Mastic sealing in Aston Rowant

Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Mastic sealing in Aston Rowant

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. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about communal area joints that look neglected and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, on window and door perimeters on blocks, shopfronts below residential blocks and communal entrances and stairwells. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Aston Rowant, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

For buildings around smaller places like Aston Rowant, we group work so one trip covers it. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.

We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Surface by surface

Tenement and older buildings

Natural stone can be marked by the wrong sealant and we choose accordingly.

Window and door perimeters on blocks

Window and door perimeters are where most mastic failure shows. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.

Why it’s worth doing now in Aston Rowant

Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. A planned programme treats each building once, under a single quote and a single programme. Converted and older buildings near places like Aston Rowant tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.

The product called for affects the cost, 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.

Why appoint us

  • 12-month guarantee on workmanship
  • CHAS accredited
  • Sealing commercial buildings since 2005
  • Colours confirmed for the specified product

See our cost guide and our accreditations and insurance.

How the quote is worked out

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:

  • Access and working height
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • The site’s rules and procedures

Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.

Details that help us quote

For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:

  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • The site address and postcode
  • The type of building and who uses it

Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with what you know.

Aston Rowant: questions and answers

Is Aston Rowant too far out for you?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Aston Rowant?

Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.

Who decides which product is used?

If the job is specified, we follow the specification. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.

Is mastic sealing guaranteed?

Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.

How do you handle work on occupied blocks?

Residents and tenants carry on as normal. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so it can be arranged.

Do you work with property factors and landlords?

Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. We work through buildings in a planned order with dates agreed in advance.

When can the area be used after sealing?

Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day.

On site: what to expect

We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, 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. For work around Aston Rowant, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
  2. A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
  3. The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • Point out any areas we must not close
  • Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Common problems we fix in Aston Rowant

In communal areas, joints take knocks from bins, bikes, buggies and deliveries, and low-level joints get damaged. Regular cleaning wears them further.

Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:

  • Failed external movement joints
  • Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
  • Damp patches beside frames
  • No planned programme for sealant

If your remit includes a building such as Aston Rowant Church of England Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

Before you book anyone

  • Their pre-qualification and accreditations
  • What site paperwork they can supply
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
  • Their public liability cover

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

Mastic sealing around Aston Rowant: how the place shapes the job

Aston Rowant lies roughly 39 miles out from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate. Rainfall across the South East, Aston Rowant included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.

Older community buildings, Church of St Peter and St Paul among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. Property owners at sites such as Junction 5 Bates Industrial Estate (to the south-east of Aston Rowant) can have mastic renewed between lettings.

Aston Rowant is about 4 miles south of Thame, in Oxfordshire. We send applicators to Aston Rowant for mastic joints. We work across 423 places in Oxfordshire, from busy centres to rural villages. Sites around Oxford have their own page, roughly 13 miles from Aston Rowant.

We also cover Kingston Blount (1 mile north-east), Crowell (1 mile north-east), Lewknor (1 mile south-west), Postcombe (1 mile west) and South Weston (2 miles west) for mastic joints.

Honest limits

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
  • Broken glass or failed sealed units
  • Substrate edges that need repairing first

If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Communal entrances and stairwells
  • External wall and movement joints
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
