How we handle construction mastic in Epsom
Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old and the asbestos survey is checked first on older stock. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. If you’re dealing with inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot and a long mastic snag list close to completion, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Epsom tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Older town-centre buildings in places like Epsom are often converted to new uses or extended, so new windows and cladding meet old masonry. Those junctions need a sealant and primer that suit both surfaces.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Quoting for work in Epsom
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How much there is to seal
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Any access equipment needed
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
Sending details for a quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- When you need the work done
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- The postcode of the building
To get a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the site address and an outline of the work. Our quote form is another easy route.
Construction mastic in Epsom: the local picture
The area within 2 miles of Epsom holds several hotels. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. At about 14 miles from central London, Epsom is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
Work at a hotel such as Former Chalk Lane Hotel (0.9 miles south of Epsom) tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included. When a college such as North East Surrey College of Technology (to the east of Epsom) builds or refurbishes, the mastic package normally has to fit around students and staff. Building work at universities like University for the Creative Arts (0.5 miles south-east of Epsom) is often timed for the summer, mastic included.

What else we do in Epsom
Work for main contractors and building owners
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
How a job runs
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Parking and loading for town-centre jobs in Epsom are worth mentioning when you send details. On estates and business parks it’s usually simpler.
- First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
- A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
- Paperwork is agreed and applicators are inducted on site.
- We seal plot by plot or floor by floor in line with the programme.
- Problems we find, such as oversized gaps, are raised right away.
- Final snagging is completed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

What the job involves on each surface
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
On multi-unit schemes, consistency matters across hundreds of bathrooms. One applicator team gives the same finish everywhere following the programme.
Internal decorators’ caulk
Acrylic caulk fills internal gaps around trims, boards and frames ahead of decorating. It’s for gaps that stay still and get painted, and we use a flexible sealant where there’s movement.
After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
- Use the product the specification names
- Record the products used in the O&M file
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.
External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Holding off until conditions suit avoids callbacks so external sequencing builds in some flexibility.
When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Oversized gaps that need packing or adjustment by others
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Brick and block movement joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
Epsom: questions and answers
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Epsom 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.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University for the Creative Arts?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Do you take on small jobs?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Can you send site paperwork?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
