How we handle mastic sealing in Hollington
We diagnose before we prescribe: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in, with backing rod setting the depth where it’s needed. We work on external wall and movement joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and communal entrances and stairwells, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are no planned programme for sealant and occupiers reporting cold air round windows. Searching for sealant specialists in Hollington? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
For owners with a single building near Hollington, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Send photos of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Common questions from Hollington clients
Can you quote for a block close to Kintbury station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Is Hollington too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
We can. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn, and the programme can start with the worst.
How do you handle work on occupied blocks?
The work is planned around occupiers. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers, and entrances stay in use.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
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.
When can the area be used after sealing?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry 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.
Quoting for work in Hollington
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- The total length or number of joints
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.
What to include in your enquiry
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- The product your specification calls for
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to discuss it first.
On site: what to expect
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. For work around Hollington, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
What we need from you
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Flag any permit to work we’ll need
Getting a fixed quote
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Send what you have, and we’ll arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.

General trades versus a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Owners, agents and contractors
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Frames, entrances and external joints in Hollington
At about 57 miles from central London, Hollington is within reach of the capital. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building normally need attention first.
Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Kintbury station (4.9 miles north-west of Hollington) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. Site managers at schools like St Thomas' Church of England Infant School can fit frame mastic into the summer works. If you’re responsible for a building such as Church of St Thomas, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

What the job involves on each surface
Communal areas
Low-level communal joints get damaged more than most and tend to fail first.
External movement joints
The joint width has to suit the movement and the sealant’s capability with the width-to-depth ratio set as the manufacturer advises.
