Why it’s worth doing now in Strawberry Hill
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Leaks travel along the structure, so the real damage is often some distance away. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so cutting the old sealant out fully and doing it right once is the better route.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Why us?
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- CSCS-carded applicators
- Colour agreed before work starts

Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Strawberry Hill
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day, so they don’t last indefinitely. How long a joint lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure, the product and how well it was installed. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. Most enquiries involve damp patches beside frames after rain and previous reseals run over old sealant, on coping and flashing joints, window and door perimeters and stone and brick facade joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Strawberry Hill? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, so contractors’ vehicles on a job in Strawberry Hill 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: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
- Clear debris that holds water against joints
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Keep high-pressure jets and strong chemicals away from new sealant, so brief your window cleaners.
Use each reseal to correct the joint: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. A well-designed joint lasts longer than a like-for-like copy of a failed one.
Common questions from Strawberry Hill clients
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as St Mary's University?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
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. The building manager’s rules go straight into our method. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
How long before the joints can be used?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. We are CHAS accredited, we’re a Constructionline member and we use CSCS-carded applicators.
From enquiry to sign-off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work usually takes longer on a full elevation than on a handful of window perimeters, and it always depends on dry weather, and we clear our waste as we work. Planning a London job such as one in Strawberry Hill starts with access. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- The new sealant goes in and is tooled firmly onto both faces.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
What we need from you
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

When to call us in Strawberry Hill
Overlaying old sealant is a common shortcut that fails quickly. Cured silicone won’t accept a new silicone bead.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away
- Cold air coming in at window perimeters
Projects at colleges like Richmond-upon-Thames College, 1 mile north of Strawberry Hill, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- What site paperwork they can supply
What the job involves on each surface
Window and door perimeters
Frame materials vary, and so does the preparation. We clean and prime to the sealant maker’s guidance for each surface.
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
These frame-to-structure joints take a lot of movement and weather. We cut them out, prepare both faces and reseal to the specification.
