Mastic sealing near Bodicote

Mastic sealing in Bodicote
There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many window perimeters and external movement joints, and MS polymer sealants stick well to many substrates and often take paint. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product. We work on balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out and complaints coming in block by block. Searching for sealant specialists in Bodicote? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
In a smaller place such as Bodicote, landlords and agents tend to look after small blocks, flats over shops, sheltered housing and commercial units. The mastic around their frames and external joints ages like anywhere else.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

Building owners, agents and FMs in Bodicote
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
Where we work in Bodicote
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
What sets the cost
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It takes account of:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The size and state of each joint
- How much existing material needs removing
- Location, for remote and island sites
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Before you send an enquiry
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Access details, including height
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.
Different surfaces, different methods
Communal areas
Joints at low level in communal areas take knocks from bins, bikes and buggies and tend to fail first.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Where retail and residential share a building, so phasing has to suit both. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.

Common questions from Bodicote clients
Is Bodicote off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Will you work in a care home in Bodicote without moving residents out?
Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we will work to them.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order, and the programme can start with the worst.
What will the job cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. To get one, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with a description of the work.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work normally takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. For a job in Bodicote, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photographs of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Blocks and managed buildings in Bodicote
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building normally need attention first. Bodicote is about 64 miles from central London. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations.
If you are responsible for a building such as Church of St John the Baptist, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property. For agents with blocks near Banbury station (1.5 miles north of Bodicote), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. Schools and community buildings such as Longford Park Primary School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building.
Bodicote is about 2 miles south-east of Banbury, in Oxfordshire. Commercial clients in Bodicote use us for work on mastic joints, as part of our coverage of Oxfordshire. Bodicote is one of 423 places we cover in Oxfordshire. There’s a separate page for Oxford, roughly 20 miles from Bodicote.
Work on mastic joints is covered throughout OX15. If your site is on High Street, Dunnock Road and Oxford Road or close by, send details and we’ll quote for mastic joints. Nearby places we also cover include Grimsbury (2 miles north), Banbury (2 miles north-west) and Milton (2 miles south-west). Bigger towns within reach include Bicester (12 miles south-east), Kidlington (15 miles south), Bure Park (11 miles south-east), Chipping Norton (12 miles south-west), Woodstock (13 miles south) and Bloxham (3 miles south-west).
Local landmarks in Bodicote
Recent enquiries here include premises near English Language Training, Blessed George Napier Catholic School and Sports College and People's Park, among other places. The nearest railway station is Banbury station, roughly 1.5 miles north. A little further out are Bloxham Village Museum (2.7 miles south-west) and Horton General Hospital (1.2 miles north-west). Not far away are Farthinghoe Nature Reserve and Crouch Hill.
Why act early in Bodicote
Reacting to every complaint means sending someone out block by block. Planned resealing covers a whole building or estate in one go, under a single quote and a single programme. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
