About our mastic sealing in Burkham
For blocks and buildings in Burkham and across Hampshire, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Addresses, photographs of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote or we can visit. If you have open joints in brickwork or panels and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors, we can put it right. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Burkham tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Burkham tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For work around Burkham, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
- A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Send your site hours and access windows
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

FAQs: Burkham
Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Burkham?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Send the addresses and photos and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Is Burkham off your patch?
No. Places such as Burkham are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?
Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. We work through buildings in a planned order with dates agreed in advance.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
We plan around people living or working in the building. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told, and entrances stay in use.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Planned maintenance
Adding mastic to planned maintenance avoids reactive repairs and spreads the work.
Tenement and older buildings
Some old mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos, so we check the asbestos register or survey first. Suspect material is tested before work continues.
Other services in Burkham
Common problems we fix in Burkham
In communal areas, joints take knocks from bins, bikes, buggies and deliveries, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Cleaning products add to the wear.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
Buildings close to stations like Alton station (to the south-east of Burkham) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.
What to look for in a quote
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Proof of insurance
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- The named product and why it was chosen
For managing agents and facilities managers
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Blocks and managed buildings in Burkham
Burkham is about 47 miles from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres. Burkham is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.
With historic buildings such as Hall Place (to the south of Burkham) in the wider area, owners of older properties around Burkham should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.
Burkham is about 4 miles north-west of Alton, in Hampshire. Anywhere in GU34, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Across Hampshire, 723 places are covered, Burkham among them. Reading is covered too, around 19 miles from Burkham.
We cover the GU34 postcode districts for mastic joints. If your building is just outside Burkham, we cover Bagmore (1 mile north-east), Bradley (1 mile south-west), Southrope (2 miles north-east), Bentworth (2 miles south) and Holt End (2 miles south). Further afield, our area takes in Basingstoke (6 miles north), Winchester (14 miles south-west), Farnborough (15 miles north-east), Fleet (12 miles north-east), Aldershot (14 miles east) and Alton (4 miles south-east).
Local landmarks in Burkham
The nearest railway station is Alton station, about 4.7 miles south-east. A little further out are Barton Castle (3.7 miles south-west) and Alton Community Hospital (4.4 miles south-east). Not far away are Farleigh Hill.
Maintenance after handover
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
Our workmanship is covered for 12 months, so report any failure in that time. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and saves internal repairs.
Why act early in Burkham
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee and one 12-month guarantee. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Burkham, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
Why appoint us
- Specification-led, product-correct work
- One number for every site we cover
- Colour options checked against the specified product
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
