Mastic sealing in Wiggonholt

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

What happens if it’s left?

Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish. Converted and older buildings near places like Wiggonholt tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

  • Specification-led, product-correct work

How we handle mastic sealing in Wiggonholt

Owners and agents typically inherit a building’s mastic rather than choose it, and it ages quietly: 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 communal entrances and stairwells, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks, and the failures we are asked to look at most are repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and a mix of products and colours from past repairs. Most enquiries from Wiggonholt start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.

Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Wiggonholt tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.

A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in West Sussex. If an installation problem shows up, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will arrange a return visit.

Common questions from Wiggonholt clients

Is Wiggonholt too small for you to travel to?

Not at all. Wiggonholt is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Pulborough station?

Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we’ll quote and plan to suit.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

What about access for upper-floor joints?

Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we will confirm the approach in the quote.

Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?

Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it and suspect material is tested first.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee and we hold public liability insurance.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.

Looking after the joints

Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:

  • Track which buildings were done and when
  • Prioritise elevations facing the weather
  • List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
  • Check sealant joints during planned building inspections

Keep records of when each building was resealed. It helps plan the next round and gives you a history.

Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.

Our process

In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. Jobs in and around smaller places like Wiggonholt are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
  2. You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
  3. Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
  4. We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Getting the site ready

  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs

Ask for a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Wiggonholt can sit alongside others in a wider programme.

Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

When to call us in Wiggonholt

We often find joints filled solid with no backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. That three-sided adhesion stops it stretching and it tears.

Clients usually get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:

  • Failed external movement joints
  • Communal area joints that look neglected
  • Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
  • A mix of products and colours from past repairs

Property owners at sites such as Station Approach Industrial Estate, 1.7 miles to the north-west of Wiggonholt, can have mastic renewed between lettings.

How to choose a sealant contractor

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

Looking after buildings in and around Wiggonholt

Rainfall across the South East, Wiggonholt included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. At about 42 miles from central London, Wiggonholt is within reach of the capital. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.

For agents with blocks near Pulborough station, 1.8 miles to the north-west of Wiggonholt, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. Trustees of buildings like Wiggonholt Church can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.
