New build and refits around South Gorley
South Gorley sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Headlands Business Park (2.6 miles south of South Gorley) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Fordingbridge Hospital, which lies north-west of South Gorley, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. When a school such as Hyde Church of England Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

Construction mastic in South Gorley
On refurbishments, the mastic package normally includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old, and on older buildings we ask for the asbestos survey before disturbing anything. After that, the joints are prepared and sealed to the specification. We work on floor and skirting junctions, window and door perimeters and brick and block movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are missed perimeter joints on a new elevation and existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing. A single leaking joint is often how a building in South Gorley first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Around smaller places like South Gorley, building work typically means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What the job involves on each surface
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
In bathrooms and washrooms, an anti-mould sanitary silicone goes around every fitting. Joints are cleaned, sealed and tooled neatly, and any bath is loaded with water first where that’s the agreed method.
Snagging before handover
Damaged, missed or untidy joints make up most snag lists. Snagging can be included or priced separately.
When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Glazing units that are cracked or misted
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Brick and block movement joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Internal decorators’ caulk
On site: what to expect
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Rural sites near South Gorley may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- A fixed quote sets out the scope, the products and the sequence.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- Work follows the programme, area by area, as rooms and elevations become ready.
- Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- We close out snagging and hand over with a 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Confirm the product named in the specification

Common questions from South Gorley clients
Is South Gorley too far out for you?
Not at all. South Gorley is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Fordingbridge Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Can you work plot by plot or floor by floor?
Our work is sequenced around the programme. Areas are sealed as they’re released by the site team.
How do we ask for a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Who decides which product is used?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Is the mastic package guaranteed?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. Keeping other trades off finished joints prevents most problems.
Building owners, agents and FMs in South Gorley
We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around South Gorley. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Whether you are 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.
Maintenance after handover
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Use the product the specification names
- Keep scrapers and abrasive pads off new beads
- Plan external elevations with the weather in mind
- Note which sealant went where at handover
Tell the builders’ clean team which areas have new sealant. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean, so stick to soft cloths and gentle cleaners near sealant.
In wet areas, a weak sanitary joint shows up quickly once the building is occupied. Water gets behind trays, vanity tops and panels, and the repair falls into the defects period. Getting the product and preparation right first time avoids that.
When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
