About our mastic sealing in Milland

Older blocks and commercial buildings can have mastic that contains asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and communal kitchens and washrooms, and what we are called in for most is patchy repairs in mismatched sealant and worn sealant at communal door frames. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Milland tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

Rural conversions near places like Milland often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.

Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

From enquiry to sign-off

We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. If others near Milland need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
  2. You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
  3. The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
  4. Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

Questions about Milland

Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Milland?

Yes, we quote for single buildings and for programmes across several blocks. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.

Is Milland too small for you to travel to?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

When can the area be used after sealing?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.

Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?

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.

Will residents or tenants be disturbed?

Occupiers stay in the building throughout. If any flats or units need access, we’ll tell you in advance so you can arrange it with occupiers.

How do you choose the sealant?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

What the job involves on each surface

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Commercial buildings have mastic at shopfronts, entrances and external joints. A planned programme suits multi-building portfolios.

Tenement and older buildings

Older buildings, including Scotland’s sandstone tenements, have their own joint details. The material either side of the joint shapes the product choice.

Quoting for work in Milland

What shapes the price:

  • How much there is to seal
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • Travel to remote or island sites
  • Whether the work must be split into stages

Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

What we need to price the job

Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:

  • The product your specification calls for
  • Your programme or deadline
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Why deal with it now?

Reacting to every complaint means sending someone out block by block. A planned programme treats each building once and is simpler to manage and budget. For buildings around smaller places like Milland, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Why appoint us

  • One number for every site we cover
  • A range of standard colours, depending on the product
  • Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
  • Our applicators hold CSCS cards

Blocks and managed buildings in Milland

Milland lies roughly 44 miles out from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate. Milland sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first.

Schools and community buildings such as Hollycombe Primary School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building. Older buildings near Milland, from historic houses such as Cowdray House, 4.7 miles south-east of Milland, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. Buildings close to stations like Liphook station, 2.4 miles to the north of Milland, are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.

Milland is about 6 miles east of Petersfield, in West Sussex. Commercial clients in Milland use us for work on mastic joints, as part of our coverage of West Sussex. Milland is one of 373 places in West Sussex on our list. Sites around Portsmouth have their own page, about 20 miles away.

Owners, agents and contractors

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Milland can form part of a wider programme across West Sussex.

We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.

Doing it in-house

The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.

Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
