How we handle mastic sealing in Fetcham
Across Fetcham and the rest of Surrey, we work the same way: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. Addresses, photographs of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote or we can visit. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and window and door perimeters on blocks, and the failures we are asked to look at most are draught complaints from residents or tenants and failed external movement joints. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Fetcham is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Older buildings and conversions around places like Fetcham mix old masonry with newer frames. The mastic there needs to suit both surfaces.
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.

Planned mastic for Fetcham portfolios
Fetcham has two care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Owners of care premises can bring window and door mastic into a phased programme planned around the home. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.
Site managers at schools like Oakfield Junior School can fit frame mastic into the summer works. Buildings close to stations like Leatherhead station, 1.2 miles to the north-east of Fetcham, are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.
Fetcham is about 5 miles south-west of Epsom, in Surrey. Our applicators travel to Fetcham for work on mastic joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Fetcham is one of 379 places in Surrey on our list for mastic joints. There’s a separate page for London, about 18 miles away.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. What matters most for a job in Fetcham is a clear list of what needs doing, so send photographs of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- 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.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
Before we start on site
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use

Fetcham: questions and answers
Do you work in occupied care homes around Fetcham?
Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Leatherhead station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Which sealant will you use?
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.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned, and we will tell you how we’d approach it.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
We can. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn, and the programme can start with the worst.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes a few days for most blocks, with larger programmes scheduled building by building. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.

Common problems we fix in Fetcham
Much failed sealant was laid on dirty, dusty or damp surfaces. Where the faces weren’t cleaned or primed as specified it comes away from one face.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- Failed external movement joints
If you manage student housing near a university such as University for the Creative Arts, which lies north-east of Fetcham, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.

What the job involves on each surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Frames vary from uPVC to aluminium and timber, and the product is matched to the frame material and the masonry. Colours are confirmed for the product used.
Planned maintenance
Mastic wears out like any building component; how fast comes down to movement, weather, UV and the product. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.
What sealant work can’t fix
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
