Your questions answered

Can work in a care setting near Durrington go ahead while residents are there?

Yes. We agree rooms and times with the manager and work a few areas at a time. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.

Our building in Durrington is near the coast: does that change the sealant?

It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

Do you work in Durrington?

Yes. Durrington is in our area, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us.

How much does the work cost?

We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photos or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.

Mastic sealing in Durrington, done properly

On a residential block, the work happens around people’s lives. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you, giving you what you need to notify residents. Communal entrances and stairs stay usable while we work. Most enquiries involve patchy repairs in mismatched sealant and failed external movement joints, across communal entrances and stairwells, window and door perimeters on blocks and shopfronts below residential blocks. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Durrington it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

In a smaller place such as Durrington, landlords and agents tend to look after small blocks, flats over shops, sheltered housing and commercial units. The mastic around their frames and external joints ages like anywhere else.

Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Why deal with it now?

Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish. For buildings in places like Durrington, one well-planned visit beats several small ones, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.

The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Why choose Mastic Doctor in Durrington

  • Constructionline member
  • Clear, fixed quotes
  • Over 20 years of commercial sealing
  • Failed material removed, not covered up

Read how commercial sealant jobs are priced or our accreditations and insurance.

Should maintenance staff do it?

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

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.

How the job changes by surface

Communal areas

Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Tidy, sound joints keep them looking cared for.

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Mixed-use buildings combine shops below with flats or offices above, so phasing has to suit both. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Commercial clients in Durrington

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.

From enquiry to sign-off

Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. Work in places the size of Durrington is planned as a single visit where we can. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.

  1. Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
  2. We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
  3. The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
  6. Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Looking after buildings in and around Durrington

With the shore within about 3 miles, Durrington counts as a coastal location. Sea-facing elevations take driven rain and salt, and their mastic shows it before the sheltered sides do, so it’s worth inspecting those sides more often. Durrington has 18 care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Frame mastic on care buildings is best renewed elevation by elevation, with the manager deciding timings.

Churches, halls and community buildings such as St Symphorian's Church 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 own or manage units on a site such as Goring Business Park (1.4 miles south of Durrington), failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Buildings close to stations like Durrington-On-Sea station (1.3 miles south of Durrington) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.
