Mastic sealing for businesses in Seven Sisters

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

How we handle mastic sealing in Seven Sisters

We diagnose before we prescribe: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. We work on external wall and movement joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells, and the failures we are asked to look at most are the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and patchy repairs in mismatched sealant. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Seven Sisters tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Planning mastic work on a London block means notices to residents, access to flats and agreed working areas. Work is planned with the agent so residents get notice and access is arranged in advance.

We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

When it isn’t the sealant

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:

  • Broken glass or failed sealed units
  • Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
  • Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first

If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • Communal entrances and stairwells
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • External wall and movement joints

What the job involves on each surface

Planned maintenance

We can work into your cyclical maintenance plan on a timetable you set.

Tenement and older buildings

Stone needs a neutral-cure product and we choose accordingly.

How a job runs

We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For a job in Seven Sisters, access comes first: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Give us the hours we can be on site and we’ll schedule to suit.

  1. First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
  2. The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
  3. Failed mastic is removed completely.
  4. The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
  5. We finish each building before moving to the next.

What we need from you

  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.

Advice

Quoting for work in Seven Sisters

To price the job, we consider:

  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first

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 and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Details that help us quote

To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:

  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Access details, including height

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Why act early in Seven Sisters

Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish. Getting scaffold, permits or access booked in Seven Sisters takes effort, so it makes sense to deal with every failing joint while access is in place.

Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Why us?

  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
  • Health and safety: CHAS accredited
  • 12-month guarantee on workmanship

Take a look at our cost guide or our accreditations.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. 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.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

FAQs: Seven Sisters

Can you work in a care home near Seven Sisters with residents in?

Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.

Does your area include sites such as Tottenham Hale Retail Park, near Seven Sisters?

Yes, sites like Tottenham Hale Retail Park are within our area, along with the rest of Seven Sisters. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?

Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it.

How do I request a quote?

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photos or drawings if you have them.

Do you need to see the site first?

That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
