Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
How the quote is worked out
These are the things that shape the price:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Any access equipment needed
- How much there is to seal
- How much existing material needs removing
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
Sending details for a quote
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

What the job involves on each surface
External facade and movement joints
Movement joints in the facade are sealed with a product suited to the expected movement. Depth is controlled with backing rod so the bead bonds to two sides only.
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
Sanitary joints around baths, showers, basins and WCs need anti-mould sanitary silicone. Each joint is prepared, sealed and finished with a neat tooled line, and any bath is loaded with water first where that’s the agreed method.
How a job runs
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Jobs in and around smaller places like Begbroke are normally planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- We start with the drawings, specification and programme.
- Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
- The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
- Each area is sealed when it’s released.
- Every joint is cleaned, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- After snagging, the work is handed over under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Looking after the joints
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Record the products used in the O&M file
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
A new structure shifts as it loses construction moisture. Flexible sealants in the right joints handle normal movement while rigid fillers and caulk can crack where movement is larger. If that happens, let us know.
Sanitary joints that fail early become defects soon after occupation. Leaks behind showers and basins damage finishes and floors, and the repair falls into the defects period. Getting the product and preparation right first time avoids that.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Begbroke: questions and answers
Is Begbroke too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University Field Station?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
When is resealing likely to be due?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Does weather affect external mastic work?
Conditions have to suit the product before external work starts. Sealing in poor conditions risks adhesion failure, so we wait rather than redo work.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.
Mastic packages on Begbroke sites
Begbroke sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Begbroke is about 57 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme.
When units on a site such as Oxford Technology Park, 0.5 miles north-east of Begbroke, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Extensions at sites like Acland Hospital (to the south-east of Begbroke) normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. With historic properties like Blenheim Palace (to the north-west of Begbroke) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
Begbroke is about 6 miles north-west of Oxford, in Oxfordshire. Begbroke sits inside our coverage, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. Begbroke is one of 423 places we cover in Oxfordshire. For work in that direction, see our Oxford page.
Anyone looking for construction mastic in OX5 gets the same process as the rest of our area: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed.

Further afield, our area takes in Oxford (6 miles south-east), Didcot (15 miles south), Bicester (9 miles north-east), Abingdon-on-Thames (10 miles south), Witney (8 miles west) and Carterton (12 miles west).
Landmarks near Begbroke
Locally, jobs take us to sites close to Gosford Hill School and The Royal Sun pub and the streets around them. Begbroke’s nearest station is Oxford Parkway station, roughly 2.3 miles south-east. Other landmarks nearby include Acland Hospital (4.9 miles south-east) and Oxford Bus Museum (2.3 miles west). For a walk, there’s Hook Meadow and The Trap Grounds.
Why act early in Begbroke
A cheaper sealant can look like an easy saving on a large package. A failed joint in the defects period costs far more than the product difference. Where an alternative is genuinely suitable, we’ll say so. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Begbroke, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

- RAL and finish matching where the product range allows
