About our mastic sealing in Little Bookham
For blocks and buildings in Little Bookham and across Surrey, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Addresses, photos of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote or we can visit. Most enquiries involve worn sealant at communal door frames and water getting in round frames after rain, on balcony and threshold joints, communal entrances and stairwells and external wall and movement joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Little Bookham, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In a smaller place such as Little Bookham, landlords and agents tend to look after small blocks, flats over shops, sheltered housing and commercial units. Their window perimeters and external joints need renewing as the mastic ages.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Common problems we fix in Little Bookham
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and every joint has to stretch and squeeze with them. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits and fails early.
Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
Schools and community buildings such as Howard of Effingham School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building.
Questions to ask before you book
- Who will actually carry out the work
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
How a job runs
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself normally taking a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Little Bookham need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Before we start on site
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Point out any areas we must not close

Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. Early reports catch failures before damage spreads.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing and the job grows.

Leave it or put it right?
Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. In a smaller place such as Little Bookham, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Quoting for work in Little Bookham

- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- How much there is to seal
- Working within restricted access windows

The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Details that help us quote
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:

- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- When you need the work done
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
It depends on the building. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so there are no surprises.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
