Our commercial sealant contractors service in GU30
Mastic Doctor has been sealing joints for businesses and contractors since 2005, and the paperwork side is in order: we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Let us know which site documents you need and they’ll be confirmed with the quote. We work on external facade joints, movement joints in walls and floors and window and door perimeters, and what we are called in for most is frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away and movement joints packed with grit and debris.
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly.
- We start with the evidence: photographs, drawings or a look on site.
- A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
- Sequence, access and working times are settled before the first joint is touched.
- Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
- Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
- Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.
What you’ll pay
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Why clients in GU30 choose us
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- CHAS accredited
- Failed material removed, not covered up
Quotes
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Near you in Liphook
Around Liphook, our work takes us to commercial buildings near St Mary's Church Centre, The Green Dragon Public House and Bohunt School and the streets around them. Liphook’s nearest station is Liphook station, roughly 0.5 miles south of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Chase Community Hospital (3.3 miles north-west). The countryside around Liphook includes Lynchmere Commons and Wheeler's Down.
Commercial premises across GU30
Commercial buildings across GU30 range from older premises altered many times to recent units on business parks. Surfaces decide the sealant, from masonry to powder-coated frames and shop-fit panels.
The South East is one of the UK’s drier regions, though outside work in GU30 still waits for dry faces, and cold mornings bring frost and condensation on steel and glass.
Liphook: For premises near Liphook station, which lies south of Liphook, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading. For a hotel such as Royal Anchor Hotel, less than half a mile to the south-west of Liphook, the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.
Maintenance after handover
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
- Put external and wet-area joints on a regular inspection round
- Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
- Brief cleaning contractors to avoid scourers and blades on sealant
Put sealant on the planned maintenance checklist. A periodic look catches splits and lifting edges early, with external elevations and wet areas first in line. If anything looks wrong, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with a photo.
Sealant rarely fails all at once across a building. A few splits this year usually mean more next year, so it makes sense to look at the wider elevation or block. We can assess the lot and suggest what to do now and later.
What happens if it’s left?
A cheaper quote sometimes means the old bead stays in. Sealing over looks tidy at handover, then lifts once the joint starts moving. Every quote we give includes full removal and preparation.
What your quote should include
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- What site paperwork they can supply
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
How the job changes by surface
Commercial kitchens and tea points
Gaps and ragged beads trap dirt that cleaning can’t reach, which matters when environmental health officers look at a kitchen. Work is timed around the hours you give us so the kitchen isn’t out of use longer than needed.
Shop fronts and retail fit-outs
Most shops can’t close for a reseal. We plan around the access windows the store gives us, working in sections where that helps.
Signs you need commercial sealant contractors
If only one face has lost its grip, that’s an adhesion failure. The usual causes are poor preparation, a missed primer, contamination on the joint face or sealant bonded to the base of the joint. We see it often where joints were sealed in a hurry.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
- Weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes
- Expansion joints with the sealant torn out
- Damp patches where an external joint has failed
When to bring in a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
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, which is what makes a joint last.
Questions about GU30
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Does weather matter for sealant 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.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Can you handle sealant work across several sites?
Yes, within the areas we cover: South East England, Greater London and Scotland. Each site gets the same process and a single contact.
How soon can the area be used again?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?
It can, on some older buildings. That’s why we ask for the asbestos information first, and stop if a material is suspect until it’s tested.
