Mastic sealing in Rowledge

Across Rowledge and the rest of Surrey, we work the same way: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. A list of buildings, a few photographs and approximate joint numbers are enough for a quick quote, and site visits can be arranged. We work on external wall and movement joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and shopfronts below residential blocks, and what we’re called in for most is leaks at window and door perimeters and repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings. Whoever orders the work in Rowledge, the brief is normally the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

For owners with a single building near Rowledge, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Block-wide mastic in Rowledge

Rowledge is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside work still depends on dry joints, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first. Rowledge lies roughly 38 miles out from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.

If you’re responsible for a building such as Saint James, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property. If you manage student housing near a university such as University for the Creative Arts, 2.4 miles to the north of Rowledge, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.

Rowledge is about 2 miles south-west of Farnham, in Surrey. Our applicators travel to Rowledge for work on mastic joints. Rowledge is one of 379 places in Surrey on our list. Sites around Reading have their own page, about 19 miles away.

Work on mastic joints is covered throughout GU10, whatever the building. Buildings on High Street, Chapel Road and Bell Lane are within our area for mastic joints. We also cover Holt Pound (1 mile west), Boundstone (1 mile north-east), Wrecclesham (1 mile north), Shortheath (1 mile north-east) and Batt's Corner (1 mile south) for mastic joints. Bigger towns within reach include Guildford (12 miles east), Woking (14 miles north-east), Camberley (11 miles north), Frimley (10 miles north-east), Haslemere (8 miles south-east) and Cranleigh (15 miles east).

The countryside around Rowledge includes Beacon Hill and Farnham Heath.

On site: what to expect

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. We sign and contain the area we are in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. For a building around Rowledge, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.

  1. Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
  2. A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
  3. The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
  4. We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Agree which areas must stay open
  • Arrange parking or a loading space

Advice

Keeping the joints sound

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:

  • Share the asbestos register when you send details
  • Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
  • Group repairs into a planned programme
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first

If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over unless told otherwise.

Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and saves internal repairs.

Cost factors for mastic joints

These are the things that shape the price:

  • The size and state of each joint
  • Access and working height
  • Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
  • Which sealant the job calls for

No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Before you send an enquiry

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:

  • What the building is and how it’s used
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Your questions answered

Is a smaller place like Rowledge outside your area?

Not at all. Rowledge is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Bentley (Hampshire) station?

Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.

How do you reach windows on upper floors?

It depends on the building. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so the fixed quote reflects it.

Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?

Yes. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work, and we quote building by building or as a programme.

How long do sealant joints last?

It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.

What the job involves on each surface

Window and door perimeters on blocks

Frames vary from uPVC to aluminium and timber, and the product is matched to the frame material and the masonry. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.

Planned maintenance

Adding mastic to planned maintenance avoids reactive repairs and spreads the work.

General trades versus a specialist

Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Common problems we fix in Rowledge

Much failed sealant was laid on dirty, dusty or damp surfaces. Where the faces weren’t cleaned or primed as specified it comes away from one face.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
  • Open joints in brickwork or panels
  • Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
  • Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate

For a school such as Rowledge Church of England Controlled Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.
