Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Hattingley

Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you, giving you what you need to notify residents. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use throughout. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and window and door perimeters on blocks, and what we’re called in for most is the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and open joints in brickwork or panels. Searching for sealant specialists in Hattingley? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.

Rural conversions near places like Hattingley often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.

Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will come back to it.

What sets the cost

Before we quote, we look at:

  • How much existing material needs removing
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • The total length or number of joints
  • Working within restricted access windows

Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.

Details that help us quote

The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:

  • When you need the work done
  • Where the site is, with the postcode
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • What the building is and how it’s used

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.

Why deal with it now?

A bead run over old mastic can look like a repair. It doesn’t bond and normally fails within a short time. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts. Converted and older buildings near places like Hattingley tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

Why appoint us

  • Specification-led, product-correct work
  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product
  • Constructionline member for supplier checks
  • CSCS-carded applicators

See our cost guide or how we’re accredited.

Honest limits

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:

  • Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
  • Glazing that needs replacing
  • Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods

If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • External wall and movement joints
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Communal entrances and stairwells

Looking after the joints

For the best life from the joints:

  • Log resealing dates block by block
  • Prioritise elevations facing the weather
  • Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
  • Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint

Include sealant in planned building inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.

Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.

What the job involves on each surface

Communal areas

Entrance doors, screens and corridor junctions in communal areas all have sealant joints. Tidy, sound joints keep them looking cared for.

External movement joints

External movement joints take up expansion and contraction. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.

Your questions answered

Is Hattingley too small for you to travel to?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Hattingley?

Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.

When can the area be used after sealing?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.

What if the old mastic contains asbestos?

We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.

How do you choose the sealant?

The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

Is mastic sealing guaranteed?

A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. If others near Hattingley need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  2. The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
  3. We agree the programme and dates with you.
  4. Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
  5. Joints are resealed and tooled.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

Mastic sealing around Hattingley: how the place shapes the job

At about 50 miles from central London, Hattingley is within reach of the capital. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate. Hattingley is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. 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.

Property owners at sites such as Barton Industrial Estate (1 mile north-west of Hattingley) can have mastic renewed between lettings. Historic properties like Bentworth Hall, 1.9 miles north-east of Hattingley, show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone. Site managers at schools like Medstead Church of England Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.
