Construction mastic in Ingrams Green, done properly
The specification and the programme set the job, not to habit. Where the specification names a product, we use it. Backing, primer and depth follow what the sealant maker sets out so the detail on the drawing is what ends up on site. 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 frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed and existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Ingrams Green is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller places like Ingrams Green, building work usually means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Common questions from Ingrams Green clients
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Midhurst Community Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is a smaller place like Ingrams Green outside your area?
Not at all. Ingrams Green is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Does weather affect external mastic work?
Conditions have to suit the product before external work starts. Sealing in poor conditions risks adhesion failure so it’s better to wait.
Is the mastic package guaranteed?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. Protecting sealed areas from following trades helps avoid damage.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Do you install fire-rated sealant as part of a package?
We install fire-rated sealant where it is the specified product, working to the specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance. We’ll flag if the detail needs a different product.
How do we ask for a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
How the job changes by surface
External facade and movement joints
External movement joints often need primer, depending on the substrate. Primer goes on where the sealant maker calls for it and work only when conditions suit.
Snagging before handover
Damaged, missed or untidy joints make up most snag lists. We price snagging as part of the package or as a separate visit, depending on what suits the programme.
After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
- Don’t schedule sealing before decorators and flooring are done
- Record the products used in the O&M file
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
A new structure shifts as it loses construction moisture. Flexible sealants in the right joints handle normal movement, but caulk in a joint that moves more than expected may crack. If that happens, let us know.
Oversized gaps are a problem better caught early. Filling a wide gap with sealant alone sets up a failure. We raise them during our first walk of the area.
On site: what to expect
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out.

Common problems we fix in Ingrams Green
Dust is the enemy of adhesion on a construction site. Dust, film adhesive, damp and grease on the joint faces prevent a proper bond so faces get cleaned, and primer goes on wherever the maker specifies, even on new work.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- A long mastic snag list close to completion
- Existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing
- Missed perimeter joints on a new elevation
- Inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot
With historic properties like Cowdray House (3.1 miles east of Ingrams Green) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.

What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Why act early in Ingrams Green
On a refurbishment, there’s a choice between resealing existing frames and replacing them. If the frame is in good order, cutting out and resealing the perimeter can be all it needs, which is a much smaller cost. If the frame is life-expired, we’ll tell you. Around Ingrams Green, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.

Mastic packages on Ingrams Green sites
Ingrams Green is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Ingrams Green is about 47 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.
Extensions at sites like Midhurst Community Hospital, 3 miles to the east of Ingrams Green, usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. Units on estates such as Midhurst Business Centre (to the east of Ingrams Green) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
