About our mastic sealing in Burntcommon
Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover, and it ages quietly: it sits round windows and doors, along external joints and through communal areas. Once it cracks, hardens or comes away, draughts and water find a way in, and occupiers start reporting it. Site teams most often ask us about damp patches beside frames and estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out, across shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Burntcommon first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For owners with a single building near Burntcommon, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
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.

- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Broken glass or failed sealed units

Questions we’re asked in Burntcommon
Is Merrow Business Park, near Burntcommon, within your area?
Yes, sites like Merrow Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Burntcommon. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Burntcommon too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll price it properly.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
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 are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

What the job involves on each surface
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Using the same products throughout keeps the estate consistent.
Tenement and older buildings
Stone needs a neutral-cure product and we choose accordingly.
General trades versus a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
