Questions we’re asked in Emery Down
Is Emery Down too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Emery Down are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Ashurst Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Will you stick to the specified products?
The specification decides the product and flag anything that doesn’t look right for the joint. Specifications often reference BS EN 15651 or BS 6213.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. We take on portfolio and planned maintenance work, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
Are you CHAS accredited?
We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. We’re also fully insured, with five million pounds of public liability cover.
Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Emery Down
Mastic is often where a new building first shows its quality to the client. A smeared bead round a window or a gap behind a worktop ends up on the snag list. Our aim is joints that pass at the first inspection, whatever the size of the scheme. If you are dealing with frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed and external joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing, we can put it right. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Emery Down? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
For a site near Emery Down, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we are clear about what is covered before work starts.

What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- The total length or number of joints
- Access and working height
- The size and state of each joint
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Pricing mastic packages depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you are working to. Call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- The postcode of the building
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available

For managing agents and facilities managers
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We are fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
New build and refits around Emery Down
Rainfall across the South East, Emery Down included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. The area within 2 miles of Emery Down holds several hotels. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
New wings at hospitals like Ashurst Hospital (to the north-east of Emery Down) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as The Crown Manor House Hotel (less than half a mile east of Emery Down), typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
Emery Down is about 5 miles south-west of Totton, in Hampshire. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Emery Down use us for work on mastic packages, as part of our coverage of Hampshire. We work across 723 places in Hampshire. There’s a separate page for Southampton, about 9 miles away.
Commercial sites across SO43 are covered. Among the streets we cover are Garden Close, Northerwood Avenue and Silver Street. Just outside Emery Down, we also work in Lyndhurst (1 mile east), Balmerlawn (3 miles south), Ashurst (4 miles north-east), Brockenhurst (4 miles south) and Colbury (4 miles north-east). A short drive away, we cover Eastleigh (12 miles north-east), Totton (5 miles north-east), Chandler's Ford (12 miles north-east), Hedge End (13 miles east), Lymington (8 miles south) and Romsey (10 miles north-east).
Near you in Emery Down
We work on buildings around The Swan Inn and the streets around them. The nearest railway station is Ashurst New Forest station, about 2.9 miles north-east. Other landmarks nearby include Ashurst Hospital (3.1 miles north-east) and National Dairy Museum (3.9 miles east). For a walk, there’s Copythorne Common.
Why deal with it now?
It helps to bring the mastic subcontractor in before the package is urgent. Early involvement means gaps, products and access are sorted before the programme bites. Leave it late and they turn up on the snag list. Converted and older buildings near places like Emery Down 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: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

When to call us in Emery Down
Frames installed with uneven gaps make perimeter sealing harder. Sealant has a range of joint widths it can cope with and gaps beyond it need packing or adjusting by the frame installer. We flag them early rather than filling them with sealant that won’t last.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing something like this:
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
- Mastic snags holding up handover
For contractors at a school such as St Michael and All Angels CofE Infant School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- How joint depth will be controlled
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
How a job runs
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Jobs in and around smaller places like Emery Down are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- A fixed quote sets out the scope, the products and the sequence.
- Any site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) is confirmed with the quote.

- Every joint is prepared, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.
