Mastic sealing in Maida Vale, done properly
For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Every applicator holds a CSCS card and we hold public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Maida Vale carry our 12-month guarantee. Most enquiries involve complaints coming in block by block and estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out, across shopfronts below residential blocks, balcony and threshold joints and communal kitchens and washrooms. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Maida Vale, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
For managing agents in Maida Vale, resident access, notice periods and the building’s rules shape the job. Work is planned with the agent so residents get notice and access is arranged in advance.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Planned mastic for Maida Vale portfolios
In London, mastic work on a block goes through the managing agent or landlord, with notice to residents. We work to your notice and access plan.
Landlords with units on estates such as The Quadrant Business Centre (to the north-west of Maida Vale) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme. If you manage student housing near a university such as Imperial College London, which lies south-east of Maida Vale, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.

Signs you need mastic sealing in Maida Vale
Occasionally the substrate fails, not the sealant, such as crumbling render, brick arrises or frame edges. We will tell you if the joint edges need repairing before resealing.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
For agents with blocks near Kilburn High Road station, 0.7 miles to the north of Maida Vale, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.
What to look for in a quote
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Phasing around occupants
- Which sealant the job calls for
Pricing mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Any specification or named product
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Maida Vale. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too, and the complaints come with it. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so a proper job first time, with the old sealant fully removed, is worth it.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Why clients in Maida Vale choose us
- Specification-led, product-correct work
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available

Surface by surface
External movement joints
Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Perimeter joints on blocks are best done elevation by elevation or block by block. Access is agreed with you before the quote is fixed.
Common questions from Maida Vale clients
We manage a building near Kilburn High Road station. Can you help?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
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. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
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 hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
How long will the new sealant last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
Block-wide and estate programmes are common. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Our process
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. All of Greater London is in the ULEZ, and kerbside space in Maida Vale can be scarce. 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.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Before we start on site
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Send your site hours and access windows
Getting a fixed quote
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or email us.
