How commercial sealant contractors works in MK15

Mastic Doctor has been sealing joints for businesses and contractors since 2005, and the documents buyers ask for are ready: we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Let us know which site documents you need and they’ll be confirmed with the quote. We work on external facade joints, washrooms and tea points and kitchen worktops and splashbacks, and what we are called in for most is damp patches where an external joint has failed and black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off.

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us.

  1. We begin with whatever information you have, whether that’s photos, a drawing or a list of locations, or we arrange a site visit.
  2. Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
  3. Site hours, access windows and the order of areas are agreed before we start.
  4. We strip the failed bead and prepare both faces of the joint.
  5. The depth is set, primer is used where the maker calls for it, and the fresh bead is applied and tooled.
  6. We walk the completed areas with you and sign them off under the 12-month guarantee.

How we quote

The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

What’s near Willen

We work on buildings around Campbell Park, Ousedale School and Gyosei International School UK, among other places. Nearby too are Church of St Mary Magdalene (under half a mile south-west) and Willen Primary School (0.5 miles west). For rail, the closest station is Milton Keynes Central station, about 3.1 miles south-west. A little further out are Milton Keynes University Hospital (2.6 miles south) and Midsummer Place (2 miles south-west). For a walk, there’s Willen Lake and Little Linford Wood.

Commercial premises across MK15

From Middleton, Broughton and Oakgrove outwards, MK15 has a broad spread of commercial premises: shops, offices, hotels, restaurants and units. We cover the whole area, so occupiers with several sites can use one contractor and one point of contact.

We work across Greater London and the South East counties, and every job in MK15 starts with access, parking and site rules.

Willen: Offices at parks like Cromwell Business Park (1.4 miles north-east of Willen) have receptions, kitchens and glazed partitions where a tidy joint matters. If you have premises on more than one site, say at Cromwell Business Park and Blakelands Industrial Estate, one contractor and one quote can cover both.

After the work

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:

  • Look at the sealant around anything that has been moved or replaced
  • Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
  • Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
  • Report cracked or peeling sealant early

In washrooms and kitchens, extraction makes a real difference to sealant life. Extraction that isn’t working keeps the joints wet, and mould follows damp. It’s worth having fans checked while the sealant is fresh.

Occupiers often notice failing sealant before the facilities team does, and in a hotel, office or shop it makes the whole space look neglected. Replacing it on a planned cycle keeps complaints down.

Doing it in-house

Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.

Cost factors for sealant joints

Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:

  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Travel to remote or island sites
  • The total length or number of joints

We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.

What to include in your enquiry

To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:

  • Any specification or named product
  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • The type of building and who uses it

A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

When it isn’t the sealant

Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:

  • Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
  • A dripping trap, valve or pipe behind a fitting
  • A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane

Questions we’re asked in MK15

Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?

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 five million pounds of public liability insurance.

How soon can the area be used again?

Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.

Is it OK to apply fresh sealant over existing beads?

Removal comes first, every time. After that come cleaning, primer where needed, backing and the new sealant.

Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?

Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.

Do you cover MK15?

Yes. We cover MK15, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, phone 01277 525 020 or email us.

Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?

It can, on some older buildings. That’s why we ask for the asbestos information first, and stop if a material is suspect until it’s tested.
