Mastic sealing for Temple Bar sites

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

What affects the price in Temple Bar

There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:

  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • The size and state of each joint
  • How much existing material needs removing

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Details that help us quote

The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:

  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Temple Bar

Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover, and it ages quietly: it sits round windows and doors, along external joints and through communal areas. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow, and occupiers start reporting it. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, shopfronts below residential blocks and external wall and movement joints, and what we’re called in for most is window mastic that has split and shrunk and draught complaints from residents or tenants. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Temple Bar first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

Planning mastic work on a London block means notices to residents, access to flats and agreed working areas. We work to the agent’s notice and access plan, so residents know what’s happening.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Temple Bar as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Property owners at sites such as Grand Vitesse Industrial Estate, 0.8 miles to the south-east of Temple Bar, can have mastic renewed between lettings. For agents with blocks near City Thameslink station, less than half a mile to the east of Temple Bar, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. Planning a London job such as one in Temple Bar starts with access: booked loading, goods lifts, the building’s permit system and a spot to keep materials. Give us the hours we can be on site and we will schedule to suit.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  2. The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
  3. Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
  4. Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
  5. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Advice

What the job involves on each surface

Estate-wide resealing programmes

Consistent products and colours across an estate make future maintenance simpler and easier to manage.

Planned maintenance

Resealing can be scheduled alongside other planned works, building by building.

After the work

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:

  • Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
  • Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
  • Keep a record of when each building was resealed
  • Prioritise elevations facing the weather

If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.

Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.

Questions we’re asked in Temple Bar

Can you work in a London building with booked loading and goods-lift slots?

Yes, most London buildings have access rules of some kind, and we plan around them. Say when the building is occupied and when it’s quiet, and we’ll plan accordingly. All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and our planning allows for it

Do you cover business parks and estates near Temple Bar, such as Grand Vitesse Industrial Estate?

Yes. We cover Temple Bar and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Grand Vitesse Industrial Estate. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.

What paperwork can you provide?

We’re CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.

Do you take on small jobs?

We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.

Can you quote from photos?

That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.

Can you seal joints high up on a block?

We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned, and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it.

How many days will you need on site?

That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit typically takes a few days for most blocks, with larger programmes scheduled building by building. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.

Leave it or put it right?

A bead run over old mastic can look like a repair. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts. In Temple Bar, each extra visit means more notices, permits and disruption, so a proper job first time, with the old sealant fully removed, is worth it.

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

What you get with us

  • Clear, fixed quotes
  • One number for every site we cover
  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product
  • Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators

When to call us in Temple Bar

What tends to prompt an enquiry:

  • Leaks at window and door perimeters
  • Failed external movement joints
  • Worn sealant at communal door frames
  • A mix of products and colours from past repairs
