About our mastic sealing in Hitchambury
Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover, and it ages quietly: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow, and occupiers start reporting it. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, window and door perimeters on blocks and external wall and movement joints, and what we are called in for most is brittle perimeter mastic across a building and no planned programme for sealant. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Hitchambury, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In and around smaller places like Hitchambury, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Advice
Hitchambury: questions and answers
Is Marshgate Trading Estate, near Hitchambury, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Hitchambury, Marshgate Trading Estate among them, are all within reach. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can work in a care setting near Hitchambury go ahead while residents are there?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Noise and disruption are kept to a minimum.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we’re given. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. Send photos or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Does the weather affect the work?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

Common problems we fix in Hitchambury
Buildings move with temperature and moisture, and every joint has to stretch and squeeze with them. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits long before it should.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
With historic buildings such as Cliveden, 1.7 miles to the north of Hitchambury, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Hitchambury should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.

What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
