About our mastic sealing in South Nutfield
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is cut out and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If you are dealing with worn sealant at communal door frames and failed external movement joints, we can put it right. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in South Nutfield is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller places like South Nutfield, 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.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Aftercare for building managers
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Share your contractor requirements early
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Knocks cause many early failures in communal areas.
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.
Questions about South Nutfield
Is South Nutfield too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you quote for a block close to Nutfield station?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.
How soon can the area be used again?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords, and we quote building by building or as a programme.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Jobs in and around smaller places like South Nutfield are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

Advice
What sealant work can’t fix
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Block-wide mastic in South Nutfield
South Nutfield lies roughly 19 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres. South Nutfield sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.
If your remit includes a building such as Nutfield Church CofE Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. For owners of several units at places like Kingsfield Business Centre, 1.5 miles to the west of South Nutfield, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot.

Common problems we fix in South Nutfield
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and the sealant takes up that movement. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits long before it should.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- No planned programme for sealant
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Draughts at frames across a block
If you’re responsible for a building such as Christ Church, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Blocks have a mix of frame materials, and the product is matched to the frame material and the masonry. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Tenement and older buildings
Stone needs a neutral-cure product and we choose accordingly.
Leave it or put it right?
Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee and one 12-month guarantee. Older rural buildings around South Nutfield 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.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
What you get with us
- Public liability insurance in place
