How we handle mastic sealing in Tourner Bury
We diagnose before we prescribe: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. Failed mastic is stripped, the faces taken back to sound material, primed where the manufacturer specifies and resealed and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. We work on balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and communal entrances and stairwells, and the failures we are asked to look at most are window mastic that has split and shrunk and occupiers reporting cold air round windows. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Tourner Bury, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In and around smaller places like Tourner Bury, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Tourner Bury: questions and answers
We manage a building near Warblington station. Can you help?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Can being near the sea in Tourner Bury affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned and we will confirm the approach in the quote.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
How soon can the area be used again?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
How long does a job like this take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
When something else is needed
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.

On site: what to expect

Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Jobs in and around smaller places like Tourner Bury are usually planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.

- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.

Mastic sealing around Tourner Bury: what changes locally
With the shore within about 1 mile, Tourner Bury counts as a coastal location. Blocks and commercial buildings facing the sea take the most weather on their window perimeters and external joints; plan inspections around that. There are four care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Tourner Bury. Care home owners need frame and external mastic kept sound without unsettling residents.
Older community buildings, St Mary's Church among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. Site managers at schools like Mengham Junior School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.

What we are called out for in Tourner Bury
The edges of the material itself sometimes break away, such as crumbling render, brick arrises or frame edges. We will tell you if the joint edges need repairing before resealing.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- Water getting in round frames after rain
Landlords with units on estates such as Furniss Business Centre (to the west of Tourner Bury) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

- How they’ll work around occupants

How the quote is worked out
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Access and working height
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- The total length or number of joints
- Joint width, depth and condition
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Before you send an enquiry
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- When you need the work done
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
