Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Keeping the joints sound
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.
Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
How we handle mastic sealing in Nuneham Courtenay
Across Nuneham Courtenay and the rest of Oxfordshire, we work the same way: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. Addresses, photographs of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote or we can visit. Most enquiries involve no planned programme for sealant and draughts at frames across a block, across communal kitchens and washrooms, window and door perimeters on blocks and communal entrances and stairwells. Whoever orders the work in Nuneham Courtenay, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Around smaller places like Nuneham Courtenay, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll say what we think.

What the job involves on each surface
Communal areas
Joints at low level in communal areas take knocks from bins, bikes and buggies, so they often need renewing sooner.
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Housing associations and agents often manage many similar blocks. We quote building by building and work through them in turn.
General trades versus a specialist
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.

Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
We do. 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.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
We can. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn starting wherever is most urgent.
How soon can the area be used again?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Residents and tenants carry on as normal. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so you can arrange it with occupiers.
How long do sealant joints 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 inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Planned mastic for Nuneham Courtenay portfolios
Nuneham Courtenay lies roughly 49 miles out 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. Nuneham Courtenay sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.
If you own or manage units on a site such as Sandford Lane Industrial Estate, which lies north-west of Nuneham Courtenay, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Churches, halls and community buildings such as Church of St Peter are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time. Site managers at schools like Marsh Baldon Church of England Controlled School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.
