How we handle mastic sealing in Asheridge
Across Asheridge and the rest of Buckinghamshire, we work the same way: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. Addresses, photographs of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote, and site visits can be arranged. Most enquiries involve window mastic that has split and shrunk and patchy repairs in mismatched sealant, on window and door perimeters on blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and balcony and threshold joints. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Asheridge, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Asheridge tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Maintenance after handover
After handover, these steps help:
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.
One failed perimeter usually means others on the same building are close, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
Questions about Asheridge
Does your area include sites such as Waterside Business Park, near Asheridge?
Yes. Our area takes in Asheridge and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Waterside Business Park included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Will you take on a block within reach of Great Missenden station?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we’ll quote and plan to suit.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. We work through buildings in a planned order with dates agreed in advance.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
What the job involves on each surface
External movement joints
Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Fresh joints make shared areas look looked after.
Work for main contractors and building owners
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
From enquiry to sign-off
Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. While we’re working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. If others near Asheridge need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

What else we do in Asheridge
What happens if it’s left?
Draughts round window perimeters cost occupiers comfort and the windows usually get the blame. Resealing the perimeters is often the simpler fix where the frames themselves are sound. Older rural buildings around Asheridge move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

When it isn’t the sealant
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Planned mastic for Asheridge portfolios
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are typically where frame mastic ages first. Asheridge is about 28 miles from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.
If your remit includes a building such as Chartridge Combined School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. If you own or manage units on a site such as Waterside Business Park, which lies south-east of Asheridge, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. For agents with blocks near Great Missenden station, 3.6 miles to the south-west of Asheridge, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.
