Common questions from Milebush clients
We manage a building near Marden station. Can you help?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.
Is a smaller place like Milebush outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
Block-wide and estate programmes are common. You get a fixed quote per building or for the whole job.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

What the job involves on each surface
Planned maintenance
How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.
Tenement and older buildings
Older mastic can contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. Suspect material is tested before work continues.
Our process
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work typically takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Rural sites near Milebush may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
- A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Advice
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Keeping the joints sound
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
Keep records of when each building was resealed. That makes future programmes easier to plan and shows what was done.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down the list.
What we are called out for in Milebush
The edges of the material itself sometimes break away for instance where render or brick edges crumble. We’ll tell you if the joint edges need repairing before resealing.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
If you look after a block within reach of Marden station, which lies south-west of Milebush, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.

- Who will actually carry out the work
