Mastic sealing in Goose Green
There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many window perimeters and external movement joints, and MS polymer sealants stick well to many substrates and often take paint. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product. We work on balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are no planned programme for sealant and brittle perimeter mastic across a building. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Goose Green, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For buildings around smaller places like Goose Green, we group work so one trip covers it. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Planned mastic for Goose Green portfolios
Rainfall across the South East, Goose Green included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. At about 40 miles from central London, Goose Green is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres.
Historic properties like Parham House, 4.5 miles to the south-west of Goose Green, show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone. If your remit includes a building such as Rydon Community College, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Buildings close to stations like Billingshurst station (to the north-west of Goose Green) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.
Goose Green is about 9 miles south-west of Horsham, in West Sussex. We send applicators to Goose Green for mastic joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Goose Green: questions and answers
Does your area include sites such as Crays Court (business park), near Goose Green?
Yes. We cover Goose Green and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Crays Court (business park). To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you quote for a block close to Billingshurst station?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
We can. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order, and the programme can start with the worst.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it and suspect material is tested first.
Can people stay in the building while you reseal?
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.
Different surfaces, different methods
Tenement and older buildings
Stone needs a neutral-cure product and we choose accordingly.
Communal areas
Joints at low level in communal areas take knocks from bins, bikes and buggies and tend to fail first.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. For work around Goose Green, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Getting the site ready
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Make sure the joints can be reached
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Related advice
Maintenance after handover
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we’ll look at it. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.
Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Resealing early keeps the job small.
What we can’t put right
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We’ll tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think.
