Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
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.
How we handle mastic sealing in Monxton
Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you so you can let residents know what is happening. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use throughout. Most enquiries involve brittle perimeter mastic across a building and patchy repairs in mismatched sealant, on balcony and threshold joints, window and door perimeters on blocks and external wall and movement joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Monxton tend to want the same three things: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Rural conversions near places like Monxton often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.

Quoting for work in Monxton
What shapes the price:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Any access equipment needed
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Your programme or deadline
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Specification clauses that apply
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
Keep bins, bikes and deliveries away from low-level joints where you can. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.
One failed perimeter usually means others on the same building are close, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
Monxton: questions and answers
Can you work at a site such as Plot 5 Andover Business Park, by Monxton?
Yes, sites like Plot 5 Andover Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Monxton. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Andover station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we’ll quote and plan to suit.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
How long will the new sealant last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Who decides which product is used?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
On site: what to expect
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 before we move to the next. Rural sites near Monxton may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- 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
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Point out any areas we must not close
Getting a fixed quote
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

Window and door perimeters on blocks
We typically work through a block’s windows in a planned order. Access is agreed with you before the quote is fixed.
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Housing associations and agents often manage many similar blocks. We quote building by building and work through them in turn.
Common problems we fix in Monxton
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and the sealant takes up that movement. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits and fails early.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- No planned programme for sealant
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
For owners of several units at places like Plot 5 Andover Business Park, 1.2 miles to the north-east of Monxton, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot.

At about 66 miles from central London, Monxton is within reach of the capital. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres.
If your remit includes a building such as Amport Church of England Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. If you look after a block within reach of Andover station, which lies east of Monxton, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.
