Construction mastic in Shottermill, done properly

Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance in place. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. If you are dealing with oversized or tapered gaps around new frames and old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Shottermill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

On a small site around Shottermill, the mastic is best done in the fewest visits we can manage. Let us know the key stages and we will time the work so nothing waits on us.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Shottermill as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Construction mastic in Shottermill: the local picture

Shottermill is about 40 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. Shottermill sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.

When units on a site such as Kings Road Industrial Estate, under half a mile to the east of Shottermill, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Hotels like The White Horse Hotel (to the east of Shottermill) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor. School extensions, at buildings such as Camelsdale Primary School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.

Shottermill is about 1 mile west of Haslemere, in Surrey. We cover commercial sites throughout Shottermill. Shottermill is one of 379 places we cover in Surrey for mastic packages. There’s a separate page for Portsmouth, about 24 miles away.

We take on mastic packages across the GU27 and GU26 postcode area, for business premises of every kind. Buildings on Fox Road, New Road and Lion Lane are within our area. Shottermill sits on or close to the A287, useful when we plan access and materials. We also cover Hammer (1 mile west), Woolmer Hill (1 mile south-west), Haslemere (1 mile east), Bramshott Chase (1 mile north-west) and Hammer Bottom (1 mile west) for mastic packages. Nearby towns on our patch include Guildford (13 miles north-east), Farnham (9 miles north), Cranleigh (12 miles east), Ash (11 miles north), Godalming (9 miles north-east) and Farncombe (10 miles north-east).

Local landmarks in Shottermill

Locally, jobs take us to sites close to Woolmer Hill School, Woolmer Hill School and The Staff Of Life Public House. For rail, the closest station is Haslemere station, about 0.8 miles east of the centre. A little further out are Haslemere and District Hospital (1.3 miles east). Not far away are Gibbet Hill and Lynchmere Commons.

What affects the price in Shottermill

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:

  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
  • Access and working height
  • The total length or number of joints

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

What to include in your enquiry

However big the job, these details speed things up:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • What the building is and how it’s used
  • Where the site is, with the postcode
  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available

Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

Our process

When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes whatever the programme allows, since the work follows the trades as areas are released. For a site in Shottermill, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Clear photographs and measurements help us bring the right products.

  1. First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
  2. A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
  3. Site paperwork is confirmed and our CSCS-carded applicators are inducted.
  4. We seal plot by plot or floor by floor in line with the programme.
  5. Any frame gaps or issues outside our scope are flagged to the site team.
  6. Final snagging is completed and the 12-month guarantee applies.

Before we start on site

  • Agree which areas must stay open
  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Confirm the product named in the specification

Getting a fixed quote

Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

Owners, agents and contractors

Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

Your questions answered

Is a smaller place like Shottermill outside your area?

No. Places such as Shottermill are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Does your area include sites such as Kings Road Industrial Estate, near Shottermill?

Yes. Our area takes in Shottermill and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Kings Road Industrial Estate included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.

How long will the new sealant last?

Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

Will you quote for a small job?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

How do we ask for a quote?

You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Include photos or drawings if you have them.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.

Can weather delay the job?

It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

Why it’s worth doing now in Shottermill

Clearing snags piecemeal is tempting when handover is close. But one planned snagging pass through each area usually clears more for less disruption and saves applicators coming back again and again. Snagging can be priced as a separate stage. In a smaller place such as Shottermill, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.

Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Why appoint us

  • Constructionline member for supplier checks
  • Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
  • Clear, fixed quotes
  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product

Take a look at our cost guide or our accreditations.

Keeping the joints sound

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:

  • Stick to the specified sealant rather than a generic substitute
  • Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
  • Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
  • Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed

Record which products went where in the handover file. That helps the building owner maintain the joints later, and tells you what to reseal with. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.

External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Holding off until conditions suit avoids callbacks, so we plan external work with that in mind.

Honest limits

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Frames fitted out of tolerance
  • Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
  • Faulty frames rather than failed sealant

If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think.
