FAQs: Stanhope
Is Stanhope too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Does your area include sites such as Ellingham Industrial Estate, near Stanhope?
Yes. Our area takes in Stanhope and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Ellingham Industrial Estate included. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
Will you quote for a small job?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
It depends on the building. We agree access with you at quote stage so the fixed quote reflects it.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Mastic sealing in Stanhope, done properly
Managing agents and housing associations normally need paperwork before anyone starts. 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. The enquiries we see most involve the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and occupiers reporting cold air round windows, across communal entrances and stairwells, balcony and threshold joints and window and door perimeters on blocks. Searching for sealant specialists in Stanhope? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
In a smaller place such as Stanhope, landlords and agents tend to look after small blocks, flats over shops, sheltered housing and commercial units. Their window perimeters and external joints need renewing as the mastic ages.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Different surfaces, different methods
External movement joints
External movement joints take up expansion and contraction. Failed sealant in a movement joint lets water in.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Mixed-use buildings combine shops below with flats or offices above, so phasing has to suit both. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Stanhope need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.

When to bring in a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Cost factors for mastic joints
These are the things that shape the price:
- How much existing material needs removing
- The size and state of each joint
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Phasing around occupants
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
