How we handle mastic sealing in London
On a residential block, the work happens around people’s lives. Dates, areas and the order of work are agreed with you in advance, giving you what you need to notify residents. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable throughout. If you are dealing with cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and draught complaints from residents or tenants, we can help, on window and door perimeters on blocks, balcony and threshold joints and external wall and movement joints alike. Most enquiries from London start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Owners with several buildings in and around London often find window and door mastic failing on all of them at a similar age. One contractor, one programme and one fixed quote can cover the lot.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Questions about London
Is Southwark Bridge Business Centre, near London, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in London and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Southwark Bridge Business Centre included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Elephant & Castle station?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Do you cover London?
Yes. Sites across London are covered.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
We do. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
How soon can the area be used again?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit normally takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Should maintenance staff do it?
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.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
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.

How a job runs
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work typically takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Jobs in a large place like London are often on business parks, retail sites or campuses with their own sign-in and permit rules. Tell us about inductions, permits and site hours so the plan fits.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Preparing the site

- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
Ask for a quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Advice
For owners and agents in London
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first. London has two care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Frame mastic on care buildings is best renewed elevation by elevation, with the manager deciding timings.
For owners of several units at places like Southwark Bridge Business Centre, under half a mile to the north of London, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. Churches, halls and community buildings such as St George the Martyr are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.
London is in Greater London. Anywhere in CR0, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Our Greater London coverage takes in 764 places.
We take on mastic joints across the CR0, E14, CR4 and SW11 postcode area, for business premises of every kind. If your site is on Walcot Square, Surrey Square and Sutherland Square or close by, send details and we will quote for mastic joints. Being close to the A2 and A10, London is straightforward for us to reach. If your building is just outside London, we cover Walworth (1 mile south), Bermondsey (1 mile east), Camberwell (2 miles south), South Bermondsey (2 miles south-east) and Surrey Canal (2 miles south-east). Nearby towns on our patch include City of Westminster (3 miles west), Marylebone (3 miles north-west), Kensington (5 miles west), Walthamstow (7 miles north-east), Hampstead (5 miles north-west) and Ruislip (14 miles west).

When to call us in London
Topping up old mastic is a common shortcut. New silicone has nothing to grip on old silicone and the repair soon fails.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
Buildings close to stations like Elephant & Castle station, under half a mile to the south-west of London, are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- The named product and why it was chosen
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
Keeping the joints sound
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away, and note the building and elevation.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.
