About our mastic sealing in Harrow on the Hill

Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you so you can let residents know what is happening. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use while we work. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are open joints in brickwork or panels and cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Harrow on the Hill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

For managing agents in Harrow on the Hill, resident access, notice periods and the building’s rules shape the job. We work to the agent’s notice and access plan, so residents know what’s happening.

Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Leave it or put it right?

Open external joints let water into walls and around frames. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes and those cost far more to put right. Failed sealant in a building in Harrow on the Hill can quickly affect neighbours, tenants or the floor below. Dealing with it early is simpler for everyone.

The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

Why appoint us

  • One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
  • Public liability insurance in place
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job
  • CHAS accredited

Advice

Commercial clients in Harrow on the Hill

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.

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.

What sealant work can’t fix

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:

  • Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
  • Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
  • Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter

If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Aftercare for building managers

Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:

  • Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
  • Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
  • Group repairs into a planned programme
  • Share your contractor requirements early

Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over.

Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. We can quote buildings in priority order so spending is spread.

Questions we are asked in Harrow on the Hill

Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?

Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them.

We manage a building near Sudbury Hill Harrow station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.

Can you seal joints high up on a block?

Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we will confirm the approach in the quote.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

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.

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 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.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.

Cost factors for mastic joints

We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:

  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • The product specified
  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits

Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

What to include in your enquiry

There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • Any specification or named product
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us.
