How we handle mastic sealing in Tillington
Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. Many prefer a planned programme to one-off visits, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. If you have damp patches beside frames and mastic failing across several blocks on an estate, we can put it right. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Tillington is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller places like Tillington, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Balcony and threshold joints
Do you need mastic sealing in Tillington?
In communal areas, joints take knocks from bins, bikes, buggies and deliveries, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Regular cleaning wears them further.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- No planned programme for sealant
Landlords with units on estates such as Hampers Common Industrial Estate, 1 mile east of Tillington, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.
Comparing quotes
- Proof of insurance
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
Why deal with it now?
Open external joints let water into walls and around frames. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes, which is harder to deal with than resealing. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Tillington, rather than one at a time. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Any access equipment needed
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Working within restricted access windows
- Joint width, depth and condition
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Details that help us quote
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- Any specification or named product
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Will you price a mastic programme across our Tillington portfolio?

How do you reach windows on upper floors?
Every block is different. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so there are no surprises.
Do you work in Tillington?

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.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Residents and tenants carry on as normal. If any flats or units need access, we will tell you in advance so it can be arranged.

Looking after buildings in and around Tillington
Tillington is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first. Central London is about 42 miles from Tillington. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
Churches, halls and community buildings such as The Parish Church of All Hallows are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time. Older buildings near Tillington, from historic houses such as Petworth House, 0.8 miles to the east of Tillington, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.
