FAQs: Belmont
Can you work at a site such as Kimpton Industrial Park, by Belmont?
Yes. We cover Belmont and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Kimpton Industrial Park. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. Buildings are scheduled in turn so you can plan around it.
How do I request a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, phone 01277 525 020 or email us. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Mastic sealing in Belmont
There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. Window perimeters and external joints often take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, window and door perimeters on blocks and shopfronts below residential blocks, and the failures we are asked to look at most are movement joints with sealant missing and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors. For commercial sealant work in Belmont, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
In a London area such as Belmont, many buildings are blocks of flats or mixed-use buildings run by managing agents, landlords or housing associations. Window and door perimeters, balcony joints and communal areas all have mastic that ages together across a building.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- External wall and movement joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Shopfronts below residential blocks

- Balcony and threshold joints

Surface by surface
Tenement and older buildings
Older mastic can contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
External movement joints
Joint size and product are matched to the expected movement, often around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises.
Cost factors for mastic joints
These are the things that shape the price:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The product specified
- Access and working height
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Do you need mastic sealing in Belmont?
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and the sealant takes up that movement. A joint that was too narrow, too thin or the wrong product can’t cope and fails early.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
- Complaints coming in block by block
- Draughts at frames across a block
Student accommodation around universities such as University for the Creative Arts - Epsom (2.8 miles west of Belmont) is typically managed block by block, which suits a planned mastic programme.

How a job runs
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Most London premises stay occupied while we’re on site, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- 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 programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Let us know about inductions and permits

Advice
Why deal with it now?
Failed perimeter mastic lets cold air in around frames and the windows normally get the blame. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it when the frames themselves are sound. In Belmont, each extra visit means more notices, permits and disruption, so cutting the old sealant out fully and doing it right once is the better route.
A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.
