About our mastic sealing in Northbrook

Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Every applicator holds a CSCS card and we hold public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. If you’re dealing with damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors and leaks at window and door perimeters, we can put it right, on external wall and movement joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and balcony and threshold joints alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Northbrook is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Around smaller places like Northbrook, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Your questions answered

Is Northbrook too far out for you?

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.

Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Micheldever station?

Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Do you guarantee the mastic work?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.

Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?

Yes. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.

Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?

Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.

What about access for upper-floor joints?

We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned and we will confirm the approach in the quote.

When can the area be used after sealing?

We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.

Our process

Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. For work around Northbrook, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
  2. We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
  3. Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

Before we start on site

  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Confirm the product named in the specification

Advice

Different surfaces, different methods

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.

Tenement and older buildings

Older mastic can contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.

Owners, agents and contractors

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.

Block-wide mastic in Northbrook

At about 56 miles from central London, Northbrook is within reach of the capital. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations. Northbrook sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building usually need attention first.

Schools and community buildings such as Micheldever CofE Primary School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building. If you are responsible for a building such as Church of St Mary, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Micheldever station (2.1 miles north of Northbrook) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

Northbrook is about 7 miles north of Winchester, in Hampshire. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Northbrook use us for work on mastic joints, as part of our coverage of Hampshire.

Why act early in Northbrook

Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. Planned resealing covers a whole building or estate in one go and is simpler to manage and budget. Around Northbrook, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Why us?

  • Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
  • CSCS-carded applicators
  • Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
  • One number for every site we cover

Maintenance after handover

Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:

  • Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
  • Group repairs into a planned programme
  • Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
  • Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front

Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.

Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first and the job grows.

Doing it in-house

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.

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.
