Mastic sealing in Palestine, done properly

For blocks and buildings in Palestine and across Hampshire, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. A list of buildings, a few photos and approximate joint numbers are enough for a quick quote, and site visits can be arranged. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, shopfronts below residential blocks and external wall and movement joints, and what we are called in for most is communal area joints that look neglected and the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Palestine, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.

In and around smaller places like Palestine, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.

We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

When something else is needed

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
  • Broken glass or failed sealed units
  • Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor

If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we seal

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

For owners and agents in Palestine

Palestine lies roughly 70 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building normally need attention first.

For agents with blocks near Grateley station, which lies north-east of Palestine, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. For a school such as Grateley Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. With historic buildings such as Idmiston Manor, 4.7 miles south-west of Palestine, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Palestine should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.

Palestine is in Hampshire. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Palestine can call on us for mastic joints, as part of our coverage of Hampshire. Across Hampshire, 723 places are covered, including Palestine. Sites around Southampton have their own page, roughly 20 miles from Palestine.

Nearby places we also cover include Grateley (1 mile north-east), Quarley (2 miles north), Over Wallop (2 miles south-east), Fox (2 miles north-east) and Kentsboro (3 miles east).

How the quote is worked out

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • The size and state of each joint
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Removal of failed or old sealant
  • Quantities, in metres or numbers

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

What we need to price the job

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:

  • Specification clauses that apply
  • Clear photos of the problem areas
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings
  • Your programme or deadline

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photos and a description will do.

Maintenance after handover

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:

  • Share your contractor requirements early
  • Group repairs into a planned programme
  • Protect low-level joints in entrances
  • Start inspections with the most exposed faces

Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Silicone typically can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it.

One failed perimeter typically means others on the same building are close so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. Doing them together saves going back again and again.

Questions we are asked in Palestine

Is a smaller place like Palestine outside your area?

No. Places such as Palestine are covered as much as the big towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

We manage a building near Grateley station. Can you help?

Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

For external joints, 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.

Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?

We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

How do you reach windows on upper floors?

We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we will confirm the approach in the quote.

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 to architects’ specifications?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.

When to bring in a specialist

For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.

Our process

When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, and the work normally takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Jobs in and around smaller places like Palestine are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. Each block or building is walked and the failed joints recorded with the likely cause.
  2. We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
  3. Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
  4. We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
  5. Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.

Getting the site ready

  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Point out any areas we must not close
  • Send your site hours and access windows

Getting a fixed quote

Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
