Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Wotton

Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Our applicators are CSCS-carded and we hold public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Wotton carry our 12-month guarantee. If you’re dealing with open joints in brickwork or panels and no planned programme for sealant, we can help. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Wotton it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

Around smaller places like Wotton, 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.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

General trades versus a specialist

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.

Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.

Looking after buildings in and around Wotton

Wotton sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first. Central London is about 23 miles from Wotton. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.

Landlords with units on estates such as Chapel Lane Industrial Estate (to the north-east of Wotton) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme. Historic properties like Polesden Lacey (to the north of Wotton) show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone.

Wotton is about 3 miles south-west of Dorking, in Surrey. Wotton sits inside our coverage and the rest of Surrey, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else.

When to call us in Wotton

Poor preparation explains many failed joints. Without clean, sound faces and a primer where the product needs one, the bead peels off one side.

These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:

  • Open joints in brickwork or panels
  • Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
  • Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
  • Communal area joints that look neglected

For a school such as The Priory CofE Voluntary Aided School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.

How to choose a sealant contractor

Our process

Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Smaller jobs around Wotton can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
  2. The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
  3. Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
  4. Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
  5. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance

Advice

When it isn’t the sealant

A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:

  • Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
  • Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
  • Glazing that needs replacing

If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think.

Your questions answered

Is Wotton off your patch?

Not at all. Wotton is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Is Chapel Lane Industrial Estate, near Wotton, within your area?

Yes. Our area takes in Wotton and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Chapel Lane Industrial Estate included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.

What do you charge?

Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.

Which sealant will you use?

A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.

Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?

Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. We work through buildings in a planned order with dates agreed in advance.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

Leave it or put it right?

Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too, and the complaints come with it. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Wotton. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

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