Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
How the quote is worked out
Before we quote, we look at:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The product specified
- How accessible the joints are
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
What we need to price the job
However big the job, these details speed things up:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- The product your specification calls for
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with what you know.
Construction mastic in Little Hoddington, done properly
Perimeter sealing outside needs a dry joint and the right temperature. Cold or damp mornings, frost and condensation on frames can all hold external sealing up, so we plan elevations with the forecast and the programme in mind. Internal sealing often fills those days. Site teams most often ask us about oversized or tapered gaps around new frames and different trades sealing to different standards, on internal decorators’ caulk, cladding and panel joints and window and door perimeters. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Little Hoddington? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.

Our process
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we’re cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. For a building around Little Hoddington, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- 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.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Joints are cleaned, primed where the maker requires it, backed and sealed to the specification.
- We close out snagging and hand over with a 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.

After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
- Don’t schedule sealing before decorators and flooring are done
Record which products went where in the handover file. Future maintenance is easier when the products are known, and tells you what to reseal with. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Frames with gaps too wide for sealant need sorting before the mastic goes on. Filling a wide gap with sealant alone sets up a failure so packing or adjustment by the installer comes first. We raise them during our first walk of the area.
What happens if it’s left?
A quick bead over a damaged joint can get an area past inspection. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to and the defect reappears in the defects period. We cut out and redo the joint properly. Converted and older buildings near places like Little Hoddington tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

Common problems we fix in Little Hoddington
A joint without backing rod or bond-breaker often fails early. Fixed to three faces, the sealant rips the first time the joint opens so we set the depth properly before sealing.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work
- Caulk cracking where joints are moving more than expected
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital, 6 miles to the north-west of Little Hoddington, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
Facades, frames and programmes in Little Hoddington
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 we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. Central London is about 43 miles from Little Hoddington. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Hatch Industrial Park (2.7 miles north-west of Little Hoddington) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.

Your questions answered
Do you cover business parks and estates near Little Hoddington, such as Hatch Industrial Park?
Yes. We cover Little Hoddington and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Hatch Industrial Park. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Is Little Hoddington too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is colour matching possible?
That depends on the product. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Does weather affect external mastic work?
External mastic depends on conditions: each sealant has a temperature range, and the joint must be dry. External work is sequenced with some flexibility.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials.
Different surfaces, different methods
Kitchens and utility areas
Commercial kitchens often need hygienic or food-safe sealants. We follow the specification and seal to a smooth, cleanable finish.
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulking is often done in a hurry by whoever’s on site. A neat, consistent caulk line makes the decorators’ job quicker and reduces snags.
