How we handle mastic sealing in Hastigrow
Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you, giving you what you need to notify residents. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable while we work. Site teams most often ask us about the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and open joints in brickwork or panels, across window and door perimeters on blocks, external wall and movement joints and communal entrances and stairwells. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Hastigrow, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For buildings around Hastigrow, we group the work to keep travel and visits down. A list of addresses and photos lets us quote for them together.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Hastigrow
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The total length or number of joints
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Whether the work must be split into stages
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
What to include in your enquiry
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Access details, including height
- Any dates the work must fit around
Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? We will quote against your scope and drawings you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access, and we clear our waste as we work. Jobs near Hastigrow are often grouped with others in the same area. Tell us how flexible your dates are.

Advice
Commercial clients in Hastigrow
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Hastigrow can form part of a wider programme.
What sealant work can’t fix
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Where we work in Hastigrow

- Balcony and threshold joints

How the job changes by surface
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Tidy, sound joints keep them looking cared for.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Commercial occupiers typically stay open during the work, so we plan around them.
General trades versus a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Hastigrow: questions and answers
What documents will you need to give us for a job in Hastigrow?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Do you take on block-wide or estate-wide mastic work in Hastigrow?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Send the addresses and photos and we will give a fixed quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Can people stay in the building while you reseal?
The work is planned around occupiers. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, but the work normally takes a few days for most blocks, with larger programmes scheduled building by building. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
Do you work in Hastigrow?
Yes. Sites across Hastigrow are covered, and the same phone number covers every area.
