Commercial mastic work in Tinkers Cross
Most of the buildings we seal stay open while we are there. Work is scheduled around the site hours and access windows you give us. It’s the same approach in offices, retail units, hotels, schools and healthcare buildings. If you are dealing with gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks and frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall, we can help. Whoever orders the work in Tinkers Cross, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In an occupied building in Tinkers Cross, the job is planned so areas stay in use: we agree the order with you and hand back each area with its cure time.
Work in smaller places such as Tinkers Cross tends to come one building at a time: a pub kitchen, a hall, a small office. We will want a full list and photographs first, so the right products come on the day and nothing waits for a second trip.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Work for main contractors and building owners
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
What Tinkers Cross’s businesses ask us to seal
Tinkers Cross sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Drier doesn’t mean dry every day, so frontage work still has some give in the dates. The 3 miles around Tinkers Cross take in at least three named trading estates, business parks or retail parks. Sites like these see regular refits, with shopfronts, offices and staff areas to seal.
Trade counters and showrooms on estates such as Arch Farm Industrial Estate (to the south-east of Tinkers Cross) need neat joints where clients see them. Sites a few miles apart, such as Arch Farm Industrial Estate and Fordingbridge Business Park, can share one programme and one point of contact.
Tinkers Cross is in Hampshire. We cover commercial sites throughout Tinkers Cross. 723 places across Hampshire fall within our area, including Tinkers Cross. Our Southampton page has more on work in that area.

Leave it or put it right?
A failed seal around a window, worktop or panel doesn’t mean the element itself has to go. In many cases the element is fine and only the seal around it has given up. A careful reseal is a far smaller undertaking than replacement. For buildings around smaller places like Tinkers Cross, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
Why us?

What we are called out for in Tinkers Cross
A good share of the joints we inspect were topped up instead of being renewed. New silicone has nothing to key into so it soon peels and traps moisture against the joint. Getting back to a clean joint then means removing every layer.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- A top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting
- Shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
- Leaks that seem to come through a sealant line
In hotels such as Greyhound Hotel, 0.9 miles south-east of Tinkers Cross, refurbishments typically mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes.
What to look for in a quote
- Proof of insurance
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Who will actually carry out the work
Our process
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. For work around Tinkers Cross, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We begin with whatever information you have, whether that’s photos, a drawing or a list of locations, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
- Next comes a diagnosis and a fixed quote.
- Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
- Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
- We fit backing to the right depth, prime where specified and lay the new bead.
- We walk the completed areas with you and sign them off under the 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Let us know about inductions and permits

When something else is needed
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
- Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

What else we do in Tinkers Cross
How the job changes by surface
Washrooms and toilets
Around WCs, urinals, vanity tops, IPS panels and cubicles, sealant is wet most of the day. We cut out mouldy or split beads and reseal in anti-mould sanitary silicone, with phased work so some facilities stay open.
Shop fronts and retail fit-outs
Shop fits put sealant right in front of clients. Counters, display units, shopfront frames and floor trims all need a neat line. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Common questions from Tinkers Cross clients
Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Tinkers Cross?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
Can you work at a site such as Arch Farm Industrial Estate, by Tinkers Cross?
Yes. We cover Tinkers Cross and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Arch Farm Industrial Estate. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Will the building have to shut during the work?
It’s normal for us to work in occupied buildings. We agree the order of areas, protect what’s nearby and close off only the section we’re sealing for as long as the cure needs.
Do you work in Tinkers Cross?
Yes. Sites across Tinkers Cross are covered, with one number for every area we cover.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit typically takes as long as the agreed scope needs, from a single visit to a programme spread over several weeks. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Could the old sealant in an older building contain asbestos?
We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is disturbed. Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility and removing it isn’t something we do.
