Our process
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself usually taking a few days for most blocks, with larger programmes scheduled building by building. Rural sites near Hungerford Green may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Advice
About our mastic sealing in Hungerford Green
Before work starts, most agents and landlords want the documents in order. For documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We’re a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and we carry public liability insurance. Most enquiries involve complaints coming in block by block and patchy repairs in mismatched sealant, on window and door perimeters on blocks, balcony and threshold joints and communal kitchens and washrooms. Most enquiries from Hungerford Green start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Around smaller places like Hungerford Green, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

How the quote is worked out
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Phasing around occupants
- The total length or number of joints
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
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.
What to include in your enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Your programme or deadline
A good quote starts with a clear picture: 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.

Leave it or put it right?
Reacting to every complaint means sending someone out block by block. A planned programme treats each building once and is simpler to manage and budget. Converted and older buildings near places like Hungerford Green tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
- CHAS accredited
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- Colour options checked against the specified product

For owners and agents in Hungerford Green
Hungerford Green is about 47 miles from central London. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are usually where frame mastic ages first.
If your remit includes a building such as The Downs School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. For agents with blocks near Goring & Streatley station, 2.9 miles to the east of Hungerford Green, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. Churches, halls and community buildings such as St Mary's church are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.

Questions about Hungerford Green
Is Hungerford Green too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Hungerford Green is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Will you take on a block within reach of Goring & Streatley station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
There is a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, backed by public liability insurance.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it and suspect material is tested first.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work, and we quote building by building or as a programme.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Looking after the joints
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.
