When to call us in Aldermaston Wharf
On construction sites, joints usually fail early because of when they were sealed, not what was used. If sealant goes in before the last trades are through, it gets knocked, painted over or contaminated, so they end up back on the snag list.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Mastic snags holding up handover
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Early adhesion failures on new external joints
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Comfort Hotel, 0.7 miles north-east of Aldermaston Wharf, typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
Before you book anyone
- How joint depth will be controlled
- What site paperwork they can supply
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk

Maintenance after handover
For the best life from the joints:
- Record the products used in the O&M file
- Stick to the specified sealant rather than a generic substitute
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
Any damage after we have finished should go on the snag list straight away. Snags can be picked up in a planned close-out visit.
Sanitary joints that fail early become defects soon after occupation. Water gets behind trays, vanity tops and panels. Getting the product and preparation right first time avoids that.
Owners, agents and contractors
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Different surfaces, different methods
Snagging before handover
Snagging is often the final mastic stage. Snags are cleared room by room and damaged joints are redone rather than patched.
Window and door perimeters
A frame gap that’s too wide can’t just be filled with sealant. We check them during the first walk-round and flag any that need packing or adjusting.
