Mastic sealing in Remenham Hill
We diagnose before we prescribe: 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, with backing rod setting the depth where it’s needed. Most enquiries involve communal area joints that look neglected and the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio, across shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints.

Why act early in Remenham Hill
Failed perimeter mastic lets cold air in around frames and the windows usually get the blame. Resealing the perimeters is often the simpler fix when the frames themselves are sound. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Remenham Hill, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Why choose Mastic Doctor in Remenham Hill
- Old sealant cut out, never sealed over
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
Remenham Hill: questions and answers
Do you take on block-wide or estate-wide mastic work in Remenham Hill?
Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
We manage a building near Henley-On-Thames station. Can you help?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Send the address, photographs of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed 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 if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. We work through buildings in a planned order with dates agreed in advance.
How long does a typical visit take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit normally takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. 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.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
It depends on the building. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so the fixed quote reflects it.
How the job changes by surface
Communal areas
Entrance doors, screens and corridor junctions in communal areas all have sealant joints. Tidy, sound joints keep them looking cared for.
Planned maintenance
Mastic wears out like any building component; how fast comes down to movement, weather, UV and the product. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.
For owners and agents in Remenham Hill
Remenham Hill is about 34 miles from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property. Rainfall across the South East, Remenham Hill included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building usually need attention first.
Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Henley-On-Thames station, 1.1 miles to the west of Remenham Hill, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. Historic properties like Greenlands (1.7 miles north of Remenham Hill) show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone. Site managers at schools like Rupert House School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.

Keeping the joints sound
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Share these points with them:
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.
One failed perimeter normally means others on the same building are close so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
