When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- External wall and movement joints
How a job runs
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Several jobs near North Holmwood can be grouped on one trip. Tell us your site hours and we’ll plan around them.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Move anything stored against the joints

Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.

Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Log resealing dates block by block
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
The longer failed joints are left, the more likely the substrate edges break up. Then the edges may need repairing first.
Mastic sealing around North Holmwood: how the place shapes the job
At about 22 miles from central London, North Holmwood is within reach of the capital. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations; their frame mastic often ages block-wide. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.
If you’re responsible for a building such as Church of St John the Evangelist, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property. If you own or manage units on a site such as Glebelands Centre Business Park, 1.4 miles to the north-west of North Holmwood, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. If your remit includes a building such as St John's Church of England Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

What happens if it’s left?
Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish and one 12-month guarantee. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.
What you get with us
- Health and safety: CHAS accredited
- Old sealant cut out, never sealed over
- Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
- Over 20 years of commercial sealing

When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Questions about North Holmwood
Is Glebelands Centre Business Park, near North Holmwood, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in North Holmwood and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Glebelands Centre Business Park included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is North Holmwood too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. North Holmwood is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
We can. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn, and the programme can start with the worst.
How long does a typical visit take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
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.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
