About our mastic sealing in Ashurst Bridge
Managing agents and housing associations usually need paperwork before anyone starts. For documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and we carry public liability insurance. If you’re dealing with damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors and occupiers reporting cold air round windows, we can put it right, on external wall and movement joints, communal entrances and stairwells and communal kitchens and washrooms alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Ashurst Bridge, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Ashurst Bridge tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

What we can’t put right
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Balcony and threshold joints
- External wall and movement joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Window and door perimeters on blocks

How the job changes by surface
Tenement and older buildings
Older mastic can contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. Suspect material is tested before work continues.
Planned maintenance
Resealing can be scheduled alongside other planned works on a timetable you set.
Common questions from Ashurst Bridge clients
Will you take on work at estates like Rushington Business Park, close to Ashurst Bridge?
Yes. Our area takes in Ashurst Bridge and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Rushington Business Park included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you work in a care home near Ashurst Bridge with residents in?
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.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned and we will confirm the approach in the quote.
How soon can the area be used again?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
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: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Leave it or put it right?
Reacting to every complaint means sending someone out block by block. A planned programme treats each building once, under a single quote and a single programme. Halls, stores and units around places like Ashurst Bridge may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.

Planned mastic for Ashurst Bridge portfolios
Ashurst Bridge sits close to the coast, within about 3 miles. For owners and agents with buildings near the sea, exposed elevations are where frame mastic fails first; plan inspections around that. Ashurst Bridge is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.
If you look after a block within reach of Totton station, 1.5 miles to the east of Ashurst Bridge, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. Owners of student blocks near Southampton Solent University (to the east of Ashurst Bridge) can schedule frame and external mastic for the summer vacation. Older community buildings, Church of St Matthew among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

Aftercare for building managers
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Log resealing dates block by block
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first and the job grows.
