Why it’s worth doing now in Arreton
Open external joints let water into walls and around frames. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes and those cost far more to put right. Halls, stores and units around places like Arreton may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Why us?
- Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Arreton
Older blocks and commercial buildings can have mastic that contains asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If you have repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and communal area joints that look neglected, we can help. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Arreton from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
For buildings around smaller places like Arreton, we group work so one trip covers it. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. If an installation problem shows up, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will arrange a return visit.

When to call us in Arreton
Much failed sealant was laid on dirty, dusty or damp surfaces. Where the faces weren’t cleaned or primed as specified it comes away from one face.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Complaints coming in block by block
- Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
- Draughts at frames across a block
Property owners at sites such as Langbridge Business Centre, 1.1 miles to the east of Arreton, can have mastic renewed between lettings.
Before you book anyone
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- How they’ll work around occupants
- How joint depth will be controlled
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For work around Arreton, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Before we start on site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Agree which areas must stay open

- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Balcony and threshold joints

Questions about Arreton
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Sandown station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
Will you take on work at estates like Langbridge Business Centre, close to Arreton?
Yes. Our area takes in Arreton and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Langbridge Business Centre included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
How soon can the area be used again?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee and we hold public liability insurance.

Frames, entrances and external joints in Arreton
Arreton sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building usually need attention first.

With historic buildings such as Arreton Manor, 0.5 miles north-west of Arreton, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Arreton should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.
