Mastic sealing in Liverton Street, done properly
On a residential block, the work happens around people’s lives. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you so you can let residents know what is happening. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable throughout. Site teams most often ask us about cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, across balcony and threshold joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and external wall and movement joints. Most enquiries from Liverton Street start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For owners with a single building near Liverton Street, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think.

Mastic sealing in Liverton Street: the local picture
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. 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. Central London is about 39 miles from Liverton Street. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property.
If you own or manage units on a site such as Roebuck Business Park, 1.7 miles to the north of Liverton Street, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Churches, halls and community buildings such as Church of St Nicholas are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time. If you look after a block within reach of Lenham station, 1.6 miles to the north-east of Liverton Street, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
Why it’s worth doing now in Liverton Street
Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. Converted and older buildings near places like Liverton Street tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Window and door perimeters are where most mastic failure shows. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.
Tenement and older buildings
Older mastic can contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Our process
Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. For a building around Liverton Street, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- 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.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
