Cost factors for mastic packages
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Which sealant the job calls for
- The size and state of each joint
- Working within restricted access windows
- How much there is to seal
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- The product your specification calls for
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Your programme or deadline
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Construction mastic in Middleton-on-Sea
Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Existing joints have to be stripped back to sound faces, because fresh sealant can’t key into cured silicone. After that, the joints are prepared and sealed to the specification. If you have new external sealant already peeling away and inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot, we can put it right. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Middleton-on-Sea, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Conversions around smaller places like Middleton-on-Sea often join new frames to old masonry or timber, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Fire-rated sealant where specified
Fire-rated sealant forms part of some packages, installed to the product’s tested detail where it is specified. Fire stopping design belongs to the designer and building control and we install what’s specified.
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulk is easy to apply badly. A neat, consistent caulk line makes the decorators’ job quicker.
Questions about Middleton-on-Sea
Would you work within a site like Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Does your area include sites such as Ford Airfield Industrial Estate, near Middleton-on-Sea?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Middleton-on-Sea, Ford Airfield Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
How do we ask for a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.
What do you charge?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.
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 use the sealant named in the specification?
Specification first, then the maker’s instructions. Preparation, backing and depth follow the product guidance.
On site: what to expect
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we’re cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Middleton-on-Sea need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.
- First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
- A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
- Paperwork is agreed and applicators are inducted on site.
- We seal plot by plot or floor by floor in line with the programme.
- Any frame gaps or issues outside our scope are flagged to the site team.
- The package is closed out, snags cleared and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
Ask for a quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Middleton-on-Sea
On a refurbishment, there’s a choice between resealing existing frames and replacing them. Sound frames often need only a new perimeter seal, which is a much smaller cost. We will say so if a frame itself is the problem. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.
Why appoint us
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
- Public liability insurance in place
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product

What we’re called out for in Middleton-on-Sea
Wide, tapered or inconsistent gaps around frames are a common problem. Every product has limits on how wide a joint it can bridge. Better to raise it at the start than seal a joint that’s bound to fail.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Mastic snags holding up handover
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- Frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed
School extensions, at buildings such as Bishop Tufnell CofE Primary School, usually run to the summer holidays, mastic included.

Mastic packages on Middleton-on-Sea sites
Middleton-on-Sea lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, so we check the specified product suits the exposure before the first bead. Rainfall across the South East, Middleton-on-Sea included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
Hospital estates such as Bognor Regis War Memorial Hospital, 2.4 miles west of Middleton-on-Sea, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Ancton House Hotel (0.5 miles east of Middleton-on-Sea), normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
Middleton-on-Sea is about 3 miles east of Bognor Regis, in West Sussex. We cover commercial sites throughout Middleton-on-Sea, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

Looking after the joints
After handover, these steps help:
- Record the products used in the O&M file
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
- Use the product the specification names
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
Once an area is sealed, protect it from following trades. Fresh sealant needs its cure time before it’s cleaned, painted near or knocked.
In wet areas, a weak sanitary joint shows up quickly once the building is occupied. Leaks behind showers and basins damage finishes and floors, leaving the remedial work to the contractor. Proper preparation, with the right silicone first time, keeps it off the defects list.
