Doing it in-house
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Chelsham
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. We work on external wall and movement joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and communal kitchens and washrooms, and what we are called in for most is open joints in brickwork or panels and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors. Most enquiries from Chelsham 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.
Around smaller places like Chelsham, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What affects the price in Chelsham
What shapes the price:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The product specified
- How accessible the joints are
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.
What to include in your enquiry
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Any specification or named product
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. To take the first step, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Looking after the joints
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Silicone typically can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first and the job grows.
When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

Do you guarantee the mastic work?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned and we’ll confirm the approach in the quote.
Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work normally takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access, and we clear our waste as we work. If others near Chelsham need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Preparing the site

Block-wide mastic in Chelsham
Rainfall across the South East, Chelsham included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first. Chelsham is about 13 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
Property owners at sites such as Vulcan Way Industrial Estate, 2.3 miles north-east of Chelsham, can have mastic renewed between lettings. Churches, halls and community buildings such as Church of St Mary the Virgin are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time. With historic buildings such as Addington Palace, 3 miles north of Chelsham, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Chelsham should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.
Chelsham is about 3 miles north-east of Caterham, in Surrey. Anywhere in CR6, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee.
