Mastic sealing near Holyfield
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
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. Halls, stores and units around places like Holyfield may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Cost factors for mastic joints
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- How much existing material needs removing
- How much there is to seal
- The size and state of each joint
- Whether the work must be split into stages
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Access details, including height
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Your programme or deadline
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Silicone normally can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and saves internal repairs.
How a job runs
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Jobs in and around smaller places like Holyfield are typically planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Make sure the joints can be reached

Advice
Surface by surface
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Tenants in commercial buildings need to keep trading so the work is phased.
Tenement and older buildings
Older mastic can contain asbestos, so we check the asbestos register or survey first. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Block-wide mastic in Holyfield
Holyfield sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. At about 15 miles from central London, Holyfield is within reach of the capital. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
Property owners at sites such as Highbridge Retail Park (1.7 miles south-west of Holyfield) can have mastic renewed between lettings. For a school such as Turnford School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Cheshunt station (1.3 miles west of Holyfield) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

FAQs: Holyfield
Do you cover business parks and estates near Holyfield, such as Highbridge Retail Park?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Holyfield, Highbridge Retail Park among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is Holyfield too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, backed by public liability insurance.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
It depends on the building. We agree access with you at quote stage so there are no surprises.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
What we can’t put right
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll say what we think before you book.
