Mastic sealing in The Sands, done properly
Across The Sands 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. Addresses, photographs of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote, and site visits can be arranged. If you’re dealing with leaks at window and door perimeters and old repairs sealed over failed mastic, we can help. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in The Sands from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Rural conversions near places like The Sands often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Surrey. If an installation problem shows up, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Leave it or put it right?
Adding sealant to cyclical maintenance is an easy win. Waiting until leaks appear means working under pressure and less choice about when. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like The Sands. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.

Advice
Questions we are asked in The Sands
Is The Sands too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. 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.
We manage a building near Farnham station. Can you help?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship and we hold public liability insurance.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
It depends on the building. We agree access with you at quote stage so the fixed quote reflects it.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
Yes. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order starting wherever is most urgent.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Balcony and threshold joints
- External wall and movement joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
Surface by surface
External movement joints
External movement joints take up expansion and contraction. Failed sealant in a movement joint lets water in.
Planned maintenance
Mastic wears out like any building component; how fast comes down to movement, weather, UV and the product. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.
Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Share your contractor requirements early
Keep bins, bikes and deliveries away from low-level joints where you can. Knocks cause many early failures in communal areas.
Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.
