Questions about Roffey
Is a smaller place like Roffey outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Horsham Hospital, something you do?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Do you do internal caulk as well as external mastic?
Window and door perimeters, internal decorators’ caulk where specified, sanitary joints, kitchens, movement joints and snagging. The scope follows your specification.
Do you use the sealant named in the specification?
We follow the specified sealant. Product standards such as BS EN 15651 are often named in specifications.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
What happens if the weather stops external sealing?
Outside, the joint has to be dry and the temperature within the product’s limits. Frosty or damp mornings can hold up external sealing so we typically switch to internal work when that happens.
Can you work plot by plot or floor by floor?
Working to your programme, we seal each area as it’s handed over. The sequence is settled with your site team.
Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Roffey
Mastic Doctor has been a subcontractor on construction projects for over 20 years. We price from drawings and the specification, agree the sequence with the site team and seal as areas are released. For construction mastic on a scheme in Roffey, send drawings through our quote form, or phone or email us to talk it through. We work on internal decorators’ caulk, brick and block movement joints and floor and skirting junctions, and what we’re called in for most is perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range and failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Roffey first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In a smaller place such as Roffey, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Construction mastic around Roffey: points for this area
Roffey lies roughly 31 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. Roffey sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
Extensions at sites like Horsham Hospital (1.1 miles west of Roffey) normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. School extensions, at buildings such as Northolmes Junior School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included. Projects at colleges like The College of Richard Collyer (1 mile west of Roffey) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
Roffey is about 1 mile north-east of Horsham, in West Sussex. We send applicators to Roffey for mastic packages, handled exactly as we handle every other area. 373 places across West Sussex fall within our area, including Roffey. Our Brighton page has more on work in that area.

Related advice
What happens if it’s left?
Patching snags as they appear can feel quicker than a proper close-out. A planned sweep of each plot or floor catches the lot in one go, and avoids repeated visits. Snagging can be priced as a separate stage. Over time, UV, weather and movement wear any sealant out. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Snagging before handover
The last pass before handover is where mastic snags are cleared. We can work through the snag list area by area.
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulk is easy to apply badly. Done properly, it saves decorators time and gives a clean line and keeps the snag list down.
Looking after the joints
For the best life from the joints:
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
- Release areas for mastic once other trades have finished in them
- Put any product change through the designer first
At handover, keep the product details with the O&M information. Future maintenance is easier when the products are known, and tells you what to reseal with. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
In wet areas, a weak sanitary joint shows up quickly once the building is occupied. Leaks behind showers and basins damage finishes and floors, and the repair falls into the defects period. Proper preparation, with the right silicone first time, keeps it off the defects list.
