What happens if it’s left?
Looking at mastic during planned maintenance costs little. Leaving it until there’s a leak turns it into reactive work and less choice about when. In South Harefield, each extra visit means more notices, permits and disruption, so a proper job first time, with the old sealant fully removed, is worth it.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in South Harefield
Across South Harefield and the rest of Greater London, we work the same way: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. Addresses, photographs of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote, and site visits can be arranged. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, external wall and movement joints and communal kitchens and washrooms, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are leaks at window and door perimeters and estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in South Harefield from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
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.
Work we carry out in Greater London comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

What sealant work can’t fix
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll say what we think.

Quoting for work in South Harefield
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Any access equipment needed
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Location, for remote and island sites
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Sending details for a quote
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. It helps to include:
- Access details, including height
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Where the site is, with the postcode
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Keeping the joints sound
For the best life from the joints:
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. Early reports catch failures before damage spreads.
The longer failed joints are left, the more likely the substrate edges break up. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing.
Our process
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Planning a London job such as one in South Harefield starts with access: 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.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Tenement and older buildings
Stone needs a neutral-cure product and we choose accordingly.
Planned maintenance
Mastic wears out like any building component; how fast comes down to movement, weather, UV and the product. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.
South Harefield: questions and answers
Will you work in a care home in South Harefield without moving residents out?
Yes. We agree rooms and times with the manager and work a few areas at a time. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.
Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?
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
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.
How long will the new sealant last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
