About our mastic sealing in Hook
Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint and we quote and schedule each building in turn. If you have worn sealant at communal door frames and damp patches beside frames, we can help, whatever the surface. For commercial sealant work in Hook, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
For landlords and associations with stock in and around Hook, grouping buildings into one visit saves travel. One quote can cover a whole list of addresses.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Blocks and managed buildings in Hook
Hook is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. At about 40 miles from central London, Hook is within reach of the capital. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.
For owners of several units at places like Murrell Green Business Park, 1 mile to the east of Hook, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. If your remit includes a building such as Hook Junior School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.
Hook is about 5 miles west of Fleet, in Hampshire. Across the RG27 postcode area, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Our Hampshire coverage takes in 723 places, large and small. Sites around Reading have their own page, about 11 miles away.
Commercial sites across RG27 are covered for mastic joints. Streets here include London Road, Station Road and Rookswood Close. Hook sits on or close to the B3349, useful when we plan access and materials. We also cover Hook Common (1 mile south-west), Murrell Green (1 mile east), Warnborough Green (1 mile south), Newnham (1 mile west) and Nately Scures (2 miles south-west) for mastic joints. Further afield, our area takes in Basingstoke (6 miles west), Farnborough (8 miles east), Fleet (5 miles east), Aldershot (9 miles east), Alton (9 miles south) and Yateley (7 miles north-east).
What’s near Hook
We work on buildings around Robert May's School, among other places. There’s a railway station in Hook itself: Hook station. Other landmarks nearby include Odiham Castle (1.6 miles south) and West Green House Agricultural Museum (1.6 miles north-east). Open spaces near Hook include Tundry Hill and Dogmersfield Lake.
Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
Window and door perimeters are where most mastic failure shows. Old perimeter mastic is removed, the joint prepared and new sealant tooled in.
Planned maintenance
Mastic wears out like any building component; how fast comes down to movement, weather, UV and the product. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.
What happens if it’s left?
Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. A planned programme treats each building once, under a single quote and a single programme. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.

Common problems we fix in Hook
Previous repairs often sealed new mastic over old. New silicone has nothing to grip on old silicone, so these repairs rarely last.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- No planned programme for sealant
If you look after a block within reach of Hook station, which lies south-west of Hook, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.
What your quote should include
- Their public liability cover
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
What affects the price in Hook
What shapes the price:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Any access equipment needed
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- When you need the work done
- Any specification or named product
- Access details, including height
- Clear photos of the problem areas
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
How a job runs
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. For a job in Hook, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Preparing the site

Advice
Hook: questions and answers
We manage a building near Hook station. Can you help?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Is Hook too far out for you?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
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 will confirm with the quote.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Occupiers stay in the building throughout. If any flats or units need access, we’ll tell you in advance so it can be arranged.
Can weather delay the job?
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.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
How soon can the area be used again?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.
For managing agents and facilities managers
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Hook can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Hampshire.
