Construction mastic in Lordington
Buyers, tenants and clients notice sealant lines long before they notice the structure. A smeared bead round a window or a gap behind a worktop ends up on the snag list, and every return visit costs time. Our aim is joints that pass at the first inspection, area by area through the programme. If you have cracks opening in caulked internal joints and failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished, we can help. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Lordington from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around smaller places like Lordington, 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. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Construction mastic in Lordington: the local picture
Lordington is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. At about 55 miles from central London, Lordington is within reach of the capital. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Extensions at sites like Spire Hospital Portsmouth, 3 miles to the west of Lordington, usually sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Hambrook Business Park, 1.4 miles south of Lordington, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For contractors at a school such as Bourne Community College, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
Lordington is about 4 miles east of Havant, in West Sussex. We cover Lordington, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. 373 places across West Sussex fall within our area, including Lordington. Sites around Portsmouth have their own page, about 10 miles away.

When something else is needed
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Window and door perimeters
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Brick and block movement joints
For managing agents and facilities managers
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
How the job changes by surface
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
In bathrooms and washrooms, an anti-mould sanitary silicone goes around every fitting. Joints are cleaned, sealed and tooled neatly and baths are loaded where appropriate before sealing.
Window and door perimeters
A frame gap that’s too wide can’t just be filled with sealant. Gaps outside the product’s range are raised with the site team before sealing starts.
Common questions from Lordington clients
Would you work within a site like Spire Hospital Portsmouth?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you take on work at estates like Hambrook Business Park, close to Lordington?
Yes. We cover Lordington and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Hambrook Business Park. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
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 will arrange a visit.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Will you stick to the specified products?
The specification decides the product, and we will raise it if something in it doesn’t suit the joint. Product standards such as BS EN 15651 are often named in specifications.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.

Advice
How the quote is worked out
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- The product specified
- How much there is to seal
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The site’s rules and procedures
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- When you need the work done
- Access details, including height
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The postcode of the building
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Aftercare for building managers
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
- Protect sealed areas from following trades
Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead.
Sealing outside when the joint is damp or too cold leads to poor adhesion. Waiting for a dry joint and the right temperature is better than redoing work so external sequencing builds in some flexibility.
