Mastic sealing in Sands End, done properly

For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and the work is backed by public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Sands End carry our 12-month guarantee. The enquiries we see most involve complaints coming in block by block and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors, across communal kitchens and washrooms, external wall and movement joints and communal entrances and stairwells. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Sands End it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

London has a large stock of purpose-built blocks, mansion flats and converted buildings managed by agents and housing associations. Mastic around windows, doors and balconies tends to fail across a whole block at a similar time.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

When to bring in a specialist

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

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.

Surface by surface

Planned maintenance

Resealing can be scheduled alongside other planned works on a timetable you set.

External movement joints

Joint size and product are matched to the expected movement with the width-to-depth ratio set as the manufacturer advises.

Why it’s worth doing now in Sands End

Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. A planned programme treats each building once and is simpler to manage and budget. In Sands End, each extra visit means more notices, permits and disruption, so a proper job first time, with the old sealant fully removed, is worth it.

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

On site: what to expect

The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so we agree zones and timings with the building or facilities manager. Phased work keeps the rest of the building in use.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  2. The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
  3. We agree the programme and dates with you.
  4. Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
  5. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

Getting the site ready

Aftercare for building managers

After handover, a little attention goes a long way:

  • Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
  • Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
  • Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
  • Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames

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

Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings so spending is spread.

Work for main contractors and building owners

We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

Mastic sealing around Sands End: how the place shapes the job

In London, mastic work on a block goes through the managing agent or landlord, with notice to residents. We plan around the notices and access you arrange.

For owners of several units at places like Town Mead Business Centre, under half a mile south-west of Sands End, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. Older community buildings, St Mary's Church among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Imperial Wharf station, less than half a mile to the north-west of Sands End, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

Sands End is about 2 miles south-west of Brompton, in Greater London. Across the SW11 postcode area, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Our Greater London coverage takes in 764 places.

If you need mastic sealing in SW11, SW6 and SW10, the process matches everywhere else we work: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. For a building on York Road, Lots Road and Hyde Lane or nearby, we can quote for mastic joints.
