Mastic sealing for Gold Street sites

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

Mastic sealing in Gold Street

Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. Many prefer a planned programme to one-off visits and we quote and schedule each building in turn. Most enquiries involve cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and leaks at window and door perimeters, on communal kitchens and washrooms, shopfronts below residential blocks and window and door perimeters on blocks. Most enquiries from Gold Street start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.

Rural conversions near places like Gold Street often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Work for main contractors and building owners

If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Gold Street can sit alongside others in a wider programme.

Do you need mastic sealing in Gold Street?

Occasionally the substrate fails, not the sealant for instance where render or brick edges crumble. If the edges are unsound, we say so before quoting the sealing.

What tends to prompt an enquiry:

  • Draughts at frames across a block
  • Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
  • Leaks at window and door perimeters
  • Open joints in brickwork or panels

If you’re responsible for a building such as St Mary's Room, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
  • Their approach to joint depth and backing
  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Site managers at schools like Cobham Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works. For owners of several units at places like Bowes Industrial Centre, 2.2 miles south-west of Gold Street, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot.

Gold Street: questions and answers

Is a smaller place like Gold Street outside your area?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

We manage a building near Sole Street station. Can you help?

Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. We work to your notice and access arrangements.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee and we hold public liability insurance.

Can people stay in the building while you reseal?

The work is planned around occupiers. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told and communal access is kept open.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

What paperwork can you provide?

Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the 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 will tell you how we’d approach it.

What the job involves on each surface

Tenement and older buildings

Some old mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.

Planned maintenance

Mastic wears out like any building component; how fast comes down to movement, weather, UV and the product. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.

Leave it or put it right?

Looking at mastic during planned maintenance costs little. Leaving it until there’s a leak turns it into reactive work with less control over timing. Converted and older buildings near places like Gold Street tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

A quote for mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.
