How we handle mastic sealing in Shillinglee
Across Shillinglee and the rest of West Sussex, we work the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Addresses, photos of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote or we can visit. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, external wall and movement joints and communal entrances and stairwells, and what we are called in for most is old repairs sealed over failed mastic and movement joints with sealant missing. Searching for sealant specialists in Shillinglee? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Rural conversions near places like Shillinglee often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

How the job changes by surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Blocks have a mix of frame materials, so the grade we pick has to bond to frame and wall alike. Colours are confirmed for the product used.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Mixed-use buildings combine shops below with flats or offices above, so phasing has to suit both. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Shillinglee
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Shillinglee. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Why act early in Shillinglee
Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes and those cost far more to put right. Converted and older buildings near places like Shillinglee tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote.

Signs you need mastic sealing in Shillinglee
Poor preparation explains many failed joints. Without clean, sound faces and a primer where the product needs one, the bead peels off one side.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Failed external movement joints
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- Damp patches beside frames
Owners near Shillinglee can renew frame and external mastic block by block on one programme.
Before you book anyone

- What site paperwork they can supply
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
Our process
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. For work around Shillinglee, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
Quotes
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
Related advice
After the work
For the best life from the joints:
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- Group repairs into a planned programme
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Track which buildings were done and when
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges, and note the building and elevation.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. We can quote buildings in priority order and work down the list.
