Advice
About our construction mastic in Hook
A typical mastic package covers more than window perimeters: frame perimeters inside and out, caulking to trims and boards where the specification calls for it, sanitary silicone, kitchens, and the final snag list. One contractor for all of it keeps the responsibility in one place and gives you a consistent finish across the job. Most enquiries involve sealant knocked or painted over by other trades and frame gaps too wide for sealant alone, on internal decorators’ caulk, window and door perimeters and floor and skirting junctions. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Hook, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around places like Hook, a lot of construction is the conversion of older buildings, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.

Common problems we fix in Hook
Three-sided adhesion is a frequent fault on new work. Bonded to the base of the joint and both sides, sealant can’t stretch evenly.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Different trades sealing to different standards
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- External joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing
Historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (to the north of Hook) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.

Why it’s worth doing now in Hook
A cheaper sealant can look like an easy saving on a large package. The saving is small next to the cost of callbacks and defects. Where an alternative is genuinely suitable, we’ll say so. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.

Hook: questions and answers
Will you take on work at estates like Murrell Green Business Park, close to Hook?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Hook, Murrell Green Business Park among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Fleet Community Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you use the sealant named in the specification?
The specified product is what goes in. If we think an alternative would suit better, we put it to you first.
How much does the work cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, ring 01277 525 020 or email us.
What accreditations do you hold?
We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. Public liability insurance of five million pounds is in place too.
What happens if the weather stops external sealing?
External mastic depends on conditions: each sealant has a temperature range, and the joint must be dry. External work is sequenced with some flexibility.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
How the job changes by surface
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 before sealing starts.
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
Sanitary joints around baths, showers, basins and WCs need anti-mould sanitary silicone. Joints are cleaned, sealed and tooled neatly and baths are loaded where appropriate before sealing.
