Mastic sealing in Walsworth, done properly
Before work starts, most agents and landlords want the documents in order. 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, with public liability insurance. If you have no planned programme for sealant and occupiers reporting cold air round windows, we can put it right, on communal entrances and stairwells, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints alike. Searching for sealant specialists in Walsworth? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Older buildings and conversions around places like Walsworth mix old masonry with newer frames. Perimeter joints need a sealant that suits both frame and masonry.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
Why act early in Walsworth
Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. A planned programme treats each building once, under a single quote and a single programme. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
What you get with us
- CHAS accredited contractor

What else we do in Walsworth
After the work
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.
Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before we move to the next. For a job in Walsworth, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Confirm the product named in the specification

How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
What do you charge?
Each job is quoted on its own details. To get one, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with a description of the work.
What paperwork can you provide?
Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Cost factors for mastic joints
What shapes the price:
- How accessible the joints are
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Phasing around occupants
- How much there is to seal
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What we need to price the job
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Access details, including height
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The site address and postcode
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
When to call us in Walsworth
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and every joint has to stretch and squeeze with them. A joint that was too narrow, too thin or the wrong product can’t cope long before it should.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Movement joints with sealant missing
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
Site managers at schools like Highover Junior Mixed and Infant School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.
What your quote should include
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- The named product and why it was chosen
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
