Mastic sealing near Chalton

Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right

Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:

  • Misted or failed double-glazed units
  • Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
  • Leaks from above rather than through a joint

Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we seal

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

How we handle mastic sealing in Chalton

Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you, giving you what you need to notify residents. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use while we work. If you are dealing with draughts at frames across a block and worn sealant at communal door frames, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Most enquiries from Chalton start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.

For owners with a single building near Chalton, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Your questions answered

Is Chalton too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Can you work at a site such as Enterprise Industrial Estate, by Chalton?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Chalton, Enterprise Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

Do you take on small jobs?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, ring 01277 525 020 or email us. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.

What do you charge?

That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll price it properly.

How long does a typical visit take?

That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.

General trades versus a specialist

Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after the joints

After handover, these steps help:

  • Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
  • Share your contractor requirements early
  • Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first

Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges, and note the building and elevation.

Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down the list.

Blocks and managed buildings in Chalton

Central London is about 54 miles from Chalton. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres. Rainfall across the South East, Chalton included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.

If you are responsible for a building such as Church of St Michael, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property. For agents with blocks near Rowlands Castle station, 3.1 miles to the south of Chalton, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.

From enquiry to sign-off

Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Rural sites near Chalton may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.

  1. First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
  2. A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
  3. Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot

Why act early in Chalton

Draughts round window perimeters cost occupiers comfort and the windows usually get the blame. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it when the frames themselves are sound. Halls, stores and units around places like Chalton may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Why clients in Chalton choose us

  • Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
  • CHAS accredited contractor
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job
  • Fully insured, including public liability cover

What we are called out for in Chalton

Previous repairs often sealed new mastic over old. New sealant won’t grip failed sealant and the repair soon fails.

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Worn sealant at communal door frames
  • Open joints in brickwork or panels
  • Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
  • A mix of products and colours from past repairs

Older buildings near Chalton, from historic houses such as Uppark, 3.2 miles east of Chalton, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.

What your quote should include

  • Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
  • How the existing material will be dealt with
  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
