Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Heath Common
Treatment starts with a proper look: what has failed, what caused it and whether new sealant will actually solve it. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in, with backing rod setting the depth where it’s needed. Most enquiries involve a mix of products and colours from past repairs and damp patches beside frames, on balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Heath Common from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around smaller places like Heath Common, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Honest limits
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
Do you need mastic sealing in Heath Common?
Occasionally the substrate fails, not the sealant for example where render or brick edges crumble. We will tell you if the joint edges need repairing before resealing.
Look out for the following:
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Damp patches beside frames
Landlords with units on estates such as Wiston Business Park, 0.9 miles to the east of Heath Common, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

Keeping the joints sound
Regular inspection catches problems early. In particular:
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
Keep bins, bikes and deliveries away from low-level joints where you can. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and the complaints that come with it.
General trades versus a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.

Advice
Mastic sealing around Heath Common: what changes locally
Rainfall across the South East, Heath Common included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. Heath Common is about 42 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres.
Buildings close to stations like Pulborough station (to the north-west of Heath Common) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound. For a school such as Thakeham Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.
