About our construction mastic in Shootash
Since 2005 we have worked alongside main contractors, developers and fit-out firms. Quantities come off the drawings, the sequence is agreed with the site manager and the work follows the trades. To price a package in Shootash, send drawings and the specification through our quote form. We work on cladding and panel joints, internal decorators’ caulk and window and door perimeters, and what we are called in for most is sealant knocked or painted over by other trades and inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Shootash it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Shootash 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.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Your questions answered
Will you take on work at estates like Budds Lane Industrial Estate, close to Shootash?
Yes. We cover Shootash and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Budds Lane Industrial Estate. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Romsey Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
What hours do you work?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can you fit around our programme?
We work to your programme. Tell us the sequence and we’ll plan applicators around it, sealing as areas become ready.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Different surfaces, different methods
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
Across a block of flats or a hotel, sanitary sealing is repeated in every room. A single team keeps the standard consistent, plot by plot or floor by floor.
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.
When something else is needed
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we are upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
- Fire-stopping design or sign-off (that’s for the designer, fire engineer and building control)
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Cladding and panel joints
- Brick and block movement joints
Keeping the joints sound
For the best life from the joints:
- Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
- Keep product details for future maintenance
- Stick to the specified sealant rather than a generic substitute
- Don’t force external sealing on a damp or frosty day
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; we confirm the time for each product.
Frames with gaps too wide for sealant need sorting before the mastic goes on. Sealant stretched over an oversized gap won’t last so packing or adjustment by the installer comes first. We flag them as soon as we see them.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Why act early in Shootash
Getting the mastic contractor involved early pays off. We can check joint widths, flag frames with gaps that won’t seal and confirm products against the specification, which avoids last-minute problems. Called in at the end, the same issues surface during handover. Converted and older buildings near places like Shootash tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

Construction mastic in Shootash: the local picture
Rainfall across the South East, Shootash included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
New wings at hospitals like Romsey Hospital (to the east of Shootash) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. When units on a site such as Budds Lane Industrial Estate, 2 miles to the east of Shootash, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. With historic properties like Mottisfont Abbey (3 miles north of Shootash) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
