Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Horns Green

In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, balcony and threshold joints and external wall and movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out and water getting in round frames after rain. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Horns Green, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

In a London area such as Horns Green, 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.

Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

After the work

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
  • Protect low-level joints in entrances
  • Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first

Keep records of when each building was resealed. That makes future programmes easier to plan and shows what was done.

Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing.

Different surfaces, different methods

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Mixed-use buildings combine shops below with flats or offices above the programme has to suit everyone. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Communal areas

Low-level communal joints get damaged more than most and tend to fail first.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Questions about Horns Green

Do you cover business parks and estates near Horns Green, such as Biggin Hill Airport Trading Estate?

Yes, sites like Biggin Hill Airport Trading Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Horns Green. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Will you take on a block within reach of Knockholt station?

Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

Will residents or tenants be disturbed?

We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.

How do you reach windows on upper floors?

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.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, backed by public liability insurance.

How do you choose the sealant?

The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.

Quoting for work in Horns Green

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • How much there is to seal
  • Any access equipment needed
  • Travel to remote or island sites

Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

What we need to price the job

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:

  • Access details, including height
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? We’ll quote against your scope and drawings you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Our process

In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, and parking near a job is rarely simple. If there’s a loading bay, a car park or a permit we can use, tell us when you send details.

  1. Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
  2. We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
  3. Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
  4. We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
  5. Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Flag any permit to work we’ll need
  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

When something else is needed

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Substrate edges that need repairing first
  • Materials that need asbestos testing before work
  • Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter

If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Blocks and managed buildings in Horns Green

In London, mastic work on a block goes through the managing agent or landlord, with notice to residents. We fit the programme to your notice periods.

Buildings close to stations like Knockholt station (3.4 miles north-east of Horns Green) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound. If your remit includes a building such as Charles Darwin School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Older community buildings, Church of St Peter and St Paul among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.
