Construction mastic in Hightown
On refurbishments, the mastic package usually includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old and the asbestos survey is checked first on older stock. After that, the joints are prepared and sealed to the specification. If you’re dealing with oversized or tapered gaps around new frames and bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Hightown, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
For a site near Hightown, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Common problems we fix in Hightown
A new building moves while it dries and settles. Plaster, screeds, timber and blockwork all shrink as they lose moisture. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
Most enquiries start with one or more of the following:
- Early adhesion failures on new external joints
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- Old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
Projects at colleges like Sheiling College (2.2 miles west of Hightown) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
Questions to ask before you book
- Their public liability cover
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Who will actually carry out the work
From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. For a building around Hightown, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
- Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
- We agree with the site team which areas come first.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Hightown. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
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.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
What we can’t put right
Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we have sealed
- Fire-stopping design or sign-off (that’s for the designer, fire engineer and building control)
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Cladding and panel joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Brick and block movement joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
Mastic packages on Hightown sites
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so the external programme keeps a little slack. A 2-mile radius around Hightown takes in a number of hotels. Hotel extensions and refits usually have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
Projects at schools like Ringwood Junior School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. For a contractor at a hotel such as The Crown Hotel (1.2 miles west of Hightown), the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.

Why act early in Hightown
Getting the mastic contractor involved early pays off. Early involvement means gaps, products and access are sorted before the programme bites rather than at the snagging stage. Called in at the end, the same issues surface during handover. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Hightown. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

Common questions from Hightown clients
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Sheiling College?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is a smaller place like Hightown outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you seal external joints in wet or cold weather?
Conditions have to suit the product before external work starts. Wet or cold joints cause adhesion problems so it’s better to wait.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Can you clear a mastic snag list before handover?
Yes. Damaged, missed or untidy joints are stripped and done again properly.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
