Your questions answered
Do you cover business parks and estates near Dormans Park, such as Scanda-Hus Business Park?
Yes, sites like Scanda-Hus Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Dormans Park. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Dormans Park off your patch?
No. Places such as Dormans Park are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. Buildings are scheduled in turn so you can plan around it.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
We can. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order, and the programme can start with the worst.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
About our mastic sealing in Dormans Park
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. If you have a mix of products and colours from past repairs and communal area joints that look neglected, we can put it right. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Dormans Park, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around smaller places like Dormans Park, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll come back to it.

Looking after buildings in and around Dormans Park
Central London is about 25 miles from Dormans Park. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres. Dormans Park is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.
Churches, halls and community buildings such as St John the Evangelist are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time. For a school such as Bush Davies School of Theatre Arts, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Older buildings near Dormans Park, from historic houses such as Saint Hill Manor, 3.1 miles south of Dormans Park, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.
Dormans Park is about 1 mile north of East Grinstead, in Surrey. We cover Dormans Park, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else.

What happens if it’s left?
Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. Converted and older buildings near places like Dormans Park tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Our process
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. Smaller jobs around Dormans Park can be grouped with others nearby. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Preparing the site
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
Request a quote
A good quote starts with a clear picture: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Advice
Keeping the joints sound
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.
Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Dormans Park
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

Cost factors for mastic joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- How much existing material needs removing
- The size and state of each joint
- The product specified
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The postcode of the building
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.
What we can’t put right
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer.
