Why it’s worth doing now in Manor House
Some quotes just add sealant over the old bead. A bead laid on top of the failed one neither grips nor flexes properly and soon lets go. We cut out the old seal and prepare the faces every time. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

How the job changes by surface
Joints between different materials
Different materials meeting at a joint rarely move in step. We choose a sealant that grips both faces priming where the maker calls for it.
Brickwork and blockwork joints
A brick movement joint full of old mortar or debris can’t close. We clear the joint fully before sealing, and tell you if the joint looks too narrow for the movement.
On site: what to expect
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Planning a London job such as one in Manor House starts with access. Give us the hours we can be on site and we will schedule to suit.
- Photos, joint lengths and drawings come to us, or we visit.
- We compare each joint’s width with the movement and the sealant’s capability.
- Old sealant and debris are cut out of every joint.
- Edges are checked, and we tell you if any need repairing before sealing.
- The right sealant goes in at the right depth, bonded to the two sides only.
- Areas reopen once cured, and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice
Questions we’re asked in Manor House
Can you work at a site such as Arena Shopping Park, by Manor House?
Yes, sites like Arena Shopping Park are within our area, along with the rest of Manor House. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them. We allow for the ULEZ, which covers every borough
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Is colour matching possible?
In many cases, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
What’s the difference between an expansion joint and a movement joint?
They’re closely related. Both let materials grow and shrink with temperature, moisture and load, and the seal across it keeps water and debris out.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
Quoting for work in Manor House
Before we quote, we look at:
- Any access equipment needed
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What we need to price the job
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Access details, including height
- Your programme or deadline
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
