Mastic sealing across Frithend
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
What sealant work can’t fix
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Shopfronts below residential blocks

Block-wide mastic in Frithend
Rainfall across the South East, Frithend included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are usually where frame mastic ages first. Frithend is about 40 miles from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
If you look after a block within reach of Bentley (Hampshire) station, 1.9 miles to the north-west of Frithend, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. Property owners at sites such as Blacknest Industrial Park, 1.3 miles north-west of Frithend, can have mastic renewed between lettings. If you manage student housing near a university such as University for the Creative Arts (4.6 miles north-east of Frithend), the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.

Surface by surface
Communal areas
Entrance doors, screens and corridor junctions in communal areas all have sealant joints. Fresh joints make shared areas look looked after.
Tenement and older buildings
Older buildings, including Scotland’s sandstone tenements, have their own joint details. We look at the substrate before choosing a sealant.
What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Access and working height
- Travel to remote or island sites
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Sending details for a quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Your programme or deadline
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Your questions answered
We manage a building near Bentley (Hampshire) station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we’ll quote and plan to suit.
Is Frithend too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Frithend are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
Owners, agents and contractors
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
Aftercare for building managers
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. Early reports catch failures before damage spreads.
Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. Doing them together saves going back again and again.
