About our construction mastic in Marehill
Mastic is often where a new building first shows its quality to the client. Untidy or missed joints are among the commonest snag items, and every return visit costs time. Our aim is joints that pass at the first inspection, whatever the size of the scheme. If you are dealing with frame gaps too wide for sealant alone and different trades sealing to different standards, we can put it right. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Marehill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For a site near Marehill, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Common questions from Marehill clients
Will you take on work at estates like Station Approach Industrial Estate, close to Marehill?
Yes, sites like Station Approach Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Marehill. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Marehill too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Marehill is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you do fire-rated sealing on new builds?
It can be part of the package where specified. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Do you take on small jobs?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Do you use the sealant named in the specification?
We work to the specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance. Preparation, backing and depth follow the product guidance.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes a day or two on a small fit-out and several weeks on a large multi-storey package. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
What accreditations do you hold?
CHAS and Constructionline are both in place, and each applicator is CSCS-carded. We are fully insured for public liability.
After the work
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
- Don’t schedule sealing before decorators and flooring are done
Tell the builders’ clean team which areas have new sealant. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean.
External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Holding off until conditions suit avoids callbacks.
Construction mastic around Marehill: points for this area
There are a number of hotels within about 2 miles of Marehill. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades. Marehill is about 41 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
School extensions, at buildings such as St Mary's Church of England Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Chequers Hotel, 1.3 miles to the west of Marehill, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
Marehill is about 10 miles north of Worthing, in West Sussex. Our applicators travel to Marehill for work on mastic packages. Marehill is one of 373 places in West Sussex on our list. For work in that direction, see our Brighton page.

Around Marehill, our work takes us to commercial buildings near The Rising Sun Inn and the streets around them. For rail, the closest station is Pulborough station, about 1.6 miles west.

Leave it or put it right?
Patching snags as they appear can feel quicker than a proper close-out. But one planned snagging pass through each area typically clears more for less disruption. We can run snagging as its own phase before handover. Halls, stores and units around places like Marehill may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Pricing mastic packages depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Fire-stopping design or sign-off (that’s for the designer, fire engineer and building control)
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Brick and block movement joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding and panel joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
What we are called out for in Marehill
Swapping the specified sealant for a cheaper general-purpose product is a common cause of failure. A general-purpose silicone on a facade or a caulk in a wet area won’t perform like the specified product. We stick to the specified product, or put any alternative to you first.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Different trades sealing to different standards
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
- A long mastic snag list close to completion
With historic properties like Old Place Manor, 1.4 miles to the west of Marehill, in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
What to look for in a quote
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
