About our mastic sealing in Westfield
Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Every applicator holds a CSCS card, and the work is backed by public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Westfield carry our 12-month guarantee. If you are dealing with damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors and window mastic that has split and shrunk, we can put it right, on balcony and threshold joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Westfield it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around Westfield, outside mastic waits for dry weather and the right temperature. Programmes allow for the weather.

Questions about Westfield
Will you price a mastic programme across our Westfield portfolio?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. Send the addresses and photos and we will give a fixed quote.
Is Westfield too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Westfield is within our area. We work across every Scottish council area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
We do. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords, and we quote building by building or as a programme.
How soon can the area be used again?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
How do you handle work on occupied blocks?
Residents and tenants carry on as normal. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so it can be arranged.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

What we can’t put right
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Joints on a building age together so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
Surface by surface
Tenement and older buildings
Stone needs a neutral-cure product, so we pick a grade that won’t mark it.
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Housing associations and agents often manage many similar blocks. Each block is priced and scheduled in order.

- Joint width, depth and condition
- Distance, for remote addresses
