FAQs: Putney Vale
Can you cope with the access rules in a London building?
Yes. Inductions, permits and timed loading are routine for us in London. The building manager’s rules go straight into our method. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Do you cover business parks and estates near Putney Vale, such as Rainbow Industrial Estate?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Putney Vale, Rainbow Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you quote from photos?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit before quoting.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it and suspect material is tested first.
Do you cover Putney Vale?
Yes. We take on work across Putney Vale, with one number for every area we cover.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
How long does a typical visit take?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit typically takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
Mastic sealing in Putney Vale, done properly
Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. Dates, areas and the order of work are agreed with you in advance so you can let residents know what is happening. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable while we work. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, communal kitchens and washrooms and balcony and threshold joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and patchy repairs in mismatched sealant. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Putney Vale from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
London’s ULEZ covers every borough, and parking and loading rules vary street by street. For block-wide work, a place to park and store materials saves time on every visit.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Mastic sealing in Putney Vale: the local picture
There are two care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Putney Vale. Owners of care premises can bring window and door mastic into a phased programme planned around the home. London blocks come with residents to inform, access to agree and often a concierge or estate office to work with. We work to your notice and access plan.
For a school such as Hall School Wimbledon, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Trustees of buildings like St John the Baptist can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.

Why act early in Putney Vale
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish. Access in London is hard enough to arrange once, so while access is arranged it pays to renew all failing joints, not just the worst.
A quote for mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Different surfaces, different methods
Planned maintenance
Resealing can be scheduled alongside other planned works, building by building.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Landlords with commercial portfolios have shopfronts, office entrances and external joints to look after. A planned programme suits multi-building portfolios.
When to call us in Putney Vale
We often find joints filled solid with no backing rod so the mastic is bonded on three sides. That three-sided adhesion stops it stretching and splits as the building moves.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- No planned programme for sealant
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
For owners of several units at places like Rainbow Industrial Estate, 2 miles south of Putney Vale, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot.
Before you book anyone
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- The named product and why it was chosen
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
When to bring in a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Putney Vale
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
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.

On site: what to expect
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
