About our construction mastic in Willian
On refurbishments, the mastic package normally includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Existing joints have to be stripped back to sound faces, because fresh sealant can’t key into cured silicone. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. We work on sanitary and kitchen joints, internal decorators’ caulk and brick and block movement joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are different trades sealing to different standards and oversized or tapered gaps around new frames. Most enquiries from Willian start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In the countryside around places like Willian, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is normally what’s needed.
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.

When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas

Questions about Willian
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Pinehill Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can you work at a site such as Letchworth Gateway Retail Park, by Willian?
Yes. Our area takes in Willian and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Letchworth Gateway Retail Park included. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
What guarantee comes with a mastic package?
It carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. We are also fully insured for public liability.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership. Tell us what site paperwork you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
How long before the joints can be used?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.
Leave it or put it right?
When a package runs over budget, downgrading the product is a common first thought. A failed joint in the defects period costs far more than the product difference, especially externally. We price the specified product and will tell you plainly where an alternative would or wouldn’t work. Older rural buildings around Willian move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Surface by surface
External facade and movement joints
Many facade substrates need a primer before sealing. Primer goes on where the sealant maker calls for it, 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. Gaps outside the product’s range are raised with the site team before sealing starts.
