How we handle mastic sealing in Little Chelsea
We work for building owners, landlords with commercial or block portfolios, managing agents and housing associations. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. Most enquiries involve water getting in round frames after rain and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, across external wall and movement joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and balcony and threshold joints. Whoever orders the work in Little Chelsea, the brief is typically the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
London’s ULEZ covers every borough, and parking and loading rules vary street by street. For block-wide work, a place to park and store materials saves time on every visit.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

On site: what to expect
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. 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.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Getting the site ready
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions

What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- The type of building and who uses it
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Little Chelsea. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Tenants in commercial buildings need to keep trading so the work is phased.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
On most blocks, the frame-to-wall joint is where failure shows first. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.
Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. It helps plan the next round and gives you a history.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and saves internal repairs.
Doing it in-house
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
