Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Binsted
Owners and agents typically inherit a building’s mastic rather than choose it, and it ages quietly: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow, and occupiers start reporting it. If you are dealing with the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and water getting in round frames after rain, we can help. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Binsted? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Binsted 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.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. If others near Binsted need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Let building users know which areas are affected
Getting a fixed quote
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

What sealant work can’t fix
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- External wall and movement joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
Do you need mastic sealing in Binsted?
Much failed sealant was laid on dirty, dusty or damp surfaces. Where the faces weren’t cleaned or primed as specified, the bead peels off one side.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Complaints coming in block by block
For agents with blocks near Bentley (Hampshire) station (1.5 miles north-east of Binsted), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.

What happens if it’s left?
Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows, and the complaints come with it. Converted and older buildings near places like Binsted tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

Common questions from Binsted clients
Will you take on a block within reach of Bentley (Hampshire) station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Binsted, such as Blacknest Industrial Park?
Yes. We cover Binsted and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Blacknest Industrial Park. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can people stay in the building while you reseal?
Residents and tenants carry on as normal. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so you can arrange it with occupiers.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned and we’ll confirm the approach in the quote.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- The total length or number of joints
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The product specified
- Whether the work must be split into stages
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Details that help us quote
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Specification clauses that apply
- The type of building and who uses it
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
