Construction mastic near Binscombe

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

New build and refits around Binscombe

Binscombe sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. There are a number of hotels within about 2 miles of Binscombe. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.

For contractors refurbishing units at places like Home Farm Business Park, which lies north-east of Binscombe, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. Projects at colleges like Godalming College (2 miles south of Binscombe) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.

Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Binscombe

Mastic tends to be one of the final packages before handover, so it lands at exactly the point the programme is tightest. We work as a mastic subcontractor to main contractors and developers on schemes in Binscombe, sealing plot by plot or floor by floor as areas are released. The enquiries we see most involve frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed and internal caulk splitting as the building dries out, on brick and block movement joints, window and door perimeters and internal decorators’ caulk. Searching for sealant specialists in Binscombe? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Sites around smaller places like Binscombe can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.

Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

What we can’t put right

Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:

  • Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
  • Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
  • Damage to finishes by other trades after we have sealed

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.

Where we work in Binscombe

  • Sanitary and kitchen joints
  • Internal decorators’ caulk
  • Window and door perimeters
  • Cladding and panel joints
  • Floor and skirting junctions
  • Brick and block movement joints

Our process

At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. If others near Binscombe need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. We price from the drawings, specification and programme you send.
  2. You receive a fixed quote listing scope, products and phasing.
  3. You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
  4. Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
  5. Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
  6. Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Advice

Your questions answered

Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus?

Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.

Do you cover business parks and estates near Binscombe, such as Home Farm Business Park?

Yes. Our area takes in Binscombe and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Home Farm Business Park included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Do you install fire-rated sealant as part of a package?

Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the manufacturer’s tested details. Fire-stopping design and sign-off sit with the designer and building control.

What hours do you work?

Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.

Do you need to see the site first?

Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.

Do you offer coloured sealant?

It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.

Leave it or put it right?

A quick bead over a damaged joint can get an area past inspection, but it rarely lasts. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to. Damaged joints are removed and resealed from clean faces. Around Binscombe, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.

The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Why clients in Binscombe choose us

  • Failed material removed, not covered up
  • One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland

See what affects the cost and our accreditations and insurance.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

What the job involves on each surface

Internal decorators’ caulk

Caulk is easy to apply badly. A neat, consistent caulk line makes the decorators’ job quicker and reduces snags.

External facade and movement joints

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

What we are called out for in Binscombe

On construction sites, joints typically fail early because of when they were sealed, not what was used. Sealing before decorators, flooring or other trades have finished leaves joints exposed to damage.

Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:

  • New external sealant already peeling away
  • Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
  • Oversized or tapered gaps around new frames
  • Different trades sealing to different standards

For a contractor at a hotel such as Godalming Hotel, which lies south-east of Binscombe, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

What to look for in a quote

  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
  • How they handle RAMS and site documents
  • Their pre-qualification and accreditations
