About our mastic sealing in Bexley Riverside
Managing agents and housing associations usually need paperwork before anyone starts. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and we carry public liability insurance. If you’re dealing with water getting in round frames after rain and estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out, we can put it right, whatever the surface. For commercial sealant work in Bexley Riverside, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Across Greater London, Bexley Riverside included, the ULEZ applies, and parking and loading rules differ from street to street. For block-wide work, a place to park and store materials saves time on every visit.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: 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.

Owners, agents and contractors
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Cost factors for mastic joints
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Location, for remote and island sites
- 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.
What we need to price the job
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- When you need the work done
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Aftercare for building managers
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.
Common questions from Bexley Riverside clients
Is Madford Trade Park, near Bexley Riverside, within your area?
Yes, sites like Madford Trade Park are within our area, along with the rest of Bexley Riverside. To start, just call 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, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we will plan accordingly. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
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.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned and we will confirm the approach in the quote.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
We do. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work, and we quote building by building or as a programme.
How long before the joints can be used?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.

From enquiry to sign-off
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Planning a London job such as one in Bexley Riverside starts with access. Give us the hours we can be on site and we will schedule to suit.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- 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.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
Getting the site ready
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
