Looking after the joints
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.
Mastic sealing in Teddington, done properly
Older blocks and commercial buildings can have mastic that contains asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. Most enquiries involve movement joints with sealant missing and damp patches beside frames, on communal entrances and stairwells, balcony and threshold joints and external wall and movement joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Teddington tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Across Greater London, Teddington 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.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

How the job changes by surface
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Tidy, sound joints keep them looking cared for.
Estate-wide resealing programmes
A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down. Quotes can be per block or for the full programme.
Questions we’re asked in Teddington
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Teddington station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Do you work in London buildings with loading restrictions?
Yes. Booked loading bays, goods lifts and permit-to-work systems are normal for London jobs. Share the building’s contractor rules and we’ll work to them. We allow for the ULEZ, which covers every borough
Is Teddington in your area?
Yes. Teddington is in our area, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out 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 are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
For owners and agents in Teddington
For a London block, the agent or landlord normally handles notices to residents and access to flats. We plan around the notices and access you arrange.
Landlords with units on estates such as Newmans Shipyard & Business Park, 0.9 miles to the north of Teddington, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Teddington station (to the south of Teddington) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. Student accommodation around universities such as St Mary's University, 0.7 miles north of Teddington, is usually managed block by block, which suits a planned mastic programme.
Teddington is about 5 miles west of Wimbledon, in Greater London. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Teddington can call on us for mastic joints.

Cost factors for mastic joints
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Working within restricted access windows
- How accessible the joints are
- Removal of failed or old sealant
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What we need to price the job
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Access details, including height
- Any specification or named product
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Teddington
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

Leave it or put it right?
Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes and those cost far more to put right. Repeat call-outs disrupt occupied London buildings, so a proper job first time, with the old sealant fully removed, is worth it.
A quote for mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.
