When to call us in Chobham
Not every failure is in the sealant: crumbling render, spalling concrete or flaking paint take the sealant with them. When the joint edges need repair first, we say so.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Draughts around frames and panels
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Patch repairs that keep failing
- Unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation
With historic properties like Botleys Mansion (to the north-east of Chobham) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.

Facade sealing in Chobham
Water ingress at window frames is a frequent reason facilities managers contact us. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip. If the evidence points away from the sealant, we say so before quoting. Most enquiries involve sealant pulling away from frames or panels and air leaks through failed facade joints, on stone and brick facade joints, window and door perimeters and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Chobham, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Render or concrete edges that have broken away
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Aftercare for building managers
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Ask about asbestos in pre-2000 mastic
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Watch for splits, gaps at the edges, hardening and discolouration; record the locations.
Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones inside the building.
Leave it or put it right?
Topping up a failed joint typically buys very little time. A full cut-out and fresh bead is the repair that holds, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Advice
New build and refits around Chobham
Central London is about 24 miles from Chobham. 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
Building work at universities like Imperial College Silwood Park Campus (to the north-west of Chobham) is often timed for the summer, mastic included. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Nuffield Health Woking Hospital (2.2 miles south-east of Chobham), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.

FAQs: Chobham
Is Chobham too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Nuffield Health Woking Hospital, something you do?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. Fresh silicone won’t grip cured silicone, so the existing bead is removed entirely. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
How is access to upper-level joints handled?
We agree access with the client at the start. Let us know what access is in place or planned.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
