Mastic sealing in Balls Green
Managing agents and housing associations typically need paperwork before anyone starts. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We’re a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and we carry public liability insurance. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, communal kitchens and washrooms and window and door perimeters on blocks, and what we’re called in for most is a mix of products and colours from past repairs and draught complaints from residents or tenants. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Balls Green is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller places like Balls Green, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Quoting for work in Balls Green
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- The total length or number of joints
- How much existing material needs removing
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Working within restricted access windows
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
What we need to price the job
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. It helps to include:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
When it isn’t the sealant
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will give you a straight answer.

What the job involves on each surface
Communal areas
Communal areas stay in use while we work. We work in sections so access is never blocked.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Commercial occupiers usually stay open during the work so the work is phased.
Blocks and managed buildings in Balls Green
At about 29 miles from central London, Balls Green is within reach of the capital. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.
For agents with blocks near Ashurst Kent station, which lies north of Balls Green, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. Older buildings near Balls Green, from historic houses such as Bassetts Manor, 2.2 miles north-west of Balls Green, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. Older community buildings, The church of St Michael and All Angels among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

For managing agents and facilities managers
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.

Your questions answered
Do you take on block-wide or estate-wide mastic work in Balls Green?
Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
We manage a building near Ashurst Kent station. Can you help?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
What paperwork can you provide?
Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
Do you cover Balls Green?
Yes. We cover Balls Green, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, 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. For a building around Balls Green, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
Before we start on site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Flag any permit to work we will need
- Arrange parking or a loading space
Ask for a quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Advice
Why act early in Balls Green
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows, and the complaints come with it. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Balls Green. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
