What we can’t put right
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How we handle mastic sealing in St George's Fields
Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Every applicator holds a CSCS card and we hold public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Most enquiries involve open joints in brickwork or panels and brittle perimeter mastic across a building, on communal kitchens and washrooms, window and door perimeters on blocks and communal entrances and stairwells. A single leaking joint is often how a building in St George's Fields first comes to us: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Across Greater London, St George's Fields included, the ULEZ applies, and parking and loading rules differ from street to 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. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Commercial clients in St George's Fields
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
What we’re called out for in St George's Fields
Communal entrances and corridors see a lot of wear, and low-level joints get damaged. Regular cleaning wears them further.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
For owners of several units at places like Grand Vitesse Industrial Estate, less than half a mile north of St George's Fields, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Their public liability cover
- How they’ll work around occupants
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed

What else we do in St George's Fields
Leave it or put it right?
Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows and occupiers notice. 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.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
Why choose Mastic Doctor in St George's Fields
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available

- Over 20 years of commercial sealing

Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
Keep records of when each building was resealed. It helps plan the next round and gives you a history.
One failed perimeter typically means others on the same building are close, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
Your questions answered
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. Send the building rules and access times with your enquiry. The ULEZ covers the whole of Greater London, which we allow for
Will you work in a care home in St George's Fields without moving residents out?
Yes. We work around residents’ routines, a room or two at a time. We follow the home’s own procedures throughout.
Do you take on small jobs?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
How do you choose the sealant?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
Do you cover St George's Fields?
Yes. St George's Fields is in our area and the rest of Greater London, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
How a job runs
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Most London premises stay occupied while we are on site, so zones and timings are agreed with whoever manages the building. Areas are handed back as each section is finished.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- 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.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
Ask for a quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

For owners and agents in St George's Fields
St George's Fields has two care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. For owners and operators of care buildings, window perimeters and external joints are best renewed in planned phases around residents. In London, mastic work on a block goes through the managing agent or landlord, with notice to residents. We fit the programme to your notice periods.
If your remit includes a building such as St George's Cathedral Catholic Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Elephant & Castle station (to the south-east of St George's Fields) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.
