How we handle mastic sealing in Creekmouth
We work for building owners, landlords with commercial or block portfolios, managing agents and housing associations. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint and we quote and schedule each building in turn. If you are dealing with the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and movement joints with sealant missing, we can put it right, on communal entrances and stairwells, balcony and threshold joints and window and door perimeters on blocks alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Creekmouth it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
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.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Questions we’re asked in Creekmouth
Do you work in occupied care homes around Creekmouth?
Yes. We work around residents’ routines, a room or two at a time. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we will work to them.
Can you quote for a block close to Barking Riverside station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.
From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.
- We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
Before we start on site
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Point out any areas we must not close

Related advice
Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
Encourage occupiers to report water or draughts at frames. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first and the job grows.
Common problems we fix in Creekmouth
Buildings move with temperature and moisture, and the sealant takes up that movement. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits long before it should.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Barking Riverside station, 0.8 miles east of Creekmouth, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

- Who will actually carry out the work
How the job changes by surface
External movement joints
Joint size and product are matched to the expected movement, often around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises.
Communal areas
Joints at low level in communal areas take knocks from bins, bikes and buggies and tend to fail first.
What sets the cost
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- How accessible the joints are
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Working within restricted access windows
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
