital City College (less than half a mile north of Tottenham Green), perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays.

- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- How joint depth will be controlled
Common questions from Tottenham Green clients
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
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.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Tottenham Green, such as Tottenham Hale Retail Park?
Yes. Our area takes in Tottenham Green and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Tottenham Hale Retail Park included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Is the mastic package guaranteed?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee from sign-off. The guarantee covers our work, not later damage by other trades.
Can you seal external joints in wet or cold weather?
External sealing goes ahead only with a dry joint inside the product’s temperature range. Sealing in poor conditions risks adhesion failure.
When is resealing likely to be due?
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.

When to bring in a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.

How the job changes by surface
Internal decorators’ caulk
Acrylic caulk fills internal gaps around trims, boards and frames ahead of decorating. It’s for gaps that stay still and get painted, and we use a flexible sealant where there’s movement.
Snagging before handover
The last pass before handover is where mastic snags are cleared. Snags are cleared room by room.
Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
Tell the builders’ clean team which areas have new sealant. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean so keep them off the joints.
Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. A planned close-out through each area as it completes keeps the list short and keeps handover on track.
New build and refits around Tottenham Green
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, Tottenham Green included, so site vehicles need to meet its standards or pay the daily charge. Delivery slots and scarce storage shape how and when the mastic goes in. Tottenham Green has a good number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as United Lodge Hotel, 1.3 miles south-west of Tottenham Green, normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. When units on a site such as Tottenham Hale Retail Park (to the east of Tottenham Green) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.

- How much there is to seal
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
