Questions about Puttenham

Is Puttenham too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Will you take on a block within reach of Wanborough station?

Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.

What if the old mastic contains asbestos?

In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it and suspect material is tested first.

How long will the new sealant last?

There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.

Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?

Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. Buildings are scheduled in turn with dates agreed in advance.

How many days will you need on site?

That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.

What paperwork can you provide?

Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Puttenham

Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover and it slowly wears out: it sits round windows and doors, along external joints and through communal areas. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow along with complaints. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and balcony and threshold joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are mastic failing across several blocks on an estate and a mix of products and colours from past repairs. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Puttenham it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Puttenham tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Keeping the joints sound

For the best life from the joints:

  • Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
  • Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
  • List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
  • Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames

Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. That makes future programmes easier to plan and shows what was done.

Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. Doing them together saves going back again and again.

Why deal with it now?

Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish and one 12-month guarantee. Converted and older buildings near places like Puttenham tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you’re ready.

What the job involves on each surface

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Tenants in commercial buildings need to keep trading, so we plan around them.

Window and door perimeters on blocks

On most blocks, the frame-to-wall joint is where failure shows first. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Puttenham

Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.

Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

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:

  • Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
  • Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
  • Glazing that needs replacing

If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Communal entrances and stairwells
  • Balcony and threshold joints

Advice

Looking after buildings in and around Puttenham

At about 32 miles from central London, Puttenham is within reach of the capital. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first.

Schools and community buildings such as Puttenham CofE Infant School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building. If you manage student housing near a university such as University of Surrey - Manor Park Campus, 3 miles east of Puttenham, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic. For agents with blocks near Wanborough station, 1.6 miles to the north of Puttenham, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.
