Construction mastic for businesses in Bevendean

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

How the quote is worked out

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Any access equipment needed
  • How much existing material needs removing

Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

Sending details for a quote

Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:

  • The product your specification calls for
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • The postcode of the building
  • When you need the work done

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

About our construction mastic in Bevendean

On refurbishments, the mastic package typically includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Existing joints have to be stripped back to sound faces, because fresh sealant can’t key into cured silicone. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. We work on internal decorators’ caulk, window and door perimeters and brick and block movement joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are a long mastic snag list close to completion and a mastic package split between trades with no clear owner. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Bevendean tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

In a smaller place such as Bevendean, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.

We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

How a job runs

Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. What matters most for a job in Bevendean is a clear list of what needs doing. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
  2. A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
  3. Paperwork is agreed and applicators are inducted on site.
  4. Sealing follows the programme as areas are released.
  5. Problems we find, such as oversized gaps, are raised straight away.
  6. Final snagging is completed and the 12-month guarantee applies.

Before we start on site

  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Flag any permit to work we’ll need
  • Agree which areas must stay open

Getting a fixed quote

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

FAQs: Bevendean

Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Brighton General 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.

Will you take on work at estates like The Hyde Business Park, close to Bevendean?

Yes. We cover Bevendean and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as The Hyde Business Park. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Building and refurbishing in Bevendean

With the shore within about 2 miles, Bevendean counts as a coastal location. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. There are a good number of hotels within about 2 miles of Bevendean. Hotel extensions and refits typically have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.

Recladding or extending a unit at a site like The Hyde Business Park, less than half a mile to the south of Bevendean, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. For a contractor at a hotel such as Downs Hotel, which lies east of Bevendean, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date. Projects at colleges like Downs View Link College (1.8 miles west of Bevendean) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.

Bevendean is about 1 mile north-east of Brighton, in Brighton and Hove. Our applicators travel to Bevendean for work on mastic packages. Bevendean is one of 29 places we cover in Brighton and Hove.

Should maintenance staff do it?

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.

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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

After the work

For the best life from the joints:

  • Don’t schedule sealing before decorators and flooring are done
  • Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
  • Stick to the specified sealant rather than a generic substitute
  • Keep product details for future maintenance

Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean, so stick to soft cloths and gentle cleaners near sealant.

Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. A planned close-out through each area as it completes keeps the list short.

What the job involves on each surface

Snagging before handover

Snagging is often the final mastic stage. We can work through the snag list area by area, cutting out damaged joints and resealing them properly.

External facade and movement joints

Many facade substrates need a primer before sealing. We prime where the manufacturer specifies.

Why act early in Bevendean

Clearing snags piecemeal is tempting when handover is close. But one planned snagging pass through each area typically clears more for less disruption and saves applicators coming back again and again. Snagging can be priced as a separate stage. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
