Construction mastic for South Ham sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
How we handle construction mastic in South Ham
Since 2005 we have worked alongside main contractors, developers and fit-out firms. We price from drawings and the specification, agree the sequence with the site team and seal as areas are released. To price a package in South Ham, send drawings and the specification through our quote form. Most enquiries involve new external sealant already peeling away and existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing, across window and door perimeters, brick and block movement joints and sanitary and kitchen joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in South Ham it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Building work in places the size of South Ham is usually small-scale: a handful of new houses, barn conversions, a school or hall extension. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Your questions answered
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is a smaller place like South Ham outside your area?
No. Places such as South Ham are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
How much does the work cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote.
Can you fit around our programme?
We work to your programme. Tell us the sequence and we will plan applicators around it.
Does the weather affect the work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Inside work is seldom held up.
What hours do you work?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we will schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
When something else is needed
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Cladding and panel joints
- Brick and block movement joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Floor and skirting junctions
Work for main contractors and building owners
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Construction mastic around South Ham: how the place shapes the job
South Ham is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack. There are a good number of hotels within about 2 miles of South Ham. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Great Western Hotel, which lies north-east of South Ham, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. When units on a site such as West Ham Industrial Estate (less than half a mile north of South Ham) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Further education sites such as Basingstoke College of Technology, 0.8 miles north-east of South Ham, are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break.
South Ham is about 1 mile south-west of Basingstoke, in Hampshire. Our applicators travel to South Ham for work on mastic packages, handled exactly as we handle every other area. South Ham is one of 723 places we cover in Hampshire for mastic packages. Our Reading page has more on work in that area, about 14 miles away.
Work on mastic packages is covered throughout RG22, RG21 and RG23, for business premises of every kind. Buildings on Pheby Road, Wella Road and Lennox Road are within our area for mastic packages. We also cover Brighton Hill (1 mile south), Basingstoke (1 mile north-east), Winklebury (1 mile north-west), Buckskin (1 mile west) and Worting (1 mile west). Nearby towns on our patch include Farnborough (15 miles east), Fleet (12 miles east), Aldershot (15 miles east), Alton (10 miles south-east), Yateley (13 miles north-east) and Tadley (7 miles north).
Landmarks near South Ham
Locally, jobs take us to sites close to Aldworth School, Coppice Spring School and Eastrop Park, among other places. The nearest railway station is Basingstoke station, about 1.2 miles north-east. Other landmarks nearby include Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital (1.5 miles north) and Basing House (2.7 miles east). For a walk, there’s Farleigh Hill and Daneshill Park Woods.
Why act early in South Ham
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 comes back after handover. Damaged joints are removed and resealed from clean faces. Small buildings around South Ham suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Why appoint us
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting
- Failed material removed, not covered up
- Colour agreed before work starts
- Constructionline member for supplier checks

When to bring in a specialist
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
