Construction mastic in Godalming
On refurbishments, the mastic package typically includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old, and on older buildings we ask for the asbestos survey before disturbing anything. After that, the joints are prepared and sealed to the specification. If you’re dealing with failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished and frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Godalming 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.
Building work in places the size of Godalming is normally small-scale: a handful of new houses, barn conversions, a school or hall extension. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Facades, frames and programmes in Godalming
Godalming is about 31 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Godalming has a number of hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
Projects at colleges like Godalming College (to the south of Godalming) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly. University estates such as University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus (3.6 miles north of Godalming) tend to have a rolling programme of new buildings and refurbishments, each with window perimeters and facade joints to seal. Hotels like The Kings Arms and Royal Hotel (under half a mile north-east of Godalming) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.

Common questions from Godalming clients
Does your area include sites such as Godalming Business Centre, near Godalming?
Yes. We cover Godalming and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Godalming Business Centre. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is any job too small?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Do you do internal caulk as well as external mastic?
External perimeters and movement joints, internal caulking where specified, sanitary and kitchen joints, plus snagging, all priced as one package.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- How much there is to seal
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
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.
Details that help us quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Access details, including height
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Maintenance after handover
For the best life from the joints:
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
- Keep product details for future maintenance
Once an area is sealed, protect it from following trades. Fresh sealant needs its cure time before it’s cleaned, painted near or knocked.
A missed perimeter seal on one window can wet the reveal and the plaster inside. That normally means redoing finishes in a completed area, and a delay to handover. Checking perimeters before internal finishes go on avoids it.
Honest limits
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
- Glazing units that are cracked or misted
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
From enquiry to sign-off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For a job in Godalming, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. A fixed quote follows.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- We return a fixed quote that ties the mastic package to your programme.
- Any site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) is confirmed with the quote.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Each joint is prepared, backed to depth and sealed in the product the specification names.
- We close out snagging and hand over with a 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
