Mastic sealing in Thorpe, done properly

We work for building owners, landlords with commercial or block portfolios, managing agents and housing associations. Many prefer a planned programme to one-off visits and we quote and schedule each building in turn. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, balcony and threshold joints and shopfronts below residential blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings. Most enquiries from Thorpe 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 Thorpe, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Do you need mastic sealing in Thorpe?

Communal entrances and corridors see a lot of wear, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Cleaning products add to the wear.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
  • Leaks at window and door perimeters
  • Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
  • Draught complaints from residents or tenants

Student blocks close to universities like Royal Holloway University, 1.8 miles to the north-west of Thorpe, are easiest to work on between tenancies.

What your quote should include

  • Proof of insurance
  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?

How to choose a sealant contractor

After the work

After handover, these steps help:

  • Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
  • Prioritise elevations facing the weather
  • Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
  • Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early

Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over unless told otherwise.

Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and saves internal repairs.

FAQs: Thorpe

Do you cover business parks and estates near Thorpe, such as Egham Business Park?

Yes, sites like Egham Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Thorpe. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.

Will you work in a care home in Thorpe without moving residents out?

Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.

Do you take on small jobs?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

Is Thorpe in your area?

Yes. Thorpe falls within our area, and the simplest way to start is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Is mastic sealing guaranteed?

There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, backed by public liability insurance.

How much does the work cost?

That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote and we’ll price it properly.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.

Quoting for work in Thorpe

What shapes the price:

  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Location, for remote and island sites

No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

What to include in your enquiry

However big the job, these details speed things up:

  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • The product your specification calls for
  • Clear photos of the problem areas

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

Owners, agents and contractors

Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.

Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

What the job involves on each 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.

Communal areas

We keep entrances and stairs open throughout. Work is planned in sections.

On site: what to expect

In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. If others near Thorpe need work, visits can be combined. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
  2. A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
  3. Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
