Mastic sealing in Send Marsh
Older blocks and commercial buildings can have mastic that contains asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If you’re dealing with water getting in round frames after rain and no planned programme for sealant, we can help, on communal kitchens and washrooms, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks alike. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Send Marsh, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around smaller places like Send Marsh, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.

Questions we are asked in Send Marsh
Will you take on work at estates like Merrow Business Park, close to Send Marsh?
Yes, sites like Merrow Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Send Marsh. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Send Marsh too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you take on small jobs?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee and we hold public liability insurance.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it.
Looking after buildings in and around Send Marsh
Send Marsh is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions.

Send Marsh lies roughly 23 miles out from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property.
Property owners at sites such as Merrow Business Park, 2.4 miles south of Send Marsh, can have mastic renewed between lettings. Site managers at schools like Send CofE Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.

Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Window and door perimeters are where most mastic failure shows. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.
Communal areas
Joints at low level in communal areas take knocks from bins, bikes and buggies and tend to fail first.

When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
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. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too, and the complaints come with it. Older rural buildings around Send Marsh move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
