Our process
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. The work itself usually takes a few days on a modest refurbishment and longer on multi-plot or multi-storey schemes, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For work around Ware, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- We walk the site or review drawings to understand the package.
- A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
- Paperwork is agreed and applicators are inducted on site.
- Sealing follows the programme as areas are released.
- Problems we find, such as oversized gaps, are raised straight away.
- The package is closed out, snags cleared and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Agree which areas must stay open

Construction mastic in Ware
Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. We work on window and door perimeters, cladding and panel joints and sanitary and kitchen joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are new external sealant already peeling away and a long mastic snag list close to completion. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Ware tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
For a site near Ware, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Drawings, photographs and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Contractors’ notes for Ware
Ware 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 external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Ware is about 60 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.
Older buildings in the area around Ware, such as Goodnestone Park, 4.3 miles south-west of Ware, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials. When units on a site such as Monkton Business Centre (to the north of Ware) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
Ware is about 6 miles south-west of St Lawrence, in Kent. Any commercial site in Ware is covered. We work across 931 places in Kent, large and small. For work in that direction, see our London page (60 miles or so).

Why it’s worth doing now in Ware
Refurbishments sometimes budget for new windows when the frames are sound and only the seal has failed. If the frame is in good order, cutting out and resealing the perimeter can be all it needs, which is a much smaller cost. We’ll say so if a frame itself is the problem. Converted and older buildings near places like Ware tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Work for main contractors and building owners
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
When to bring in a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
How the job changes by surface
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulking is often done in a hurry by whoever’s on site. Done properly, it saves decorators time and gives a clean line and keeps the snag list down.
External facade and movement joints
Movement joints in the facade are sealed with a product suited to the expected movement. We set the depth with backing rod to avoid three-sided adhesion.
Questions about Ware
Will you take on work at estates like Monkton Business Centre, close to Ware?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Ware, Monkton Business Centre among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Can you keep pace with our programme in Ware?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we’ll plan the mastic to suit the stages. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we will confirm them alongside the quote.
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.
Can you quote from photos?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photographs and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
