Mastic man in Cobham

Your local mastic man for Cobham

Cobham stretches along the River Mole in Elmbridge, from the old village core at Church Cobham and the High Street to Street Cobham on the Portsmouth Road and Fairmile to the east, with Stoke d’Abernon and Downside on its southern edge. Mr Mastic covers the whole area from our base in Crawley, resealing bathrooms, wet rooms, kitchens and glazing, and replacing tired mastic around windows and doors.

Many Cobham bathrooms are finished in natural stone, large tiles and frameless glass, and the sealant line is one of the first things you see. We take old silicone out in full, prepare the surfaces carefully and choose a sealant and colour that suit the finish, so the joint looks right as well as keeping water out.

Detached houses, conservation streets and converted mansions

Cobham is mostly a place of detached and semi-detached homes. In the 2011 census, the centre and south of the village had over 1,150 detached houses and nearly 700 semis, with around 400 terraced houses and 500 flats. Many larger homes have been extended, with en-suites and wet rooms added well after the house was built.

At its heart is the Church Cobham Conservation Area, designated in 1973, which contains fourteen listed buildings, including Pyports, Church Stile House, Ham Manor and Cedar House. St Andrew’s Church, with its Norman tower, stands at the centre. The early 1900s brought rows of neat cottages, and the High Street was widened at its southern end in the 1960s. Several country houses have since been divided into apartments, among them Cobham Park, completed in 1873, and Painshill House.

Each brings different sealant work. In extended homes, it is often a walk-in shower or wet room whose seals have started to fail. In listed and conservation-area houses, it is the joint between old frames and brick or render. In converted mansions, it is compact bathrooms fitted into grand rooms, where any leak travels down through very old floors. Whatever the house, we protect floors and finishes, tidy up as we go and leave a clean, even line.
