Need mastic sealing in Bramshott Chase?

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

When to call us in Bramshott Chase

Poor preparation explains many failed joints. Where the faces weren’t cleaned or primed as specified it comes away from one face.

It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:

  • Complaints coming in block by block
  • Draught complaints from residents or tenants
  • Water getting in round frames after rain
  • Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate

Churches, halls and community buildings such as Church of St Luke are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.

Comparing quotes

  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
  • How joint depth will be controlled

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

How we handle mastic sealing in Bramshott Chase

There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. Window perimeters and external joints often take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product. Most enquiries involve no planned programme for sealant and old repairs sealed over failed mastic, on shopfronts below residential blocks, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Bramshott Chase first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.

Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Bramshott Chase 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: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Different surfaces, different methods

Window and door perimeters on blocks

On most blocks, the frame-to-wall joint is where failure shows first. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.

Estate-wide resealing programmes

An estate of similar buildings suits a rolling programme. Each block is priced and scheduled in order.

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:

  • Materials that need asbestos testing before work
  • Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
  • Misted or failed double-glazed units

If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What we seal

  • External wall and movement joints
  • Communal entrances and stairwells
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Balcony and threshold joints

Bramshott Chase: questions and answers

Do you work in occupied care homes around Bramshott Chase?

Yes. We agree rooms and times with the manager and work a few areas at a time. We follow the home’s own procedures throughout.

Can you quote for a block close to Haslemere 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 just go over the old sealant?

No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.

Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?

Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.

Do you work in Bramshott Chase?

Yes. We cover Bramshott Chase and the rest of Surrey, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

How soon can the area be used again?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.

Can weather delay the job?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

Looking after the joints

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
  • Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
  • Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
  • Log resealing dates block by block

Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. A quick report keeps a small repair small.

Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.

Our process

Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. Smaller jobs around Bramshott Chase can be grouped with others nearby. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
  2. You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
  3. The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
  4. We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

Before we start on site

  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Ask for a quote

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
