Owners, agents and contractors
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Mastic sealing in Warninglid, done properly
Owners and agents usually inherit a building’s mastic rather than choose it 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. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, shopfronts below residential blocks and external wall and movement joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are draught complaints from residents or tenants and movement joints with sealant missing. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Warninglid first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Around smaller places like Warninglid, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Different surfaces, different methods
External movement joints
External movement joints take up expansion and contraction. Failed sealant in a movement joint lets water in.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Mixed-use buildings combine shops below with flats or offices above, so phasing has to suit both. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.
What we can’t put right
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

Why deal with it now?
Failed perimeter mastic lets cold air in around frames and the windows typically get the blame. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it where the frames themselves are sound. For buildings around smaller places like Warninglid, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
Pricing mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Working within restricted access windows
- How accessible the joints are
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Which sealant the job calls for
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
Before you send an enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Your programme or deadline
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The site address and postcode
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
FAQs: Warninglid
Do you cover business parks and estates near Warninglid, such as Crosspot Industrial Estate?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Warninglid, Crosspot Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Will you take on a block within reach of Balcombe station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
What paperwork can you provide?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
We can. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order, and the programme can start with the worst.

Yes. Sites across Warninglid are covered.
Frames, entrances and external joints in Warninglid
Warninglid sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. Warninglid lies roughly 34 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
For agents with blocks near Balcombe station (3.6 miles north-east of Warninglid), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. For owners of several units at places like Crosspot Industrial Estate, which lies south of Warninglid, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. With historic buildings such as Tyes Place (1.8 miles north-east of Warninglid) in the wider area, owners of older properties around Warninglid should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.
