Cost factors for mastic joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Access and working height
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Sending details for a quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- The site address and postcode
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Specification clauses that apply
- Your programme or deadline
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Common questions from Bushwood Area of Leytonstone clients
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. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Does your area include sites such as Acacia Business Centre, near Bushwood Area of Leytonstone?
Yes, sites like Acacia Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Bushwood Area of Leytonstone. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
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.
Can weather delay the job?
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. Inside work is seldom held up.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Surface by surface
External movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel joints let a building move. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.
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.
From enquiry to sign-off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. 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.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Agree which areas must stay open
