How mastic sealing works in Slough
For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and the work is backed by public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Slough carry our 12-month guarantee. Site teams most often ask us about repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and occupiers reporting cold air round windows, on external wall and movement joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and shopfronts below residential blocks.
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off.
- 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.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
What affects the price in Slough
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

For owners and agents in Slough
Buildings across Slough range from older blocks with replacement windows to recent developments. We inspect the whole building first, so you know which joints need doing now.
We work across Greater London and the South East counties, and every job in Slough starts with access, parking and site rules.
Slough: Older buildings near Slough, from historic houses such as Windsor Castle, 2.1 miles to the south of Slough, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. Landlords with units on estates such as Slough Business Park, under half a mile north-west of Slough, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.
Why deal with it now?
Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee.

Owners, agents and contractors
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Should maintenance staff do it?
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
How the job changes by surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Blocks have a mix of frame materials, and the product is matched to the frame material and the masonry. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
External movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel joints let a building move. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.
Why it fails
Many failed joints were sealed without backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. It can’t stretch properly and it tears.
Things that usually lead to an enquiry:
- Damp patches beside frames
- Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Complaints coming in block by block
Common questions from Slough clients
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
How much does the work cost?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Do you do block-wide mastic programmes?
Block-wide and estate programmes are common. You get a fixed quote per building or for the whole job.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Will you quote for a small job?
Whatever the size, the process is the same: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.
How long will the new sealant last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
