About our construction mastic in Westridge
Mastic follows everyone else, which means it absorbs every delay upstream. The sequence is set with the site team and updated as plots or floors are handed over, so applicators arrive when areas are genuinely ready. That keeps the work right first time and saves rework. Site teams most often ask us about old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work and mastic snags holding up handover, on internal decorators’ caulk, sanitary and kitchen joints and floor and skirting junctions. Most enquiries from Westridge start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Around smaller places like Westridge, 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.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

How the job changes by surface
Kitchens and utility areas
On commercial kitchen fit-outs, hygienic sealants are often specified. Joints are sealed smooth so they’re easy to clean.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Not every penetration suits a sealant. Collars, wraps, batts and boards are specified for other services, and we’ll tell you if the detail calls for something else. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
How the quote is worked out
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Phasing around occupants
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Sending details for a quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The type of building and who uses it
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- When you need the work done
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

When to call us in Westridge
Frames installed with uneven gaps make perimeter sealing harder. Sealant has a range of joint widths it can cope with and gaps beyond it need packing or adjusting by the frame installer. We flag them early rather than filling them with sealant that won’t last.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot
- Existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Gosport War Memorial Hospital, 5.5 miles north of Westridge, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
Before you book anyone
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
Maintenance after handover
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean.
A missed perimeter seal on one window can wet the reveal and the plaster inside. That typically means redoing finishes in a completed area and possibly a delayed handover. Checking perimeters before internal finishes go on avoids it.
From enquiry to sign-off
A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work normally takes anything from a day of snagging to several weeks of plot-by-plot sealing on a phased scheme, and we clear our waste as we work. Jobs in and around smaller places like Westridge are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We start with the drawings, specification and programme.
- We take off quantities and return a fixed quote.
- We agree with the site team which areas come first.
- Plots or floors are sealed as they’re handed over.
- Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
- After snagging, the work is handed over under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Building and refurbishing in Westridge
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Westridge. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Appley Manor Hotel, 0.8 miles north of Westridge, normally run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. Historic houses such as Nunwell House (to the south of Westridge) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.
