Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Fullwell Cross
Across Fullwell Cross and the rest of Greater London, we work the same way: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. Addresses, photos of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote or we can visit. If you have brittle perimeter mastic across a building and movement joints with sealant missing, we can help, whatever the surface. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Fullwell Cross it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In a London area such as Fullwell Cross, 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, which is why block-wide programmes make sense.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What else we do in Fullwell Cross
Mastic sealing in Fullwell Cross: the local picture
There are three care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Fullwell Cross. For owners and operators of care buildings, window perimeters and external joints are best renewed in planned phases around residents. For a London block, the agent or landlord typically handles notices to residents and access to flats. We plan around the notices and access you arrange.
Owners of student blocks near University of Portsmouth Walthamstow Campus (4.4 miles west of Fullwell Cross) can schedule frame and external mastic for the summer vacation. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Seven Kings station (2.3 miles south of Fullwell Cross) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

When to call us in Fullwell Cross
The edges of the material itself sometimes break away for example where render or brick edges crumble. We’ll tell you if the joint edges need repairing before resealing.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- No planned programme for sealant
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
Trustees of buildings like St Francis of Assisi can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.
What your quote should include
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
Aftercare for building managers
For the best life from the joints:
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Silicone typically can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it unless told otherwise.
Joints on a building age together so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
How a job runs
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed 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.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Let us know about inductions and permits
Getting a fixed quote
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.

What shapes the price:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The product specified
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Any access equipment needed

Common questions from Fullwell Cross clients
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
Can you quote for a block close to Seven Kings station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Is Fullwell Cross in your area?
Yes. Fullwell Cross is in our area. To discuss a job, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
When is resealing likely to be due?
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.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
