How the job changes by surface
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulk is easy to apply badly. Done properly, it saves decorators time and gives a clean line.
Window and door perimeters
A frame gap that’s too wide can’t just be filled with sealant. Gaps outside the product’s range are raised with the site team before sealing starts.
About our construction mastic in Ashtead
External mastic depends on the weather in a way most internal trades don’t. Cold or damp mornings, frost and condensation on frames can all hold external sealing up, so we plan elevations with the forecast and the programme in mind. Internal areas can typically carry on while the outside waits. We work on floor and skirting junctions, internal decorators’ caulk and sanitary and kitchen joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are missed perimeter joints on a new elevation and bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Ashtead, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Developers and contractors working in Ashtead want mastic that keeps pace with the build: perimeters sealed before scaffold is struck, internal sealant after decoration, snags before handover. Tell us the programme and we’ll quote to it.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Common problems we fix in Ashtead
Value-engineered products sometimes end up in the wrong joints. A general-purpose silicone on a facade or a caulk in a wet area won’t perform like the specified product. We use what’s specified, and any substitute goes to you for acceptance.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Different trades sealing to different standards
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- New external sealant already peeling away
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
School extensions, at buildings such as Parsons Mead School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
Our process
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself typically takes a day or two on a small fit-out and several weeks on a large multi-storey package, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. In a town such as Ashtead, most jobs are single buildings. Your photos, drawings or a site visit come first, followed by a fixed quote.
- Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
- We take off quantities and return a fixed quote.
- We agree with the site team which areas come first.
- Plots or floors are sealed as they’re handed over.
- Every joint is cleaned, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- Snags are cleared and the package signed off with our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Related advice
Looking after the joints
For the best life from the joints:
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Plan external elevations with the weather in mind
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
Expect some settlement in the first months. Flexible sealants in the right joints handle normal movement while rigid fillers and caulk can crack where movement is larger. If that happens, let us know.
Sealing outside when the joint is damp or too cold leads to poor adhesion. Waiting for a dry joint and the right temperature is better than redoing work so external sequencing builds in some flexibility.
Facades, frames and programmes in Ashtead
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so the external programme keeps a little slack. Ashtead is about 16 miles from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Regent Park Business Centre (1.3 miles west of Ashtead) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. Historic houses such as Fitznells Manor, 3.7 miles to the north-east of Ashtead, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

How the quote is worked out
Before we quote, we look at:
- How much existing material needs removing
- How much there is to seal
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Access and working height
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
What to include in your enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Your programme or deadline
- Access details, including height
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
Questions we’re asked in Ashtead
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University for the Creative Arts?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Ashtead Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Typically, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
Do you guarantee new-build sealant work?
The work is guaranteed for 12 months. Keeping other trades off finished joints prevents most problems.
How long do sealant joints 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.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
