When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Albury: questions and answers
Is Albury too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Albury is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Albury?
Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
How do you handle work on occupied blocks?
The work is planned around occupiers. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told, and entrances stay in use.
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, and we confirm it before leaving site.
How do you choose the sealant?
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.
How long will the new sealant last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, backed by public liability insurance.
Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges, and note the building and elevation.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:

Advice
Frames, entrances and external joints in Albury
Central London is about 44 miles from Albury. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first.
Older buildings near Albury, from historic houses such as Adwell House (4.3 miles south-east of Albury) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. Landlords with units on estates such as Camp Industrial Estate, 0.9 miles south of Albury, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme. Older community buildings, Church of St Helen among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.
