- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Ashurst Wood
Treatment starts with a proper look: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. Failed mastic is stripped, the faces taken back to sound material, primed where the manufacturer specifies and resealed, with backing rod setting the depth where it’s needed. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, external wall and movement joints and communal kitchens and washrooms, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are movement joints with sealant missing and a mix of products and colours from past repairs. Most enquiries from Ashurst Wood start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Around smaller places like Ashurst Wood, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Leave it or put it right?
Adding sealant to cyclical maintenance is an easy win. Leaving it until there’s a leak turns it into reactive work and less choice about when. Converted and older buildings near places like Ashurst Wood tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

After the work
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.
From enquiry to sign-off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work normally takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access, and we clear our waste as we work. Rural sites near Ashurst Wood may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
