Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Doing it in-house
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Furzeley Corner
Owners and agents typically inherit a building’s mastic rather than choose it, and it ages quietly: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. Once it cracks, hardens or comes away, draughts and water find a way in, and occupiers start reporting it. Site teams most often ask us about draughts at frames across a block and damp patches beside frames, across shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and window and door perimeters on blocks. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Furzeley Corner first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In and around smaller places like Furzeley Corner, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For work around Furzeley Corner, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.

Advice
Questions about Furzeley Corner
Will you take on a block within reach of Cosham station?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
Is Furzeley Corner too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Furzeley Corner is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Mastic sealing around Furzeley Corner: what changes locally
Furzeley Corner lies within about 3 miles of the sea. Blocks and commercial buildings facing the sea take the most weather on their window perimeters and external joints, so it’s worth inspecting those sides more often. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first.
Schools and community buildings such as Denmead Junior School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building. For agents with blocks near Cosham station, which lies south of Furzeley Corner, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.

Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
Encourage occupiers to report water or draughts at frames. Early reports catch failures before damage spreads.
Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Resealing early keeps the job small.

What else we do in Furzeley Corner
What we can’t put right
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units

If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
What we’re called out for in Furzeley Corner
Previous repairs often sealed new mastic over old. New silicone has nothing to grip on old silicone, so these repairs rarely last.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
Property owners at sites such as Parklands Business Park (to the north of Furzeley Corner) can have mastic renewed between lettings.
