About our construction mastic in Parslow's Hillock

Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance in place. RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details can be confirmed with the quote if you tell us what you need. We work on floor and skirting junctions, cladding and panel joints and sanitary and kitchen joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are new external sealant already peeling away and bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean. Searching for sealant specialists in Parslow's Hillock? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Parslow's Hillock bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Questions about Parslow's Hillock

Does your area include sites such as Crownfield Industrial Estate, near Parslow's Hillock?

Yes, sites like Crownfield Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Parslow's Hillock. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Is hospital work, at somewhere like The Paddocks Hospital, something you do?

Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.

Can you send site paperwork?

Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm them with the quote.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.

Can you come in just for snagging?

Yes. We can work through a mastic snag list area by area before handover and damaged joints are redone properly.

What happens if old sealant might contain asbestos?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.

Do you guarantee new-build sealant work?

It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee on the workmanship. Protecting sealed areas from following trades helps avoid damage.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Parslow's Hillock

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients 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.

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

Construction mastic in Parslow's Hillock: the local picture

Parslow's Hillock is about 34 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Rainfall across the South East, Parslow's Hillock included, is lower than in many 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.

Hospital estates such as The Paddocks Hospital (1.6 miles north-west of Parslow's Hillock) 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. Older buildings in the area around Parslow's Hillock, such as Hughenden Manor, 4.6 miles to the south-east of Parslow's Hillock, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.

Parslow's Hillock is about 6 miles north of High Wycombe, in Buckinghamshire.

When to call us in Parslow's Hillock

A new building moves while it dries and settles. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.

These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:

  • Frame gaps too wide for sealant alone
  • A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
  • Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
  • Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover

School extensions, at buildings such as Princes Risborough School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
  • Their approach to joint depth and backing
  • Proof of insurance
  • Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?

How to choose a sealant contractor

Cost factors for mastic packages

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • Access and working height
  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Site requirements such as inductions and permits
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first

Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

Sending details for a quote

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:

  • The product your specification calls for
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • When you need the work done

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

General trades versus a specialist

General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

Our process

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. Jobs in and around smaller places like Parslow's Hillock are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
  2. Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
  3. The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
  4. Each area is sealed when it’s released.
  5. Every joint is cleaned, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
  6. Snags are cleared and the package signed off with our 12-month guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Warn occupants and staff about the work
  • Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use

Looking after the joints

Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:

  • Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
  • Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
  • Plan external elevations with the weather in mind
  • Put any product change through the designer first

Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead, so stick to soft cloths and gentle cleaners near sealant.

Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. Clearing snags area by area spreads the work out.
