Questions about Knowl Hill
Is a hospital such as St Mark's Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Is Knowl Hill too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Do you do fire-rated sealing on new builds?
It can be part of the package where specified. Record requirements are confirmed at quote stage.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Do you guarantee new-build sealant work?
Each package is backed by a 12-month guarantee. We’re also fully insured for public liability.

New build and refits around Knowl Hill
Knowl Hill is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. 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. Knowl Hill is about 31 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
School extensions, at buildings such as Knowl Hill Church of England Primary Academy, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included. Further education sites such as Berkshire College of Agriculture (to the north-east of Knowl Hill) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break. Hospital estates such as St Mark's Hospital, 3.3 miles east of Knowl Hill, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.

Maintenance after handover
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
- Use the product the specification names
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
After we’ve sealed an area, it helps to keep other trades from damaging the joints. New beads should be left to cure before cleaning or decorating nearby, and that time depends on the product, temperature and joint depth.
Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. Clearing snags area by area spreads the work out and keeps handover on track.
How a job runs
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. If others near Knowl Hill need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- We return a fixed quote that ties the mastic package to your programme.
- Any site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) is confirmed with the quote.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Each joint is prepared, backed to depth and sealed in the product the specification names.
- Before handover, snags are dealt with and the package is signed off under our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Related advice
How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Location, for remote and island sites
- How accessible the joints are
- Whether the work must be split into stages
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- The site address and postcode
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- When you need the work done

How the job changes by surface
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Not every penetration suits a sealant. Other products are used for some services and gaps, and we will tell you if the detail calls for something else. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulk is easy to apply badly. A neat, consistent caulk line makes the decorators’ job quicker and reduces snags.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.

What we can’t put right
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It isn’t the answer for:
- Glazing units that are cracked or misted
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think.
