Block-wide mastic in Broyle Side
Broyle Side lies roughly 42 miles out from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property. Broyle Side is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are typically where frame mastic ages first.

Landlords with units on estates such as Caburn Enterprise Park (under half a mile south of Broyle Side) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

Related advice
Do you need mastic sealing in Broyle Side?
We often find joints filled solid with no backing rod so the mastic is bonded on three sides. That three-sided adhesion stops it stretching and splits as the building moves.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
With historic buildings such as Glyndebourne (to the south of Broyle Side) in the wider area, owners of older properties around Broyle Side should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.

FAQs: Broyle Side
Will you take on work at estates like Caburn Enterprise Park, close to Broyle Side?
Yes, sites like Caburn Enterprise Park are within our area, along with the rest of Broyle Side. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is Broyle Side off your patch?
No. Places such as Broyle Side are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we’ll confirm the approach in the quote.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
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.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Occupiers stay in the building throughout. If any flats or units need access, we will tell you in advance so you can arrange it with occupiers.
Honest limits
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

General trades versus a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

Surface by surface
External movement joints
External movement joints take up expansion and contraction. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Commercial buildings have mastic at shopfronts, entrances and external joints. We work across portfolios on a planned basis.
