How the job changes by surface

Window and door perimeters on blocks

On most blocks, the frame-to-wall joint is where failure shows first. Old perimeter mastic is removed, the joint prepared and new sealant tooled in.

Estate-wide resealing programmes

An estate of similar buildings suits a rolling programme. We quote building by building and work through them in turn.

About our mastic sealing in Vernham Street

Different joints need different sealants. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many window perimeters and external movement joints, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable, and colours are confirmed for whichever product is used. If you are dealing with leaks at window and door perimeters and brittle perimeter mastic across a building, we can help, on window and door perimeters on blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and shopfronts below residential blocks alike. For commercial sealant work in Vernham Street, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.

Around smaller places like Vernham Street, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Common questions from Vernham Street clients

Is a smaller place like Vernham Street outside your area?

No. Places such as Vernham Street are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Vernham Street?

Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. Send the addresses and photos and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Do you work with property factors and landlords?

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.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There isn’t a single answer, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

How many days will you need on site?

The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

How do you handle work on occupied blocks?

The work is planned around occupiers. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told, and entrances stay in use.

Common problems we fix in Vernham Street

Much failed sealant was laid on dirty, dusty or damp surfaces. Without clean, sound faces and a primer where the product needs one it comes away from one face.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Failed external movement joints
  • Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
  • Leaks at window and door perimeters
  • Occupiers reporting cold air round windows

For a school such as Vernham Dean Gillum's Church of England Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.

What your quote should include

  • How the existing material will be dealt with
  • How joint depth will be controlled
  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
  • Proof of insurance

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

How a job runs

Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. If others near Vernham Street need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

Advice

What sealant work can’t fix

A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is one of these:

  • Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
  • Glazing that needs replacing
  • Leaks from above rather than through a joint

If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • External wall and movement joints
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • Communal entrances and stairwells

Why deal with it now?

A bead run over old mastic can look like a repair. It doesn’t bond and typically fails within a short time. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Vernham Street, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Owners, agents and contractors

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

Mastic sealing around Vernham Street: points for this area

Central London is about 62 miles from Vernham Street. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate. Rainfall across the South East, Vernham Street included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building usually need attention first.

Trustees of buildings like Church of St Mary can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list. With historic buildings such as Stargroves (to the north-east of Vernham Street) in the wider area, owners of older properties around Vernham Street should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.
