How we handle mastic sealing in Great Kimble
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If you’re dealing with failed external movement joints and communal area joints that look neglected, we can put it right, on window and door perimeters on blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and communal kitchens and washrooms alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, the work in Great Kimble is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Around smaller places like Great Kimble, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, in Great Kimble as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

Questions about Great Kimble
Is a smaller place like Great Kimble outside your area?
No. Places such as Great Kimble are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you work at a site such as Weston Way Industrial Estate, by Great Kimble?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Great Kimble, Weston Way Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
How long does a job like this take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.
What will the job cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. Send photographs or drawings and we’ll price it at a fixed figure.
Why it’s worth doing now in Great Kimble
Leaving failed external joints lets water reach the structure behind. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes and those cost far more to put right. Halls, stores and units around places like Great Kimble may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

How the job changes by surface
External movement joints
Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Blocks have a mix of frame materials, and the product is matched to the frame material and the masonry. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Planned mastic for Great Kimble portfolios
Great Kimble sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. 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. At about 35 miles from central London, Great Kimble is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres.
Schools and community buildings such as Great Kimble Church of England School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building. If you manage student housing near a university such as University Campus Aylesbury Vale, which lies north of Great Kimble, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic. For agents with blocks near Little Kimble station, under half a mile to the north-east of Great Kimble, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.
Great Kimble is about 5 miles south of Aylesbury, in Buckinghamshire. Across the HP17 postcode area, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. 308 places across Buckinghamshire fall within our area, including Great Kimble. Sites around Oxford have their own page, about 18 miles away.

A short drive away, we cover Aylesbury (5 miles north), High Wycombe (9 miles south), Chesham (9 miles east), Marlow (12 miles south), Amersham (10 miles south-east) and Beaconsfield (12 miles south-east).

Keeping the joints sound
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. After that, regular inspection keeps the programme on track.
Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
Sending details for a quote
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Any specification or named product
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us to discuss it first.
When something else is needed
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly.
