Planned maintenance

How we handle mastic sealing in Strood Green
Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Every applicator holds a CSCS card and we hold public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Strood Green carry our 12-month guarantee. The enquiries we see most involve occupiers reporting cold air round windows and worn sealant at communal door frames, on balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Strood Green, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In and around smaller places like Strood Green, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

FAQs: Strood Green
Can work in a care setting near Strood Green go ahead while residents are there?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.
Can you quote for a block close to Betchworth station?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work, and we quote building by building or as a programme.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place, and we will tell you how we’d approach it.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How long will the new sealant 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.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. Jobs in and around smaller places like Strood Green are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Advice
Owners, agents and contractors
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
Why it’s worth doing now in Strood Green
Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes, which is harder to deal with than resealing. Halls, stores and units around places like Strood Green may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Why appoint us
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months

What we can’t put right
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly.

What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Access and working height
- Phasing around occupants
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Details that help us quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- When you need the work done
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
