Mastic sealing in Burgh Heath

In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. The enquiries we see most involve window mastic that has split and shrunk and failed external movement joints, across external wall and movement joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and shopfronts below residential blocks. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Burgh Heath, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

For owners with a single building near Burgh Heath, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

After the work

After handover, these steps help:

  • List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
  • Share the asbestos register when you send details
  • Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
  • Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks

If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over unless told otherwise.

The longer failed joints are left, the more likely the substrate edges break up. Then the edges may need repairing first.

Blocks and managed buildings in Burgh Heath

The 2 miles around Burgh Heath include six care or nursing homes. Frame mastic on care buildings is best renewed elevation by elevation, with the manager deciding timings. Central London is about 14 miles from Burgh Heath. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.

For agents with blocks near Kingswood station (1 mile south of Burgh Heath), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. Churches, halls and community buildings such as St Mary's are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.

What we can’t put right

We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
  • Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
  • Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor

If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

From enquiry to sign-off

The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Rural sites near Burgh Heath may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  2. You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
  3. We agree the programme and dates with you.
  4. Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
  5. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Leave it or put it right?

Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. Damp patches, stained plaster and decorating claims can follow, which is harder to deal with than resealing. Around Burgh Heath, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

What you get with us

  • Commercial sealant work since 2005
  • Constructionline member for supplier checks
  • A fixed quote before work starts
  • Old sealant cut out, never sealed over

What we’re called out for in Burgh Heath

Communal entrances and corridors see a lot of wear, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Cleaning products add to the wear.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
  • Worn sealant at communal door frames
  • Window mastic that has split and shrunk
  • A mix of products and colours from past repairs

For a school such as Aberdour School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.

Before you book anyone

  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
  • How joint depth will be controlled

Common questions from Burgh Heath clients

Can work in a care setting near Burgh Heath go ahead while residents are there?

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.

Is Burgh Heath too small for you to travel to?

Not at all. Burgh Heath is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

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 will confirm the curing time on the day.

How much does the work cost?

There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

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

How do you reach windows on upper floors?

Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we’ll confirm the approach in the quote.

Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?

We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Owners, agents and contractors

If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
