About our mastic sealing in Walliswood

Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. Dates, areas and the order of work are agreed with you in advance, giving you what you need to notify residents. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use while we work. Site teams most often ask us about no planned programme for sealant and damp patches beside frames, across shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Walliswood it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

For buildings around smaller places like Walliswood, we group work so one trip covers it. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Doing it in-house

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Cost factors for mastic joints

Before we quote, we look at:

  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Whether the work must be split into stages

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

Details that help us quote

However big the job, these details speed things up:

  • When you need the work done
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Clear photos of the problem areas
  • Where the site is, with the postcode

A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings if you’d rather talk the job through.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. For a building around Walliswood, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  2. You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
  3. Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
  4. Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
  5. Joints are resealed and tooled.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work

Request a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

What happens if it’s left?

Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. Damp patches, stained plaster and decorating claims can follow and those cost far more to put right. Older rural buildings around Walliswood move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

Pricing mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

Common problems we fix in Walliswood

Sunlight and weather break mastic down over time. It stiffens, stops stretching and cracks most of all on the sunniest and most exposed elevations.

Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:

  • A mix of products and colours from past repairs
  • Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
  • Draught complaints from residents or tenants
  • Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors

Older community buildings, Church of St John the Baptist among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

What your quote should include

  • Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Questions about Walliswood

Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Ockley station?

Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.

Is Walliswood too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Do you guarantee the mastic work?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.

How long will the new sealant last?

There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

How do you choose the sealant?

A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.

Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?

Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. We work through buildings in a planned order with dates agreed in advance.

Can you seal joints high up on a block?

We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we will confirm the approach in the quote.

Keeping the joints sound

Once the work is signed off, these steps help:

  • Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
  • Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
  • Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
  • Share the asbestos register when you send details

Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges and record where they are.

Joints on a building age together so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. Doing them together saves going back again and again.

Frames, entrances and external joints in Walliswood

Rainfall across the South East, Walliswood included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. Walliswood lies roughly 29 miles out from central London. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.

Landlords with units on estates such as Northlands Business Park (to the south-east of Walliswood) 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 Ockley station, 3.1 miles to the north-east of Walliswood, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.
