About our commercial sealant contractors in Shepherd's Green

Most commercial buildings carry hundreds of metres of sealant that nobody thinks about until it fails, and in an occupied building failure typically announces itself as a stained ceiling or an unhappy tenant. Mastic Doctor works as a commercial sealant contractor for facilities managers, managing agents and main contractors with sites in Shepherd's Green. Our job is to diagnose the failure, remove the old bead and seal again using a product chosen for the movement and exposure. Site teams most often ask us about wall and floor joints that have lost their seal and messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down, on floor and threshold joints, movement joints in walls and floors and washrooms and tea points. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Shepherd's Green from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

If you look after more than one building near Shepherd's Green, the work can be planned as one programme, so standards and paperwork match across every site.

A job in a smaller place like Shepherd's Green is normally a single building. We plan the visit so everything on the list is done in one go, with the right products and colours on hand.

We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Different surfaces, different methods

Commercial kitchens and tea points

In kitchens, sealant lines at worktops, sinks and wall panels take heat, grease and daily cleaning. They’re degreased thoroughly before resealing, and a hygienic or food-safe sealant is used where food contact is possible.

Facade and cladding joints

Facade joints move every day as panels warm and cool. The product has to suit the movement, and the depth has to be controlled with backing. We confirm the access in place before we quote.

Commercial clients in Shepherd's Green

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative.

Cost factors for sealant joints

To price the job, we consider:

  • Access and working height
  • The total length or number of joints
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants

What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

Sending details for a quote

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:

  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • The site address and postcode
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • The type of building and who uses it

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Leave it or put it right?

On many buildings the mastic was done by whichever trade was on site. A specialist applicator takes care of product choice, joint depth and preparation. You notice the difference years later, not on the day. Converted and older buildings near places like Shepherd's Green tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Sealant on show in Shepherd's Green’s commercial buildings

Shepherd's Green lies roughly 38 miles out from central London. The South East around the capital has large numbers of business parks, offices and retail centres, especially around the motorway corridors. If you have premises across the region, one contractor can cover them all. Rainfall across the South East, Shepherd's Green included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Drier doesn’t mean dry every day, so frontage work still has some give in the dates.

For tenants and agents on sites such as Vanalloys Business Park, which lies west of Shepherd's Green, office fit-outs, reception joints and window perimeters are the usual sealant work.

Shepherd's Green is about 5 miles north of Caversham, in Oxfordshire. Our applicators travel to Shepherd's Green for work on sealant joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area. We work across 423 places in Oxfordshire, large and small. For work in that direction, see our Reading page (7 miles or so).

How a job runs

Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. For work around Shepherd's Green, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. First, details reach us through the quote form or a site visit.
  2. The cause is diagnosed and the scope priced as a fixed quote.
  3. Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
  4. Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
  5. Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
  6. A final walk-round, then the 12-month guarantee applies.

Before we start on site

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Let building users know which areas are affected

Related advice

Shepherd's Green: questions and answers

Can you match sealant colours for premises in Shepherd's Green?

Yes, we can normally get close to most finishes from the product’s colour range. Send colour references or photographs and we will confirm what’s available for the product.

Is Shepherd's Green off your patch?

Not at all. Shepherd's Green is within our area. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?

Yes. Use our quote form to send the site details, or phone or email us, and we’ll confirm any paperwork you need with the quote.

What site paperwork can you provide?

We confirm documents at quote stage: most clients ask for RAMS, our insurance certificate and CSCS details. Every applicator holds a CSCS card.

How long does a typical visit take?

That varies with the scale of the job, but the work normally takes anything from part of a day on a short run of joints to several weeks on a large phased package. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.

Who decides which product is used?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.

Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?

We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is disturbed. Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility.

What we’re called out for in Shepherd's Green

If only one face has lost its grip, that’s an adhesion failure. Typical reasons include rushed preparation, no primer where one was needed, dust or release agents on the surface, or three-sided adhesion. We see it often where joints were sealed in a hurry.

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Window and door perimeter joints that have cracked open
  • A top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting
  • Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
  • Damp patches where an external joint has failed

Premises within reach of Henley-On-Thames station (3.2 miles east of Shepherd's Green) often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.

What your quote should include

  • Who will actually carry out the work
  • How the existing material will be dealt with
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • The named product and why it was chosen
