Mastic sealing for businesses in Fir Toll

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

What happens if it’s left?

Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows and occupiers notice. Around Fir Toll, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.

There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Why clients in Fir Toll choose us

  • Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance
  • Fully insured, including public liability cover
  • Failed material removed, not covered up
  • Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators

How we handle mastic sealing in Fir Toll

For blocks and buildings in Fir Toll and across Kent, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Addresses, photos of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote or we can visit. The enquiries we see most involve occupiers reporting cold air round windows and the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio, on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and balcony and threshold joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Fir Toll tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

In and around smaller places like Fir Toll, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.

Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Fir Toll

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, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.

FAQs: Fir Toll

Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Fir Toll?

Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.

Is a smaller place like Fir Toll outside your area?

Not at all. Fir Toll is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.

Can people stay in the building while you reseal?

Residents and tenants carry on as normal. If any flats or units need access, we’ll tell you in advance so you can arrange it with occupiers.

How long will the new sealant last?

There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.

Does the weather affect the work?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.

Honest limits

Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
  • Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
  • Masonry that has broken away beside the joint

Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What we seal

  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • External wall and movement joints
  • Communal entrances and stairwells

Looking after buildings in and around Fir Toll

At about 43 miles from central London, Fir Toll is within reach of the capital. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres. Rainfall across the South East, Fir Toll included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are usually where frame mastic ages first.

For a school such as Pluckley Church of England Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Older buildings near Fir Toll, from historic houses such as Godinton House (to the east of Fir Toll) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. Trustees of buildings like Church of St Nicholas can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.

Keeping the joints sound

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Keep a record of when each building was resealed
  • Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
  • Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
  • Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front

Keep records of when each building was resealed. That makes future programmes easier to plan and gives you a history.

Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.

Cost factors for mastic joints

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:

  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Access and working height
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Quantities, in metres or numbers

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Before you send an enquiry

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • The type of building and who uses it

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

From enquiry to sign-off

When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work usually takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. Smaller jobs around Fir Toll can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
  2. You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
  3. The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
  4. Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

Before we start on site

  • Confirm the product named in the specification
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Point out any areas we must not close
