Honest limits
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Glazing that needs replacing
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- External wall and movement joints
Mastic sealing in Little Posbrook, done properly
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. Site teams most often ask us about old repairs sealed over failed mastic and open joints in brickwork or panels, across communal entrances and stairwells, communal kitchens and washrooms and window and door perimeters on blocks. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Little Posbrook first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Little Posbrook tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
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.

Related advice
For owners and agents in Little Posbrook
With the shore within about 1 mile, Little Posbrook counts as a coastal location. Sea-facing elevations take driven rain and salt, and their mastic shows it before the sheltered sides do; plan inspections around that. Little Posbrook sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first.
Older community buildings, Church of St Peter among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. For agents with blocks near Fareham station (2.6 miles north-east of Little Posbrook), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.

Questions we are asked in Little Posbrook
Is Kite's Croft Business Park, near Little Posbrook, within your area?
Yes, sites like Kite's Croft Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Little Posbrook. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
We manage a building near Fareham station. Can you help?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
Every block is different. We agree access with you at quote stage so the fixed quote reflects it.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Residents and tenants carry on as normal. If any flats or units need access, we’ll tell you in advance so you can arrange it with occupiers.
Should maintenance staff do it?
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
