Mastic sealing in Morton
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. If you are dealing with draughts at frames across a block and open joints in brickwork or panels, we can help, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Morton, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For owners with a single building near Morton, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Your questions answered
Our building in Morton is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Is Spithead Business Centre, near Morton, within your area?
Yes. We cover Morton and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Spithead Business Centre. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
How much does the work cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.
Do you take on small jobs?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work usually takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go.

What happens if it’s left?
Draughts round window perimeters cost occupiers comfort and the windows normally get the blame. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it when the frames themselves are sound. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Morton. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
Cost factors for mastic joints
Before we quote, we look at:
- How much there is to seal
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Distance, for remote addresses
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Details that help us quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- When you need the work done
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Planned mastic for Morton portfolios
Morton lies within about 1 mile of the sea. On buildings near the shore, the side facing the weather normally needs its mastic renewed first; plan inspections around that. Morton sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.
Older buildings near Morton, from historic houses such as Morton Manor (0.1 miles north-east of Morton) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. For agents with blocks near Brading station, 0.6 miles to the north-east of Morton, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. Older community buildings, St. Mary's Church among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.
Morton is about 1 mile north-east of Sandown, in the Isle of Wight. Commercial clients in Morton use us for work on mastic joints. Morton is one of 125 places we cover in the Isle of Wight. For work in that direction, see our Portsmouth page.
Work on mastic joints is covered throughout PO36, for business premises of every kind. Streets here include New Road, Wrax Road and Morton Road. Being close to the A3055, Morton is straightforward for us to reach. We also cover Yarbridge (1 mile north-east), Brading (1 mile north-east), Adgestone (1 mile west), Yaverland (1 mile south-east) and Sandown (1 mile south-west) for mastic joints. Bigger towns within reach include Newport (7 miles west), Ryde (4 miles north), Cowes (9 miles north-west), Shanklin (3 miles south-west), Ventnor (6 miles south-west) and East Cowes (8 miles north-west). Island and remote sites need extra planning, with travel, ferry crossings where needed and weather to allow for, so mention the location when you phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

What the job involves on each surface
Planned maintenance
Adding mastic to planned maintenance avoids reactive repairs and spreads the work.
External movement joints
The joint width has to suit the movement and the sealant’s capability with the width-to-depth ratio set as the manufacturer advises.
Aftercare for building managers
After handover, these steps help:
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Log resealing dates block by block
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings so spending is spread.
