Different surfaces, different methods

Tenement and older buildings

Stone needs a neutral-cure product, so we pick a grade that won’t mark it.

Planned maintenance

We can work into your cyclical maintenance plan on a timetable you set.

For managing agents and facilities managers

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Common problems we fix in Eridge Green

We often find joints filled solid with no backing rod so the mastic is bonded on three sides. It can’t stretch properly and it tears.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
  • Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
  • Movement joints with sealant missing
  • Old repairs sealed over failed mastic

Trustees of buildings like Holy Trinity Church can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
  • How they’ll work around occupants
  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • Their pre-qualification and accreditations

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Our process

Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we’re cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it. Rural sites near Eridge Green may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.

  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 sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

Before we start on site

  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Let us know about inductions and permits

Request a quote

The quickest route to a quote is a few photos and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to discuss it first.

Frames, entrances and external joints in Eridge Green

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first. Central London is about 31 miles from Eridge Green. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.

With historic buildings such as Groombridge Place, 1.9 miles to the north-west of Eridge Green, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Eridge Green should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry. If you manage student housing near a university such as Canterbury Christ Church University - Salomons, 3.8 miles to the north of Eridge Green, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.

Eridge Green is about 3 miles south-west of Royal Tunbridge Wells, in East Sussex. Anywhere in TN3, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. We work across 308 places in East Sussex. Our Brighton page has more on work in that area (24 miles or so).

After the work

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
  • Start inspections with the most exposed faces
  • Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
  • List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details

Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.

Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. A programme can start with the worst buildings and work down the list.

Eridge Green: questions and answers

Is a smaller place like Eridge Green outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

We manage a building near Eridge station. Can you help?

Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?

Yes. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords, and we quote building by building or as a programme.

How do you choose the sealant?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.

Do you guarantee the mastic work?

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

When it isn’t the sealant

Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:

  • Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
  • Substrate edges that need repairing first
  • Misted or failed double-glazed units

Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
