Mastic sealing for Freezywater sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
On site: what to expect
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. In Freezywater, most buildings stay in use during the work, 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.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
What we need from you
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

Advice
About our mastic sealing in Freezywater
Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint and we quote and schedule each building in turn. The enquiries we see most involve worn sealant at communal door frames and mastic failing across several blocks on an estate, across external wall and movement joints, communal entrances and stairwells and communal kitchens and washrooms. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Freezywater tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In a London area such as Freezywater, many buildings are blocks of flats or mixed-use buildings run by managing agents, landlords or housing associations. Mastic around windows, doors and balconies tends to fail across a whole block at a similar time.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

What sets the cost
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Access and working height
- Location, for remote and island sites
- How much existing material needs removing
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- The product your specification calls for
- Access details, including height
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we’ll return a fixed quote you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
Why deal with it now?
Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee and one 12-month guarantee. In Freezywater, 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: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Why appoint us
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- Colour agreed before work starts
- One number for every site we cover
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
How the job changes by surface
External movement joints
Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Using the same products throughout keeps the estate consistent and easier to manage.
What we are called out for in Freezywater
Occasionally the substrate fails, not the sealant for example where render or brick edges crumble. If the edges are unsound, we say so before quoting the sealing.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
Site managers at schools like Keys Meadow Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- The named product and why it was chosen
