Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
When to bring in a specialist
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
How we handle construction mastic in Slindon
Most of the packages we price run well beyond frames: external door and window perimeters, internal decorators’ caulk where specified, sanitary joints in bathrooms and washrooms, kitchen worktops and splashbacks, and snagging before handover. One contractor for all of it keeps the responsibility in one place. The enquiries we see most involve bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean and different trades sealing to different standards, across floor and skirting junctions, sanitary and kitchen joints and brick and block movement joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Slindon, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
For a site near Slindon, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Leave it or put it right?
Clearing snags piecemeal is tempting when handover is close. A planned sweep of each plot or floor catches the lot in one go, and avoids repeated visits. We can run snagging as its own phase before handover. Older rural buildings around Slindon move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

Diagnose, treat, sign off
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Jobs in and around smaller places like Slindon are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
- A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
- Paperwork is agreed and applicators are inducted on site.
- We seal plot by plot or floor by floor in line with the programme.
- Problems we find, such as oversized gaps, are raised right away.
- Final snagging is completed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
Ask for a quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly.

FAQs: Slindon
Can you work at a site such as Tokar Industrial Park, by Slindon?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Slindon, Tokar Industrial Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Arundel and District Hospital, something you do?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Internal work is rarely affected.
What guarantee comes with a mastic package?
Each package is backed by a 12-month guarantee. We carry five million pounds of public liability insurance.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Can you fit around our working hours?
We are in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Tell us your site hours and access windows and the work will be fitted around them.
How the job changes by surface
Snagging before handover
The last pass before handover is where mastic snags are cleared. We can work through the snag list area by area.
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
In bathrooms and washrooms, an anti-mould sanitary silicone goes around every fitting. Each joint is prepared, sealed and finished with a neat tooled line and baths are loaded where appropriate before sealing.
Maintenance after handover
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Share these points with them:
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Use the product the specification names
The package carries our 12-month guarantee for workmanship. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault.
Leaving the mastic snag list to the end squeezes everyone. A planned close-out through each area as it completes keeps the list short, and avoids a rush.
Contractors’ notes for Slindon
Slindon has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up. Slindon lies roughly 50 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Historic houses such as Bignor Roman Villa (to the north of Slindon) are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. Hospital estates such as Arundel and District Hospital (to the east of Slindon) 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. Hotels like Avisford Park Hotel, 1.3 miles to the south-east of Slindon, rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.
