Commercial clients in Hinchley Wood
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Mastic sealing in Hinchley Wood
We diagnose before we prescribe: what has failed, what caused it and whether new sealant will actually solve it. Failed mastic is stripped, the faces taken back to sound material, primed where the manufacturer specifies and resealed, with backing rod setting the depth where it’s needed. Site teams most often ask us about movement joints with sealant missing and no planned programme for sealant, on communal kitchens and washrooms, communal entrances and stairwells and external wall and movement joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Hinchley Wood, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Places the size of Hinchley Wood normally have some housing association stock, small blocks and mixed-use buildings. Their window perimeters and external joints need renewing as the mastic ages.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

General trades versus a specialist
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example 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.
Hinchley Wood: questions and answers
Can you quote for a block close to Hinchley Wood station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Will you take on work at estates like Barwell Business Park, close to Hinchley Wood?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Hinchley Wood, Barwell Business Park among them, are all within reach. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
How many days will you need on site?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
Can people stay in the building while you reseal?
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 communal access is kept open.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. If old sealant is suspected, work stops until it’s tested, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
We do. 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.
Looking after the joints
For the best life from the joints:
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
Encourage occupiers to report water or draughts at frames. A quick report keeps a small repair small.
One failed perimeter typically means others on the same building are close so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly before you book.
