Common questions from Pickhurst clients
Is Pickhurst too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Pickhurst is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Pickhurst, such as Broomers Hill Business Park?
Yes, sites like Broomers Hill Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Pickhurst. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
There are four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.
Can people stay in the building while you reseal?
The work is planned around occupiers. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers, and entrances stay in use.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
Yes. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn, and the programme can start with the worst.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
Mastic sealing in Pickhurst
Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint and we quote and schedule each building in turn. Most enquiries involve water getting in round frames after rain and mastic failing across several blocks on an estate, on external wall and movement joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Pickhurst, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
In and around smaller places like Pickhurst, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Why deal with it now?
Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. Older rural buildings around Pickhurst move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

Mastic sealing around Pickhurst: what changes locally
Pickhurst is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first. Pickhurst is about 40 miles from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres.
Property owners at sites such as Broomers Hill Business Park (1.1 miles east of Pickhurst) can have mastic renewed between lettings. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Pulborough station, 1.4 miles south of Pickhurst, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. Historic properties like Old Place Manor (1.2 miles south of Pickhurst) show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone.
Pickhurst is about 11 miles south-west of Horsham, in West Sussex. If you’re looking for mastic sealing in Pickhurst, we can help, as we do across West Sussex. We work across 373 places in West Sussex, large and small. Sites around Brighton have their own page, about 20 miles away.
Postcode districts covered here: RH20. We also cover Pulborough (1 mile south-east), Bedham (2 miles west), Hardham (2 miles south), Fittleworth (2 miles south-west) and Lower Horncroft (3 miles south-west).

For rail, the closest station is Pulborough station, about 1.4 miles south of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Coates Castle (3.6 miles south-west). Green spaces nearby include The Mens.
General trades versus a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Smaller jobs around Pickhurst can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

What the job involves on each surface
Estate-wide resealing programmes
An estate of similar buildings suits a rolling programme. Each block is priced and scheduled in order.
Planned maintenance
Resealing can be scheduled alongside other planned works, building by building.
Aftercare for building managers
After handover, these steps help:
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.
