Owners, agents and contractors
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around Stonehills. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Construction mastic in Stonehills
The programme rarely stands still, so the mastic package has to flex with it. The sequence is set with the site team and updated as plots or floors are handed over and we don’t seal before other trades have finished in an area. Sealing too early only means coming back once others have damaged it. Site teams most often ask us about sanitary sealant damaged by following trades and early adhesion failures on new external joints, on floor and skirting junctions, window and door perimeters and brick and block movement joints. Whoever orders the work in Stonehills, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Stonehills is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Questions we are asked in Stonehills
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Coldeast?
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.
Does the sea air around Stonehills change the choice of sealant?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Can fire-rated sealing at service penetrations be included?
Fire-rated sealing at service penetrations and linear gaps can be included where specified. Record requirements are confirmed at quote stage.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
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.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.
What do you charge?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, phone 01277 525 020 or email us.
Doing it in-house
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
Our 12-month guarantee covers the workmanship from sign-off. The guarantee covers how we sealed, not later damage by other trades which is why protection after sealing matters.
Sealing outside when the joint is damp or too cold leads to poor adhesion. Waiting for a dry joint and the right temperature is better than redoing work, so we plan external work with that in mind.
From enquiry to sign-off
We follow your site rules from the start: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we are cleared to begin, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it.

Advice

Facades, frames and programmes in Stonehills
With the shore within about 1 mile, Stonehills counts as a coastal location. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, so joint design, primers and product choice deserve extra care. Rainfall across the South East, Stonehills included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
Units on estates such as Ensign Way Business Park, 2.4 miles north of Stonehills, 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 Fawley Infant School, usually run to the summer holidays, mastic included. Older buildings in the area around Stonehills, such as Beaulieu Palace House (4.6 miles west of Stonehills), need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stonehills
When a package runs over budget, downgrading the product is a common first thought. The saving is small next to the cost of callbacks and defects. We price the specified product and will tell you plainly where an alternative would or wouldn’t work. Converted and older buildings near places like Stonehills tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
