Mastic sealing across Warminghurst
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
From enquiry to sign-off
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. If others near Warminghurst need work, visits can be combined. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Advice
How we handle mastic sealing in Warminghurst
Treatment starts with a proper look: what has failed, what caused it and whether new sealant will actually solve it. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, shopfronts below residential blocks and communal kitchens and washrooms, and the failures we are asked to look at most are no planned programme for sealant and draught complaints from residents or tenants. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Warminghurst is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In and around smaller places like Warminghurst, 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.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Your questions answered
Can you work at a site such as Crays Court (business park), by Warminghurst?
Yes. Our area takes in Warminghurst and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Crays Court (business park) included. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Warminghurst too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Can people stay in the building while you reseal?
We plan around people living or working in the building. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told, and entrances stay in use.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Can you quote from photos?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs usually get a visit.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place, and we will tell you how we’d approach it.

Mastic sealing around Warminghurst: how the place shapes the job
Rainfall across the South East, Warminghurst included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. At about 41 miles from central London, Warminghurst is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.
With historic buildings such as Parham House, 3.9 miles to the south-west of Warminghurst, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Warminghurst should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry. If your remit includes a building such as Ashington CofE Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

When to call us in Warminghurst
We often find joints filled solid with no backing rod so the mastic is bonded on three sides. It can’t stretch properly and splits as the building moves.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Pulborough station (to the west of Warminghurst) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.
Before you book anyone
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Who will actually carry out the work
- How the existing material will be dealt with
After the work
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over unless told otherwise.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.
What the job involves on each surface
External movement joints
Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Where retail and residential share a building, so phasing has to suit both. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
What happens if it’s left?
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows and occupiers notice. Around Warminghurst, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
