Mastic sealing for Cranleigh sites

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

Mastic sealing in Cranleigh

Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. The enquiries we see most involve repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and window mastic that has split and shrunk, on balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and communal kitchens and washrooms. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Cranleigh, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

Older buildings and conversions around places like Cranleigh mix old masonry with newer frames. The mastic there needs to suit both surfaces.

We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Keeping the joints sound

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:

  • Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
  • List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
  • Share the asbestos register when you send details
  • Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames

Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Knocks cause many early failures in communal areas.

Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.

Why deal with it now?

Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It doesn’t bond and usually fails within a short time. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Replacing it before it fails keeps water out.

No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Why us?

  • One number for every site we cover
  • Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
  • CHAS accredited
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job

Planned mastic for Cranleigh portfolios

Central London is about 30 miles from Cranleigh. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.

Older community buildings, Church of St Nicholas among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. For owners of several units at places like Littlemead Industrial Estate, 1 mile west of Cranleigh, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. Site managers at schools like St Cuthbert Mayne Catholic Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.

Cranleigh is about 8 miles south-east of Guildford, in Surrey. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Cranleigh use us for work on mastic joints, as part of our coverage of Surrey. Cranleigh is one of 379 places in Surrey on our list. There’s a separate page for Brighton, roughly 26 miles from Cranleigh.

Anyone looking for mastic sealing in GU6 gets the same process as the rest of our area: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. For a building on High Street, Taverner Square and Bridge Road or nearby, send details and we’ll quote for mastic joints. Main routes into Cranleigh include the B2128, which helps when planning parking and deliveries for the job. We also cover Ewhurst (2 miles east), Ewhurst Green (2 miles east), Mayes Green (4 miles east), Walliswood (4 miles east) and Ellen's Green (4 miles south-east). A short drive away, we cover Guildford (8 miles north-west), Woking (13 miles north), Horley (14 miles east), Redhill (15 miles north-east), Farnham (14 miles west) and Reigate (14 miles north-east).

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. For a site in Cranleigh, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.

  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. Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
  4. Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
  5. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.

Cost factors for mastic joints

To price the job, we consider:

  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Travel to remote or island sites
  • Working within restricted access windows
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements

Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

What we need to price the job

We can often quote from photographs and a few details. It helps to include:

  • When you need the work done
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • The type of building and who uses it
  • Access details, including height

If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Common questions from Cranleigh clients

Does your area include sites such as Littlemead Industrial Estate, near Cranleigh?

Yes. Our area takes in Cranleigh and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Littlemead Industrial Estate included. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

Is Cranleigh too far out for you?

Not at all. Cranleigh is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

How do you choose the sealant?

Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

Can you seal joints high up on a block?

Every block is different. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so there are no surprises.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.

How long does a typical visit take?

It depends on the scope, but the work typically takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.

Different surfaces, different methods

Planned maintenance

How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Commercial buildings have mastic at shopfronts, entrances and external joints. We work across portfolios on a planned basis.

For managing agents and facilities managers

We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. One quote can cover more than one site, which keeps the paperwork simple.

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Cranleigh can form part of a wider programme across Surrey.
