Leave it or put it right?
A bead run over old mastic can look like a repair. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. In Chingford Hatch, 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.
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

About our mastic sealing in Chingford Hatch
For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Every applicator holds a CSCS card, and the work is backed by public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Chingford Hatch carry our 12-month guarantee. If you are dealing with the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and draughts at frames across a block, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Chingford Hatch, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Planning mastic work on a London block means notices to residents, access to flats and agreed working areas. Work is planned with the agent so residents get notice and access is arranged in advance.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Greater London. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will come back to it.

General trades versus a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
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.
Common problems we fix in Chingford Hatch
Buildings move with temperature and moisture, 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.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- No planned programme for sealant
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
Trustees of buildings like All Saints Church of England Highams Park can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.
What to look for in a quote
- How they’ll work around occupants
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS

Your questions answered
Will you work in a care home in Chingford Hatch without moving residents out?
Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we will plan accordingly. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
How long do sealant joints 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.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. We work through buildings in a planned order so you can plan around it.
What will the job cost?
We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place, and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it.
