What sealant work can’t fix
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal

About our construction mastic in Martyr's Green
A typical mastic package covers more than window perimeters: frame perimeters inside and out, caulking to trims and boards where the specification calls for it, sanitary silicone, kitchens, and the final snag list. Splitting those between trades often leaves gaps in responsibility. Site teams most often ask us about a mastic package split between trades with no clear owner and external joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing, across brick and block movement joints, cladding and panel joints and window and door perimeters. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Martyr's Green, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
For a site near Martyr's Green, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Questions about Martyr's Green
Would you work within a site like Cobham Community Hospital and Health Centre?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you take on work at estates like Bookham Industrial Estate, close to Martyr's Green?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Martyr's Green, Bookham Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. 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. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
What will the job cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.
How long before the joints can be used?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.
From enquiry to sign-off
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before we move to the next. For work around Martyr's Green, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- 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.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- Before handover, snags are dealt with and the package is signed off under our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
Quotes
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Keeping the joints sound
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
- Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Don’t schedule sealing before decorators and flooring are done
Expect some settlement in the first months. The right product in each joint copes with that, but caulk in a joint that moves more than expected may crack. We can advise if a joint needs a different product.
Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. A planned close-out through each area as it completes keeps the list short.
How the quote is worked out
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- The product specified
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Whether the work must be split into stages
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Any specification or named product
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Common problems we fix in Martyr's Green
Wide, tapered or inconsistent gaps around frames are a common problem. Sealant has a range of joint widths it can cope with and gaps beyond it need packing or adjusting by the frame installer. We flag them early rather than filling them with sealant that won’t last.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
- Caulk cracking where joints are moving more than expected
- Frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed
- Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as The Hautboy Hotel, 0.9 miles to the west of Martyr's Green, normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
What to look for in a quote
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?

Martyr's Green is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. Central London is about 20 miles from Martyr's Green. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
When units on a site such as Bookham Industrial Estate (to the south-east of Martyr's Green) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Older buildings in the area around Martyr's Green, such as Byfleet Manor, 2.2 miles north-west of Martyr's Green, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.
