Why act early in Hurlingham
Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. A planned programme treats each building once and is simpler to manage and budget. In a London building, a failed joint rarely affects only one party: water travels through shared structures, and a small leak becomes a dispute between occupiers. Putting it right early is less disruptive than dealing with the consequences.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

About our mastic sealing in Hurlingham
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, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. If you are dealing with mastic failing across several blocks on an estate and leaks at window and door perimeters, we can help, whatever the surface. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Hurlingham first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Planning mastic work on a London block means notices to residents, access to flats and agreed working areas. We work to the agent’s notice and access plan, so residents know what’s happening.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.
Questions we are asked in Hurlingham
We manage a building near Imperial Wharf station. Can you help?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we’ll plan accordingly. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it
Do you work in Hurlingham?
Yes. Hurlingham is in our area, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned, and we will tell you how we’d approach it.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
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.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.

Signs you need mastic sealing in Hurlingham
Many failed joints were sealed without backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. It can’t stretch properly and splits as the building moves.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
Schools and community buildings such as Sulivan Primary School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building.
Questions to ask before you book
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
Building owners, agents and FMs in Hurlingham
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
