About our mastic sealing in Wix Green
We work for building owners, landlords with commercial or block portfolios, managing agents and housing associations. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint and we quote and schedule each building in turn. If you are dealing with old repairs sealed over failed mastic and movement joints with sealant missing, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Wix Green it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Wix Green tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
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.

Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Silicone typically can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it unless told otherwise.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. We can quote buildings in priority order so spending is spread.

Common questions from Wix Green clients
Does your area include sites such as Oak Business Park, near Wix Green?
Yes. Our area takes in Wix Green and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Oak Business Park included. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Wix Green too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Wix Green is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
When can the area be used after sealing?
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.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Send details for a fixed quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.

Signs you need mastic sealing in Wix Green
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and the sealant takes up that movement. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits and fails early.
Clients typically get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- Failed external movement joints
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
Older buildings near Wix Green, from historic houses such as Thorpe Hall, 4.2 miles to the south of Wix Green, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Their public liability cover
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks

- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
How a job runs
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Jobs in and around smaller places like Wix Green are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
Getting a fixed quote
For a fixed quote, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.
Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Open external joints let water into walls and around frames. Damp patches, stained plaster and decorating claims can follow and those cost far more to put right. Around Wix Green, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
