About our mastic sealing in Beddington
Treatment starts with a proper look: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in, with backing rod setting the depth where it’s needed. Most enquiries involve cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio, across window and door perimeters on blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and shopfronts below residential blocks. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Beddington first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For managing agents in Beddington, resident access, notice periods and the building’s rules shape the job. We work to the agent’s notice and access plan, so residents know what’s happening.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Common problems we fix in Beddington
Topping up old mastic is a common shortcut. New silicone has nothing to grip on old silicone and the repair soon fails.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
Buildings close to stations like Waddon station (to the east of Beddington) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- How they handle RAMS and site documents

Questions about Beddington
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Waddon station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Does your area include sites such as Anchor Business Park, near Beddington?
Yes. We cover Beddington and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Anchor Business Park. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
It depends on the building. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so the fixed quote reflects it.
Is Beddington in your area?
Yes. Beddington falls within our area, and you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over to get started.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
We plan around people living or working in the building. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told, and entrances stay in use.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Doing it in-house
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.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
From enquiry to sign-off
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Send your site hours and access windows
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Advice
Cost factors for mastic joints
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- How much there is to seal
- Joint width, depth and condition
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
How the job changes by surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Window and door perimeters are where most mastic failure shows. Old perimeter mastic is removed, the joint prepared and new sealant tooled in.
Tenement and older buildings
Older buildings, including Scotland’s sandstone tenements, have their own joint details. The material either side of the joint shapes the product choice.
