What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Brick and block movement joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Internal decorators’ caulk
About our construction mastic in Upper Beeding
We work to the specification and the programme rather than whatever product is to hand. Where the specification names a product, we use it. Backing, primer and depth follow what the sealant maker sets out, so the joints perform as the designer intended. The enquiries we see most involve old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work and caulk cracking where joints are moving more than expected, across brick and block movement joints, cladding and panel joints and internal decorators’ caulk. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Upper Beeding, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Upper Beeding bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is normally what’s needed.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What else we do in Upper Beeding
Diagnose, treat, sign off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Smaller jobs around Upper Beeding can be grouped with others nearby. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- 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.
- We seal each plot or floor as it’s released to us.
- Each joint is prepared, backed to depth and sealed in the product the specification names.
- Before handover, snags are dealt with and the package is signed off under our 12-month guarantee.

Advice
Commercial clients in Upper Beeding
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Common problems we fix in Upper Beeding
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. Better to raise it at the start than seal a joint that’s bound to fail.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Missed perimeter joints on a new elevation
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
- Mastic snags holding up handover
- A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
For a contractor at a hotel such as Old Tollgate Hotel & Restaurant (0.6 miles west of Upper Beeding), the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

Sites and facades in and around Upper Beeding
Upper Beeding 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, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. A 2-mile radius around Upper Beeding takes in several hotels. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.

FAQs: Upper Beeding
Is Upper Beeding too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Would you work within a site like Southlands 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.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so we’ll ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
How do I request a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email. Include photos or drawings if you have them.
Can you come in just for snagging?
Yes. Damaged, missed or untidy joints are stripped and done again properly.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
In the majority of cases, yes. Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use, with each area protected and signed.
What affects the price in Upper Beeding
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Working within restricted access windows
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- The size and state of each joint
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- The product your specification calls for
- Any dates the work must fit around
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we will return a fixed quote you can plan around. For a chat about it beforehand, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Doing it in-house
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
