Mastic sealing in Great Burgh
Treatment starts with a proper look: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. Failed mastic is stripped, the faces taken back to sound material, primed where the manufacturer specifies and resealed, with backing rod setting the depth where it’s needed. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, shopfronts below residential blocks and communal entrances and stairwells, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are open joints in brickwork or panels and worn sealant at communal door frames. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Great Burgh it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Places the size of Great Burgh normally have some housing association stock, small blocks and mixed-use buildings. The mastic around their frames and external joints ages like anywhere else.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Surface by surface
Communal areas
We keep entrances and stairs open throughout. We work in sections so access is never blocked.
External movement joints
Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.
Honest limits
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Block-wide mastic in Great Burgh
There are six care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Great Burgh. For owners and operators of care buildings, window perimeters and external joints are best renewed in planned phases around residents. Great Burgh sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.
For a school such as Shawley Community Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Landlords with units on estates such as Eclipse Industrial Estate, 2.4 miles to the north-west of Great Burgh, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

What we are called out for in Great Burgh
Buildings move with temperature and moisture, and the sealant takes up that movement. A joint that was too narrow, too thin or the wrong product can’t cope long before it should.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
Buildings close to stations like Tattenham Corner station (under half a mile west of Great Burgh) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.

Advice
General trades versus a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Great Burgh: questions and answers
Is Eclipse Industrial Estate, near Great Burgh, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Great Burgh, Eclipse Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can work in a care setting near Great Burgh go ahead while residents are there?
Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. We follow the home’s own procedures throughout.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Will you quote for a small job?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.
