Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Flag uneven or tapered frame gaps early
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
- Protect sealed areas from following trades
Once an area is sealed, protect it from following trades. Fresh sealant needs its cure time before it’s cleaned, painted near or knocked, and that time depends on the product, temperature and joint depth.
One unsealed frame can let water into finished internal areas. On a new building that means remedial work after decorating, and a delay to handover. A check of every frame before decorators start is worth the time.
Mastic packages on Lower Burgate sites
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
New wings at hospitals like Fordingbridge Hospital, 0.8 miles south of Lower Burgate, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Projects at schools like The Burgate School and Sixth Form work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

Common questions from Lower Burgate clients
Will you take on work at estates like Arch Farm Industrial Estate, close to Lower Burgate?
Yes. Our area takes in Lower Burgate and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Arch Farm Industrial Estate included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is Lower Burgate too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Lower Burgate are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Can you work to our specification?
We follow the specified sealant, and we’ll raise it if something in it doesn’t suit the joint. Specifications often reference BS EN 15651 or BS 6213.
Can you seal external joints in wet or cold weather?
Conditions have to suit the product before external work starts. Sealing in poor conditions risks adhesion failure.
What we can’t put right
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Window and door perimeters
- Brick and block movement joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
Do you need construction mastic in Lower Burgate?
Three-sided adhesion is a frequent fault on new work. Fixed to three faces, the sealant rips the first time the joint opens so we set the depth properly before sealing.
Look out for the following:
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- External joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing
- Inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot
Historic houses such as Breamore House, 2.2 miles north of Lower Burgate, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.
What your quote should include
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
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.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
What the job involves on each surface
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
Sanitary joints around baths, showers, basins and WCs need anti-mould sanitary silicone. Each joint is prepared, sealed and finished with a neat tooled line.
Window and door perimeters
Inside, a paintable sealant or decorators’ caulk is used where the joint doesn’t move much. We follow what’s specified with colours matched to the frame where needed.
