Mastic sealing in Sandhurst

Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Signs you need mastic sealing in Sandhurst

Many failed joints were sealed without backing rod so the mastic is bonded on three sides. That three-sided adhesion stops it stretching and it tears.

These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:

  • Failed external movement joints
  • Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
  • Draughts at frames across a block
  • Old repairs sealed over failed mastic

Older community buildings, Mission Church among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

What your quote should include

  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • Proof of insurance
  • Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?

Our contractor checklist

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Sandhurst

Before work starts, most agents and landlords want the documents in order. For documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We’re a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and we carry public liability insurance. The enquiries we see most involve open joints in brickwork or panels and old repairs sealed over failed mastic, across balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and shopfronts below residential blocks. Most enquiries from Sandhurst start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

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

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. If an installation problem shows up, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

We follow your site rules from the start: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. Once we are cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. For a building around Sandhurst, 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. We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
  2. We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
  3. The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

Preparing the site

  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
  • Warn occupants and staff about the work

Advice

Common questions from Sandhurst clients

Is Sandhurst too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Will you take on work at estates like Bodiam Business Park, close to Sandhurst?

Yes. Our area takes in Sandhurst and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Bodiam Business Park included. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

What do you charge?

Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with a description of the work.

How soon can the area be used again?

We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.

Is any job too small?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

Can you seal joints high up on a block?

Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we’ll confirm the approach in the quote.

Will you come and look before quoting?

That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.

What sealant work can’t fix

A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:

  • Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
  • Materials that need asbestos testing before work
  • Substrate edges that need repairing first

If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.

What we seal

  • External wall and movement joints
  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Communal entrances and stairwells
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks

Surface by surface

Window and door perimeters on blocks

We usually work through a block’s windows in a planned order. Access is agreed with you before the quote is fixed.

External movement joints

External movement joints take up expansion and contraction. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.

When to bring in a specialist

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.

Owners, agents and contractors

If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

Block-wide mastic in Sandhurst

At about 43 miles from central London, Sandhurst is within reach of the capital. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property; their frame mastic often ages block-wide. Rainfall across the South East, Sandhurst included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building usually need attention first.

For owners of several units at places like Bodiam Business Park, 2.4 miles south-west of Sandhurst, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. For a school such as Sandhurst Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.

Sandhurst is about 11 miles north of Hastings, in Kent. Across the TN18 postcode area, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Sandhurst is one of 931 places in Kent on our list. Brighton is covered too, around 33 miles from Sandhurst.
