Questions about Bramley
Is Broadford Business Park, near Bramley, within your area?
Yes, sites like Broadford Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Bramley. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
We manage a building near Shalford station. Can you help?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit usually takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
Yes. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work, and we quote building by building or as a programme.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Bramley
Before work starts, most agents and landlords want the documents in order. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance. Site teams most often ask us about water getting in round frames after rain and open joints in brickwork or panels, across window and door perimeters on blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Bramley, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Converted and older buildings in and around Bramley often put modern windows into old walls. Perimeter joints need a sealant that suits both frame and masonry.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Doing it in-house
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Advice
Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. A programme can start with the worst buildings so spending is spread.
What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer.

Signs you need mastic sealing in Bramley
We often find joints filled solid with no backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. It can’t stretch properly and splits as the building moves.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Draughts at frames across a block
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- Complaints coming in block by block
For a school such as St Catherine's School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.
