Common questions from Tilford Common clients
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Farnham station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Does your area include sites such as The Sands Business Centre, near Tilford Common?
Yes. We cover Tilford Common and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as The Sands Business Centre. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
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, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
Do you work in Tilford Common?
Yes. Sites across Tilford Common are covered.
Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Tilford Common
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If you have old repairs sealed over failed mastic and leaks at window and door perimeters, we can put it right, on shopfronts below residential blocks, external wall and movement joints and balcony and threshold joints alike. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Tilford Common, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Tilford Common tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
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.

Common problems we fix in Tilford Common
Sunlight and weather break mastic down over time. The surface chalks, the body stiffens and cracks appear, especially on south and west faces.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
- Movement joints with sealant missing
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
For agents with blocks near Farnham station, which lies north-west of Tilford Common, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.
What your quote should include
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- The named product and why it was chosen
After the work
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
Encourage occupiers to report water or draughts at frames. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and saves internal repairs.
Mastic sealing around Tilford Common: how the place shapes the job
At about 36 miles from central London, Tilford Common is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide. Tilford Common sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first.
Trustees of buildings like Church of All Saints can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list. If your remit includes a building such as All Saints CofE Aided Infant School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.
Tilford Common is about 3 miles south-east of Farnham, in Surrey. Our applicators travel to Tilford Common for work on mastic joints. 379 places across Surrey fall within our area, including Tilford Common. We also cover Reading, some 21 miles away.

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 move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. Jobs in and around smaller places like Tilford Common are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs 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.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.
Where we work in Tilford Common
- Shopfronts below residential blocks

- Communal kitchens and washrooms
Leave it or put it right?
Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. A planned programme treats each building once and is simpler to manage and budget. Around Tilford Common, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
Why appoint us
- Constructionline member for supplier checks
- 12 months’ guarantee on every job
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product

Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Where retail and residential share a building the programme has to suit everyone. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Fresh joints make shared areas look looked after.
