Common questions from Potter's Green clients
We manage a building near Buxted station. Can you help?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
Is a smaller place like Potter's Green outside your area?
Not at all. Potter's Green is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Residents and tenants carry on as normal. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so it can be arranged.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn starting wherever is most urgent.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
How we handle mastic sealing in Potter's Green
We diagnose before we prescribe: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. Failed mastic is stripped, the faces taken back to sound material, primed where the manufacturer specifies and resealed and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and communal kitchens and washrooms, and the failures we are asked to look at most are water getting in round frames after rain and movement joints with sealant missing. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Potter's Green? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Rural conversions near places like Potter's Green 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.
Work we carry out in East Sussex comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Do you need mastic sealing in Potter's Green?
Previous repairs often sealed new mastic over old. New sealant won’t grip failed sealant, so these repairs rarely last.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
If your remit includes a building such as Buxted CofE Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
Looking after the joints
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Log resealing dates block by block
If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.
Should maintenance staff do it?
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

On site: what to expect
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. Jobs in and around smaller places like Potter's Green are normally planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Preparing the site

Advice
What sets the cost
What shapes the price:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The total length or number of joints
- Travel to remote or island sites
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Details that help us quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- When you need the work done
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- The product your specification calls for
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
What we can’t put right
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
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.
