How we handle mastic sealing in Itchen Stoke

Treatment starts with a proper look: what has failed, what caused it and whether new sealant will actually solve it. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, window and door perimeters on blocks and balcony and threshold joints, and what we are called in for most is failed external movement joints and leaks at window and door perimeters. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Itchen Stoke is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.

Rural conversions near places like Itchen Stoke often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.

What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: 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.

Owners, agents and contractors

Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.

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 Itchen Stoke can sit alongside others in a wider programme.

Surface by surface

Planned maintenance

How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.

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.

For owners and agents in Itchen Stoke

At about 56 miles from central London, Itchen Stoke is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide. Itchen Stoke sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside work still depends on dry joints, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.

Older community buildings, St Mary's Church among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. If you own or manage units on a site such as Abbas Business Centre (1.2 miles west of Itchen Stoke), failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Older buildings near Itchen Stoke, from historic houses such as Hinton Ampner House (4 miles south-east of Itchen Stoke) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.

Itchen Stoke is about 5 miles north-east of Winchester, in Hampshire. Any commercial site in Itchen Stoke is covered, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Hampshire coverage takes in 723 places, large and small. Southampton is covered too, around 14 miles from Itchen Stoke.

Leave it or put it right?

Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Itchen Stoke, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.

The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Why appoint us

  • Over 20 years of commercial sealing
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job
  • Colour agreed before work starts
  • Old sealant cut out, never sealed over

Your questions answered

Is Itchen Stoke off your patch?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Is Abbas Business Centre, near Itchen Stoke, within your area?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Itchen Stoke, Abbas Business Centre among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

How do you handle work on occupied blocks?

We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it.

How much does the work cost?

It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll price it properly.

Do you seal on top of existing sealant?

No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

How soon can the area be used again?

We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.

How a job runs

Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. Rural sites near Itchen Stoke may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.

  1. We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
  2. A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
  3. We strip out the old sealant.
  4. The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
  5. We finish each building before moving to the next.

Getting the site ready

  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use

Request a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Honest limits

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:

  • Leaks from above rather than through a joint
  • Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
  • Glazing that needs replacing

If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Where we work in Itchen Stoke

  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • External wall and movement joints
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • Communal entrances and stairwells

Maintenance after handover

For the best life from the joints:

  • Log resealing dates block by block
  • Share your contractor requirements early
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
  • Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early

Ask residents or tenants to report draughts or leaks round windows early. Early reports catch failures before damage spreads.

Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first and the job grows.
