Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters
Inside, cracked sealant around frames and window boards is common. We use a paintable product where decorating follows and a silicone where it doesn’t, in a shade that suits the frame.
Fire-rated seals where specified
Fire-rated sealant is only one type of fire-stopping product. Collars, wraps, batts and boards are specified for other services and gaps, so we’ll flag it if the detail needs a different product.
Sealant applicators in Bicester
Mastic Doctor has been sealing joints for businesses and contractors since 2005, and the documents buyers ask for are ready: we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. If your site needs RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, say so and we will confirm with the quote. If you’re dealing with expansion joints with the sealant torn out and window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open, we can help. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Bicester first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Occupied buildings in Bicester need the work phased: washrooms in turn, floors in sections and entrances kept open.
A town such as Bicester normally has a high street, some business units, schools and a surgery or two. Shopfronts, kitchens, washrooms and frames all have sealant that ages.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Phasing around occupants
A quote for sealant joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
Sending details for a quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? We will quote against your scope and drawings you can plan around. If you have questions first, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Signs you need commercial sealant contractors in Bicester
When a bead peels cleanly off one face, it has failed in adhesion. 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.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Frame sealant that has cracked, shrunk or pulled away
- Expansion joints with the sealant torn out
- Gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks
- External beads that have gone brittle and cracked
If you run an office at a site such as Talisman Business Centre (0.8 miles south of Bicester), the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out.
Before you book anyone
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- Proof of insurance
Leave it or put it right?
Leaving a failed joint rarely saves money. Water past a frame perimeter or a washroom joint can reach plasterboard, insulation, floor coverings and the ceiling below, which brings decorators and flooring contractors into the repair. Resealing while only the sealant has failed keeps the job small. For businesses and landlords in Bicester, a tidy, sound joint also matters for appearance. Fresh sealant makes a building look maintained.
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before the next one starts. In a town such as Bicester, most jobs are single buildings. Your photographs, drawings or a site visit come first, followed by a fixed quote.
- You send photographs, drawings or a list of the joints and areas involved, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
- The failure is diagnosed and a fixed quote issued for the work agreed.
- Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
- The failed bead is removed and the joint faces cleaned until they’re sound and dry.
- We fit backing to the right depth, prime where specified and lay the new bead.
- Finished joints are checked with you and handed over with our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Advice
When to bring in a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Bicester: questions and answers
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Bicester?
Yes, we can normally get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. Available colours for the product are confirmed with the quote.
Must a hotel around Bicester close while you work?
Almost never. The work is phased so most rooms stay available. Housekeeping and our team agree each day’s rooms.
Is it OK to apply fresh sealant over existing beads?
Every failed bead is cut out completely. New sealant can’t grip the old bead, so laying over it never lasts, and the faces are brought back to sound, dry material before resealing.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. Public liability insurance is in place too.
Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?
Yes. You can send details through our quote form.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
