Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. Early reports catch failures before damage spreads.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.
Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Addlestone
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, external wall and movement joints and communal entrances and stairwells, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are leaks at window and door perimeters and complaints coming in block by block. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Addlestone, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Places the size of Addlestone typically have some housing association stock, small blocks and mixed-use buildings. The mastic around their frames and external joints ages like anywhere else.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Addlestone as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Questions about Addlestone
Will you take on a block within reach of Addlestone station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Will you work in a care home in Addlestone without moving residents out?
Yes. We work around residents’ routines, a room or two at a time. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. 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.
How long before the joints can be used?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Frames, entrances and external joints in Addlestone
Rainfall across the South East, Addlestone included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. There are eight care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Addlestone. Care home owners need frame and external mastic kept sound without unsettling residents.
If your remit includes a building such as Darley Dene Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Landlords with units on estates such as Bourne Business Park (0.6 miles east of Addlestone) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

What sets the cost
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The product specified
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Any specification or named product
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
Signs you need mastic sealing in Addlestone
The edges of the material itself sometimes break away for example where render or brick edges crumble. We will tell you if the joint edges need repairing before resealing.
Look out for the following:
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- Complaints coming in block by block
- Failed external movement joints
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
If you’re responsible for a building such as St Paul's, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.
