Facades, frames and programmes in Ansty
Central London is about 35 miles from Ansty. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. A 2-mile radius around Ansty takes in a number of hotels. When hotels extend or refit, the work is typically squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Ockenden Manor Hotel & Spa, which lies north-east of Ansty, typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. When units on a site such as Bolney Grange Business Park, 1.7 miles to the south-west of Ansty, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Projects at colleges like Haywards Heath College, 2.5 miles to the north-east of Ansty, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
Ansty is about 3 miles west of Haywards Heath, in West Sussex. Our applicators travel to Ansty for work on mastic packages. We work across 373 places in West Sussex. We also cover Brighton, around 11 miles from Ansty.

Construction mastic in Ansty, done properly
Buyers, tenants and clients notice sealant lines long before they notice the structure. A smeared bead round a window or a gap behind a worktop ends up on the snag list and clearing them late eats into the handover window. Our aim is joints that pass at the first inspection. We work on cladding and panel joints, floor and skirting junctions and brick and block movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are oversized or tapered gaps around new frames and frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Ansty it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
For a site near Ansty, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Common questions from Ansty clients
Is a smaller place like Ansty outside your area?
No. Places such as Ansty are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like The Dene Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is the mastic package guaranteed?
Each package is signed off with a 12-month workmanship guarantee. Damage by others after we have finished isn’t covered.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photographs, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and each applicator is CSCS-carded. Public liability insurance is in place.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
Typically, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes whatever the programme allows, since the work follows the trades as areas are released. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

How the quote is worked out
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Any access equipment needed
- Travel to remote or island sites
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Before you send an enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving mastic to whichever trade is fitting the element can look cheaper on paper. The result tends to be uneven finishes and arguments about who should seal what. One mastic subcontractor for the lot keeps it simple. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Ansty. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

Looking after the joints
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
- Use the product the specification names
- Protect sealed areas from following trades
After we have sealed an area, it helps to keep other trades from damaging the joints. New beads should be left to cure before cleaning or decorating nearby.
One unsealed frame can let water into finished internal areas. That normally means redoing finishes in a completed area. Checking perimeters before internal finishes go on avoids it.
