For owners and agents in Ellingham
Ellingham has four care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Frame mastic on care buildings is best renewed elevation by elevation, with the manager deciding timings. Rainfall across the South East, Ellingham included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. 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.
For a school such as Ringwood School Academy, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Property owners at sites such as Headlands Business Park, 1 mile to the south-east of Ellingham, can have mastic renewed between lettings.

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Ellingham
We diagnose before we prescribe: what has failed, what caused it and whether new sealant will actually solve it. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. If you have patchy repairs in mismatched sealant and no planned programme for sealant, we can help. Most enquiries from Ellingham start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For owners with a single building near Ellingham, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Send photos of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Do you need mastic sealing in Ellingham?
Buildings move with temperature and moisture, and the sealant takes up that movement. A joint that was too narrow, too thin or the wrong product can’t cope and fails early.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
- Communal area joints that look neglected
Trustees of buildings like Church of St Mary and All Saints can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Who will actually carry out the work
What sealant work can’t fix
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Communal kitchens and washrooms

From enquiry to sign-off
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint with your site contact. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Smaller jobs around Ellingham can be grouped with others nearby. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Advice
Work for main contractors and building owners
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Building owners and managing agents use us on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Ellingham. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Leave it or put it right?
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee. Around Ellingham, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Questions about Ellingham
Do you work in occupied care homes around Ellingham?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we will work to them.
Does your area include sites such as Headlands Business Park, near Ellingham?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Ellingham, Headlands Business Park among them, are all within reach. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
How long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
