Surface by surface

External movement joints

Brickwork, blockwork and panel joints let a building move. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.

Planned maintenance

How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.

How we handle mastic sealing in Leaves Green

For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Our applicators are CSCS-carded and we hold public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Leaves Green carry our 12-month guarantee. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, balcony and threshold joints and external wall and movement joints, and what we’re called in for most is patchy repairs in mismatched sealant and no planned programme for sealant. For commercial sealant work in Leaves Green, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.

Planning mastic work on a London block means notices to residents, access to flats and agreed working areas. Work is planned with the agent so residents get notice and access is arranged in advance.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Looking after the joints

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:

  • Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
  • Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
  • Start inspections with the most exposed faces
  • Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings

Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Silicone typically can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it.

The longer failed joints are left, the more likely the substrate edges break up. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing and the job grows.

Leaves Green: questions and answers

Will you take on a block within reach of Hayes (Kent) station?

Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. We work to your notice and access arrangements.

Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?

Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for

Who decides which product is used?

The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.

What paperwork can you provide?

Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Can weather delay the job?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

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.

Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?

We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.

How a job runs

We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.

  1. A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
  2. You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
  3. Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
  4. Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
  5. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

Getting the site ready

  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Ask for a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

When it isn’t the sealant

A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
  • Misted or failed double-glazed units
  • Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter

If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Work for main contractors and building owners

If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

When to call us in Leaves Green

Occasionally the substrate fails, not the sealant for example where render or brick edges crumble. If the edges are unsound, we say so before quoting the sealing.

These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:

  • Communal area joints that look neglected
  • Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
  • Movement joints with sealant missing
  • Complaints coming in block by block

Schools and community buildings such as Meridian High School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building.
