Frames, entrances and external joints in Brookside
Rainfall across the South East, Brookside included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first. Brookside is about 26 miles from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
If you own or manage units on a site such as Ascot Business Park (1.4 miles south of Brookside), failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Student blocks close to universities like Imperial College Silwood Park Campus (to the south-east of Brookside) are easiest to work on between tenancies. If you’re responsible for a building such as Chapel of St Mary and St John, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.
Brookside is about 3 miles east of Wick Hill, in Bracknell Forest.

Looking after the joints
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and the complaints that come with it.
Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Frames vary from uPVC to aluminium and timber, so the grade we pick has to bond to frame and wall alike. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Tenement and older buildings
Natural stone can be marked by the wrong sealant, so we pick a grade that won’t mark it.
Our process
A typical day starts with protection: tape along each joint edge and covers over finishes, stock and equipment close by. On site, the work usually takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For work around Brookside, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Move anything stored against the joints

Related advice
Why act early in Brookside
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too, and the complaints come with it. Converted and older buildings near places like Brookside tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
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 will have a fixed figure to work with.

- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Travel to remote or island sites
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.

There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
