Mastic sealing in Aldersbrook, done properly

Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover, and it ages quietly: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow along with complaints. If you have failed external movement joints and brittle perimeter mastic across a building, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Aldersbrook is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

London has a large stock of purpose-built blocks, mansion flats and converted buildings managed by agents and housing associations. Window and door perimeters, balcony joints and communal areas all have mastic that ages together across a building.

Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Questions about Aldersbrook

We manage a building near Wanstead Park station. Can you help?

Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?

Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them.

How do you reach windows on upper floors?

It depends on the building. We agree access with you at quote stage so the fixed quote reflects it.

How many days will you need on site?

It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

Is Aldersbrook in your area?

Yes. Aldersbrook falls within our area, and the simplest way to start is to ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Will residents or tenants be disturbed?

Residents and tenants carry on as normal. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so you can arrange it with occupiers.

What the job involves on each surface

Tenement and older buildings

Natural stone can be marked by the wrong sealant and we choose accordingly.

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Landlords with commercial portfolios have shopfronts, office entrances and external joints to look after. A planned programme suits multi-building portfolios.

On site: what to expect

Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  2. You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
  3. We agree the programme and dates with you.
  4. Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
  5. Joints are resealed and tooled.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

Getting the site ready

  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Leave it or put it right?

Getting scaffold, permits or access booked in Aldersbrook takes effort, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.

Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Aftercare for building managers

After handover, these steps help:

  • Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
  • Reduce knocks to communal area joints
  • Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
  • Include mastic in your cyclical inspections

If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over.

Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. Doing them together saves going back again and again.
