Common questions from Bishop's Waltham clients

Is Bishop's Waltham too far out for you?

Not at all. Bishop's Waltham is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Can you work at a site such as Swanmore Business Park, by Bishop's Waltham?

Yes, sites like Swanmore Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Bishop's Waltham. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

How many days will you need on site?

We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

How do we ask for a quote?

The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.

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 it can be arranged.

What paperwork can you provide?

We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.

Is any job too small?

Whatever the size, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.

Mastic sealing in Bishop's Waltham

Different joints need different sealants. Window perimeters and external joints often take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product. Most enquiries involve window mastic that has split and shrunk and failed external movement joints, on communal kitchens and washrooms, external wall and movement joints and balcony and threshold joints. Whoever orders the work in Bishop's Waltham, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.

Owners with buildings around smaller places like Bishop's Waltham often group mastic work so one visit covers several properties. One quote can cover a whole list of addresses.

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.

Should maintenance staff do it?

Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bishop's Waltham

Reacting to every complaint means sending someone out block by block. Planned resealing covers a whole building or estate in one go and is simpler to manage and budget. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.

The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Why appoint us

  • CHAS accredited
  • Our applicators hold CSCS cards
  • Colour options checked against the specified product
  • Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months

Mastic sealing in Bishop's Waltham: the local picture

Bishop's Waltham sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside work still depends on dry joints, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first. Bishop's Waltham is about 61 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.

For owners of several units at places like Swanmore Business Park, 1.2 miles to the south-east of Bishop's Waltham, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. For a school such as Bishop's Waltham Junior School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Botley station (3.3 miles south-west of Bishop's Waltham) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.

Bishop's Waltham is about 5 miles north-east of Hedge End, in Hampshire. Our applicators travel to Bishop's Waltham for work on mastic joints, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Bishop's Waltham is one of 723 places in Hampshire on our list for mastic joints. We also cover Southampton, some 8 miles away.

Commercial sites across SO32 are covered for mastic joints. For a building on High Street, St Georges's Square and Station Road or nearby, we can quote for mastic joints.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Bishop's Waltham need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.

  1. We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
  2. A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
  3. Failed mastic is removed completely.
  4. The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
  5. We finish each building before moving to the next.

Cost factors for mastic joints

To price the job, we consider:

  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Any access equipment needed

We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

What we need to price the job

Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:

  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Where the site is, with the postcode

Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.

Aftercare for building managers

Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:

  • List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
  • Reduce knocks to communal area joints
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
  • Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings

Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. It helps plan the next round and shows what was done.

Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first and the job grows.

When something else is needed

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:

  • Glazing that needs replacing
  • Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
  • Materials that need asbestos testing before work

If you are not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.
