Mastic sealing in Lullington, done properly
Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. Dates, areas and the order of work are agreed with you in advance, giving you what you need to notify residents. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use while we work. The enquiries we see most involve draughts at frames across a block and no planned programme for sealant, on external wall and movement joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and shopfronts below residential blocks. Searching for sealant specialists in Lullington? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Lullington 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.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Broken glass or failed sealed units

Do you need mastic sealing in Lullington?
Topping up old mastic is a common shortcut. New silicone has nothing to grip on old silicone, so these repairs rarely last.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- Damp patches beside frames
If you manage student housing near a university such as University of Brighton, which lies west of Lullington, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.

How the job changes by surface
External movement joints
Joint size and product are matched to the expected movement, often around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises.
Tenement and older buildings
Traditional buildings have joints that need a careful approach. The material either side of the joint shapes the product choice.
Mastic sealing around Lullington: how the place shapes the job
The sea is no more than about 3 miles from Lullington. On buildings near the shore, the side facing the weather normally needs its mastic renewed first. Lullington lies roughly 49 miles out from central London. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
If your remit includes a building such as Alfriston School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Trustees of buildings like Church of St. Andrew can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.

Questions about Lullington
Do you cover business parks and estates near Lullington, such as Berwick Court Farm Business Park?
Yes. Our area takes in Lullington and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Berwick Court Farm Business Park included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you quote for a block close to Berwick (Sussex) station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
What paperwork can you provide?
Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. Buildings are scheduled in turn so you can plan around it.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.
Doing it in-house
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
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 where general trades tend to cut corners.
