Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For a building around Salters Heath, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.
- We price from the drawings, specification and programme you send.
- 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.
- We seal each plot or floor as it’s released to us.
- Each joint is prepared, backed to depth and sealed in the product the specification names.
- Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Point out parking and an unloading spot

How we handle construction mastic in Salters Heath
We work to the specification and the programme. If a product is named, that’s what goes in. Joint widths, backing, primers and tooling follow the manufacturer’s guidance. We work on sanitary and kitchen joints, internal decorators’ caulk and brick and block movement joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are a mastic package split between trades with no clear owner and sanitary sealant damaged by following trades. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Salters Heath from the first photos to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Salters Heath is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

What else we do in Salters Heath
How the job changes by surface
Window and door perimeters
Perimeter joints between frames and the structure are the weather line on any new building. They’re sealed with a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone or another product named in the specification and set the depth with backing where needed.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Not every penetration suits a sealant. Other products are used for some services and gaps. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Contractors’ notes for Salters Heath
Salters Heath sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. 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. Salters Heath lies roughly 46 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
Units on estates such as Berry Court Business Park (0.9 miles north of Salters Heath) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal. School extensions, at buildings such as The Priory Primary School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Salters Heath is about 3 miles south of Tadley, in Hampshire. Across the RG26 postcode area, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee.

What we are called out for in Salters Heath
A new building moves while it dries and settles. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- Mastic snags holding up handover
New wings at hospitals like Parklands Hospital, 2.3 miles south of Salters Heath, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.

- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Their public liability cover
Why deal with it now?
It helps to bring the mastic subcontractor in before the package is urgent. Early involvement means gaps, products and access are sorted before the programme bites rather than at the snagging stage. Leave it late and they turn up on the snag list. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Salters Heath. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Cost factors for mastic packages
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- How accessible the joints are
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. It helps to include:
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
General trades versus a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
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.
Salters Heath: questions and answers
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Parklands Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is Berry Court Business Park, near Salters Heath, within your area?
Yes, sites like Berry Court Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Salters Heath. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit.
Do you do fire-rated sealing on new builds?
Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the manufacturer’s tested details. Fire-stopping design and sign-off sit with the designer and building control.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
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, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
