When to bring in a specialist

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.

Privett: questions and answers
Is Privett too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you take on block-wide or estate-wide mastic work in Privett?
Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
What paperwork can you provide?
We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
How do you handle work on occupied blocks?
The work is planned around occupiers. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.
Why it’s worth doing now in Privett
Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It doesn’t bond and usually fails within a short time. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. Converted and older buildings near places like Privett tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Common problems we fix in Privett
UV and rain age external sealant. The surface chalks, the body stiffens and cracks appear most of all on the sunniest and most exposed elevations.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Complaints coming in block by block
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
If you’re responsible for a building such as Holy Trinity Church, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.
