Mastic sealing in Maltman's Hill

Managing agents and housing associations normally need paperwork before anyone starts. 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, with public liability insurance. If you have cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Maltman's Hill start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.

Around smaller places like Maltman's Hill, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Questions about Maltman's Hill

Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Maltman's Hill?

Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Send the addresses and photos and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Is Maltman's Hill too small for you to travel to?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?

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.

What about access for upper-floor joints?

Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place, and we will tell you how we’d approach it.

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. Inside work is seldom held up.

When can the area be used after sealing?

We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.

How do you handle work on occupied blocks?

Occupiers stay in the building throughout. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so it can be arranged.

Why act early in Maltman's Hill

Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish. Converted and older buildings near places like Maltman's Hill tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

Why us?

  • Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product
  • Health and safety: CHAS accredited
  • Colour agreed before work starts

When something else is needed

We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
  • Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
  • Frames that are rotten, warped or broken

If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think.

What we seal

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

Common problems we fix in Maltman's Hill

Much failed sealant was laid on dirty, dusty or damp surfaces. Where the faces weren’t cleaned or primed as specified it comes away from one face.

Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:

  • Complaints coming in block by block
  • Water getting in round frames after rain
  • The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
  • Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant

With historic buildings such as Godinton House (to the east of Maltman's Hill) in the wider area, owners of older properties around Maltman's Hill should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.

What to look for in a quote

  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • Proof of insurance
  • Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?

Our contractor checklist

Should maintenance staff do it?

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Jobs in and around smaller places like Maltman's Hill are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  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. Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
  5. Joints are resealed and tooled.
  6. We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.

Getting the site ready

  • Agree which areas must stay open
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Let us know about inductions and permits

How the quote is worked out

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Quantities, in metres or numbers
  • Access and working height

We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

Details that help us quote

However big the job, these details speed things up:

  • When you need the work done
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them

Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
