Mastic sealing in Milford

Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

From enquiry to sign-off

Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we’re cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact. Work in places the size of Milford is planned as a single visit where we can. Clear photographs and measurements help us bring the right products.

  1. First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
  2. The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
  3. Failed mastic is removed completely.
  4. The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
  5. We finish each building before moving to the next.

What we need from you

  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Flag any permit to work we’ll need
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

How we handle mastic sealing in Milford

Treatment starts with a proper look: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. 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. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, external wall and movement joints and balcony and threshold joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors and water getting in round frames after rain. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Milford is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

In a smaller place such as Milford, 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.

Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Aftercare for building managers

To get the most from the new sealant:

  • List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
  • Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
  • Keep a record of when each building was resealed
  • Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint

If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.

One failed perimeter normally means others on the same building are close, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.

What the job involves on each surface

Planned maintenance

We can work into your cyclical maintenance plan, building by building.

Communal areas

Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Fresh joints make shared areas look looked after.

Common questions from Milford clients

Do you cover business parks and estates near Milford, such as Godalming Business Centre?

Yes. We cover Milford and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Godalming Business Centre. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.

We manage a building near Milford (Surrey) station. Can you help?

Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.

Will residents or tenants be disturbed?

We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers, and entrances stay in use.

Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?

Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.

Does the weather affect the work?

It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

Can you seal joints high up on a block?

Every block is different. We agree access with you at quote stage so there are no surprises.

For owners and agents in Milford

Milford sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. Milford lies roughly 33 miles out from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property.

If you are responsible for a building such as St John the Evangelist's Church, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property. If you manage student housing near a university such as University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus, which lies north of Milford, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic. Schools and community buildings such as Milford School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building.

What affects the price in Milford

Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we take into account:

  • How much there is to seal
  • Working within restricted access windows
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Removal of failed or old sealant

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.

Sending details for a quote

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:

  • Clear photos of the problem areas
  • The postcode of the building
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • What the building is and how it’s used

Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.

When to bring in a specialist

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Certain joints really need a specialist: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.

When something else is needed

We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:

  • Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
  • Substrate edges that need repairing first
  • Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter

If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.

What we seal

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