Wooden Hill: questions and answers
Can work at a site such as Newbold College of Higher Education fit around teaching?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Broadmoor Hospital?
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.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
How long before the joints can be used?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.
Can you fit around our working hours?
We’re 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 much does the work cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?

Facade sealing in Wooden Hill, done properly
External sealing depends on the weather more than most trades. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits, so frosty or damp mornings can hold work back. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. The enquiries we see most involve failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and facade joints cracked through the middle, across coping and flashing joints, stone and brick facade joints and window and door perimeters. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Wooden Hill, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around smaller places like Wooden Hill, building work usually means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- How accessible the joints are
- Phasing around occupants
- The size and state of each joint
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
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 and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
What to include in your enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Your programme or deadline
- Access details, including height
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Common problems we fix in Wooden Hill
Sometimes the substrate is the problem: if the edge of the render, concrete or coating breaks away, the bead goes with it. When the joint edges need repair first, we say so.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Draughts around frames and panels
- New sealant peeling off old mastic
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
School extensions, at buildings such as Wooden Hill Primary and Nursery School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
What your quote should include
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Their public liability cover
Facade sealing in Wooden Hill: the local picture
At about 30 miles from central London, Wooden Hill is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Wooden Hill is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Broadmoor Hospital (1.5 miles south of Wooden Hill), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Longshot Lane Industrial Estate (1.6 miles north of Wooden Hill) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
Wooden Hill is about 2 miles north-east of Crowthorne, in Bracknell Forest. Wooden Hill sits inside our coverage, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else.

On site: what to expect
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, the joints are worked through in the order agreed with your site contact, and each area is checked before we leave it.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
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.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
How the job changes by surface
Precast concrete panels
Precast panel joints have to absorb thermal and structural movement. We use a sealant with the right movement capability, set over backing rod.
Render and coated surfaces
Paintable sealants exist for joints that will be coated. The choice depends on the specification and finish.
