Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Climping
Managing agents and housing associations usually need paperwork before anyone starts. For documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We’re a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and we carry public liability insurance. We work on external wall and movement joints, shopfronts below residential blocks and communal entrances and stairwells, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are a mix of products and colours from past repairs and window mastic that has split and shrunk. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Climping first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In and around smaller places like Climping, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
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 the job involves on each surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Window and door perimeters are where most mastic failure shows. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.
External movement joints
Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.
Your questions answered
Is Climping off your patch?
No. Places such as Climping 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.
Do you work in occupied care homes around Climping?
Yes. We work around residents’ routines, a room or two at a time. We follow the home’s own procedures throughout.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee and we hold public liability insurance.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
Why it’s worth doing now in Climping
Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. Planned resealing covers a whole building or estate in one go, under a single quote and a single programme. Older rural buildings around Climping move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.

Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
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. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and the complaints that come with it.
Mastic sealing in Climping: the local picture
Climping sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. For owners and agents with buildings near the sea, exposed elevations are where frame mastic fails first, so it’s worth inspecting those sides more often. Seven care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from Climping. For owners and operators of care buildings, window perimeters and external joints are best renewed in planned phases around residents.
If you own or manage units on a site such as Rudford Industrial Estate, 0.5 miles west of Climping, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Churches, halls and community buildings such as The Parish Church of St Mary are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time. If you manage student housing near a university such as University of Chichester (Bognor Campus) (4.2 miles west of Climping), the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.
Climping is about 2 miles west of Littlehampton, in West Sussex. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Climping use us for work on mastic joints. Climping is one of 373 places we cover in West Sussex. Our Brighton page has more on work in that area (19 miles or so).

Locally, jobs take us to sites close to The Littlehampton Academy and The Black Horse Public House. For rail, the closest station is Littlehampton station, about 1.2 miles east. Well-known places in the area include Arundel and District Hospital (3 miles north) and Rustington Museum (3 miles east). Open spaces near Climping include WWT Arundel.
General trades versus a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
On site: what to expect
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For work around Climping, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
Preparing the site

- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
