How we handle mastic sealing in Turville

Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover and it slowly wears out: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow along with complaints. If you have old repairs sealed over failed mastic and estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out, we can help, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Turville, the brief is normally the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

For owners with a single building near Turville, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Send photos of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

When something else is needed

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:

  • Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
  • Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
  • Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints

Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly.

  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Balcony and threshold joints

Questions we are asked in Turville

Is Turville off your patch?

No. Places such as Turville are covered as much as the big towns. 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.

What documents will you need to give us for a job in Turville?

RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we carry £5m public liability insurance.

How do we ask for a quote?

There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.

Can you plan resealing across several buildings?

Yes. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order starting wherever is most urgent.

Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?

Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.

How soon can the area be used again?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.

Will you quote for a small job?

Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Photos and a description are enough to start.

After the work

Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:

  • Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
  • Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
  • Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first

Include sealant in planned building inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges, and note the building and elevation.

Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. A programme can start with the worst buildings so spending is spread.

Our process

Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Smaller jobs around Turville can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You’ll 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. The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
  4. Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm 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.

What we need from you

  • Arrange parking or a loading space
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Flag any permit to work we will need

What happens if it’s left?

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 Turville, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Why us?

  • CSCS-carded applicators
  • Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
  • Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
  • Fully insured, including public liability cover

Surface by surface

Communal areas

Communal areas stay in use while we work. We work in sections so access is never blocked.

Planned maintenance

How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.

Common problems we fix in Turville

UV and rain age external sealant. It stiffens, stops stretching and cracks most of all on the sunniest and most exposed elevations.

Things that normally lead to an enquiry:

  • Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
  • Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
  • A mix of products and colours from past repairs
  • Leaks at window and door perimeters

Churches, halls and community buildings such as Church of St Mary are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.

Before you book anyone

  • Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
  • Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
  • Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Mastic sealing in Turville: the local picture

Rainfall across the South East, Turville included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first. Central London is about 35 miles from Turville. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.

Older buildings near Turville, from historic houses such as Stonor Park, 2 miles south-west of Turville, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. If your remit includes a building such as Ibstone CofE Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.
