Mastic sealing in Bracknell Forest: how it works
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Most enquiries involve estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out and open joints in brickwork or panels, across window and door perimeters on blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells.
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
What you will pay

Around Bracknell
We work on buildings around Market Inn, Holy Trinity Church and The Brakenhale School and the streets around them. You will also find Ranelagh School (under half a mile east) and Wildridings Primary School (0.5 miles south-west). There’s a railway station in Bracknell itself: Bracknell station. A little further out are The Lexicon (0.5 miles north) and Pinewood Hospital (2.6 miles south-west). Open spaces near Bracknell include Heath Lake and Wildmoor Heath.
Mastic sealing across Bracknell Forest: the area picture
Bracknell Forest has blocks, estates and mixed-use buildings looked after by agents, landlords and housing associations, in places such as Bracknell, Sandhurst and Wick Hill and beyond. Window and door perimeters and external joints on them need renewing as the mastic ages, and block-wide programmes deal with it in one go.
Around the motorway corridors of the South East, business parks and industrial estates are common, and we cover Bracknell Forest along with the rest of the region.
Bracknell: Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Bracknell station, less than half a mile north of Bracknell, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. If you manage student housing near a university such as Imperial College Silwood Park Campus, 4.6 miles east of Bracknell, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.
Surface by surface
Tenement and older buildings
Traditional buildings have joints that need a careful approach. The material either side of the joint shapes the product choice.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Frames vary from uPVC to aluminium and timber, and the product is matched to the frame material and the masonry. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Quoting for work in Bracknell Forest
What shapes the price:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The size and state of each joint
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Access and working height
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- Any specification or named product

Leave it or put it right?
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish.

FAQs: Bracknell Forest
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Do you take on small jobs?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
Who decides which product is used?
The specification comes first, if there is one. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Do you work in Bracknell Forest?
Yes. Bracknell Forest is in our area, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
Every block is different. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so there are no surprises.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
