About our mastic sealing in Elmbridge Village
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. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and old repairs sealed over failed mastic. Whoever orders the work in Elmbridge Village, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Rural conversions near places like Elmbridge Village often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

When something else is needed
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Quoting for work in Elmbridge Village
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- How accessible the joints are
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Phasing around occupants
- Removal of failed or old sealant
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Advice
Common problems we fix in Elmbridge Village
The edges of the material itself sometimes break away for instance where render or brick edges crumble. If the edges are unsound, we say so before quoting the sealing.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- No planned programme for sealant

What to look for in a quote

- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?

Questions about Elmbridge Village
Is Elmbridge Village too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Is Littlemead Industrial Estate, near Elmbridge Village, within your area?
Yes, sites like Littlemead Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Elmbridge Village. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
How do you handle work on occupied blocks?
We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.
How soon can the area be used again?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Why deal with it now?
Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too and occupiers notice. Around Elmbridge Village, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
A quote for mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
