Common questions from Hightown clients
Is Hightown too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Will you take on work at estates like Platinum Jubilee Business Park, close to Hightown?
Yes. We cover Hightown and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Platinum Jubilee Business Park. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
How soon can the area be used again?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Occupiers stay in the building throughout. If any flats or units need access, we will tell you in advance so it can be arranged.
Is any job too small?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Mastic sealing in Hightown
For blocks and buildings in Hightown and across Hampshire, the process is the same: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. A list of buildings, a few photographs and approximate joint numbers are enough for a quick quote, and site visits can be arranged. Most enquiries involve window mastic that has split and shrunk and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, on shopfronts below residential blocks, balcony and threshold joints and external wall and movement joints. For commercial sealant work in Hightown, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around smaller places like Hightown, 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.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

How a job runs
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. Rural sites near Hightown may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- 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.
- 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.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints

Advice
Signs you need mastic sealing in Hightown
Many failed joints were sealed without backing rod so the mastic is bonded on three sides. That three-sided adhesion stops it stretching and it tears.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Water getting in round frames after rain
Landlords with units on estates such as Platinum Jubilee Business Park, 0.5 miles to the west of Hightown, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

What affects the price in Hightown
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Any access equipment needed
A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:

Looking after buildings in and around Hightown
Hightown is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first. There are four care or nursing homes within about 2 miles of Hightown. Care home owners need frame and external mastic kept sound without unsettling residents.
Schools and community buildings such as Ringwood Junior School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building. Older buildings near Hightown, from historic houses such as Avon Tyrrell House (to the south of Hightown) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.

What sealant work can’t fix
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We will tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- External wall and movement joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. In particular:
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Group repairs into a planned programme
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. It helps plan the next round and gives you a history.
Joints on a building age together so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. Doing them together saves going back again and again.
