New build and refits around Fetcham
Fetcham sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. Fetcham lies roughly 18 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
On a campus such as University for the Creative Arts, 4.8 miles north-east of Fetcham, new teaching buildings and residences are usually built and refurbished around the academic year. New units and refits on sites such as Leatherhead Industrial Estate, 1 mile north-east of Fetcham, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Projects at schools like Oakfield Junior School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Fetcham
A typical mastic package covers more than window perimeters: external door and window perimeters, internal decorators’ caulk where specified, sanitary joints in bathrooms and washrooms, kitchen worktops and splashbacks, and snagging before handover. Splitting those between trades often leaves gaps in responsibility. We work on floor and skirting junctions, cladding and panel joints and window and door perimeters, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing and perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range. Most enquiries from Fetcham start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Conversions around smaller places like Fetcham often join new frames to old masonry or timber, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

FAQs: Fetcham
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. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is a smaller place like Fetcham outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you do internal caulk as well as external mastic?
External and internal frame perimeters, caulking where it’s specified, sanitary silicone, kitchen joints and snagging before handover. The scope follows your specification.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Can you fit around our programme?
We seal plot by plot or floor by floor as areas are released. The sequence is agreed with the site manager at the start and updated as the programme moves.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
When can you be on site?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving mastic to whichever trade is fitting the element can look cheaper on paper. In practice it often means different standards, gaps in responsibility and snags nobody owns. A single mastic package gives one point of responsibility, with the same standard on every plot. For buildings in places like Fetcham, one well-planned visit beats several small ones, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Why us?
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- One number for every site we cover
- Fixed quotes based on photos, drawings or a visit

General trades versus a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Commercial clients in Fetcham
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The product specified
- Working within restricted access windows
- The size and state of each joint
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Any specification or named product
- When you need the work done
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us.
After the work
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
- Keep product details for future maintenance
- Use the product the specification names
- Don’t force external sealing on a damp or frosty day
Our 12-month guarantee covers the workmanship from sign-off. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault.
In wet areas, a weak sanitary joint shows up quickly once the building is occupied. Water gets behind trays, vanity tops and panels, leaving the remedial work to the contractor. Proper preparation, with the right silicone first time, keeps it off the defects list.
From enquiry to sign-off
Inspect, seal, 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 the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Several jobs near Fetcham can be grouped on one trip. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.
