About our mastic sealing in Hale Common
Managing agents and housing associations typically need paperwork before anyone starts. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance. If you have failed external movement joints and cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block, we can help, on balcony and threshold joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells alike. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Hale Common? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005.
Rural conversions near places like Hale Common often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Different surfaces, different methods
Planned maintenance
How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.
Tenement and older buildings
Some old mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.

Questions about Hale Common
Is Hale Common off your patch?
Not at all. Hale Common is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you work at a site such as Branstone Business Park, by Hale Common?
Yes. We cover Hale Common and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Branstone Business Park. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you need to see the site first?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photos, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
How a job runs
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area.

Work for main contractors and building owners
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Hale Common can form part of a wider programme across the Isle of Wight.
Leave it or put it right?
Failed perimeter mastic lets cold air in around frames, and they often blame the windows. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it when the frames themselves are sound. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Hale Common. 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: 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.
Why appoint us
- Fully insured
- Fixed quotes based on photos, drawings or a visit
- One contact handling all your sites
- Matching to RAL references, product permitting

General trades versus a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Planned mastic for Hale Common portfolios
Hale Common sits close to the coast, within about 3 miles. Blocks and commercial buildings facing the sea take the most weather on their window perimeters and external joints; plan inspections around that. The South East is one of the drier 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.
If you look after a block within reach of Shanklin station, which lies south-east of Hale Common, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. If your remit includes a building such as Newchurch Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.
Hale Common is about 3 miles north-west of Shanklin, in the Isle of Wight. We cover Hale Common, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Hale Common is one of 125 places we cover in the Isle of Wight. For work in that direction, see our Portsmouth page.
