Mastic sealing in Southall
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
Keep records of when each building was resealed. It helps plan the next round and shows what was done.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. We can quote buildings in priority order so spending is spread.
About our mastic sealing in Southall
Managing agents and housing associations usually need paperwork before anyone starts. For documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance. If you have failed external movement joints and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors, we can help, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Southall tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
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.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Work for main contractors and building owners
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Questions about Southall
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes, we plan every London job around the building’s own access rules. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Can you work at a site such as Middlesex Business Centre, by Southall?
Yes, sites like Middlesex Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Southall. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work usually takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Do you do block-wide mastic programmes?
Block-wide and estate programmes are common. You get a fixed quote per building or for the whole job.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit.
Our process
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. For a job in Southall, access comes first. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
- Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
Before we start on site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
Quotes
Every quote starts with the facts: 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.

How the job changes by surface
External movement joints
Movement joints are cleaned out, backed with rod and resealed with a sealant of the right movement class.
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Fresh joints make shared areas look looked after.
Honest limits
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
Cost factors for mastic joints
What shapes the price:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Any access equipment needed
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Details that help us quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- The site address and postcode
- Any specification or named product
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
