Mastic sealing in Parslow's Hillock
Different joints need different sealants. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many window perimeters and external movement joints, while hybrid polymer sealants grip many materials and are often paintable, and colours are confirmed for whichever product is used. If you have repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors, we can help, on external wall and movement joints, communal entrances and stairwells and balcony and threshold joints alike. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Parslow's Hillock first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
For buildings around smaller places like Parslow's Hillock, we group work so one trip covers it. Send photos of the frames and joints and we will give a fixed quote.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Leave it or put it right?
Dealing with failed joints one report at a time is slow and scattered. Planned resealing covers a whole building or estate in one go, under a single quote and a single programme. Around Parslow's Hillock, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
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 will put a fixed figure on it.

When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
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 typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
Quoting for work in Parslow's Hillock
What shapes the price:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Distance, for remote addresses
- How much existing material needs removing
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Specification clauses that apply
- When you need the work done
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
What we are called out for in Parslow's Hillock
Many failed joints were sealed without backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. It can’t stretch properly and splits as the building moves.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
If you look after a block within reach of Princes Risborough station, which lies west of Parslow's Hillock, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.

- Their public liability cover
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
How the job changes by surface
Tenement and older buildings
Some old mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos and the register is checked before anything is disturbed. Suspect material is tested before work continues.
Planned maintenance
We can work into your cyclical maintenance plan on a timetable you set.
Our process
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. For work around Parslow's Hillock, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
What we need from you
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

How do you handle work on occupied blocks?

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
