Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Shedfield
We work for building owners, landlords with commercial or block portfolios, managing agents and housing associations. Many prefer a planned programme to one-off visits, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. If you have water getting in round frames after rain and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, we can help, whatever the surface. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Shedfield, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Shedfield tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

For owners and agents in Shedfield
Shedfield lies roughly 63 miles out from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property; their frame mastic often ages block-wide. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first.
Trustees of buildings like Church of St John can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list. If your remit includes a building such as St John the Baptist Church of England Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

Questions about Shedfield
Is a smaller place like Shedfield outside your area?
No. Places such as Shedfield are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you quote for a block close to Botley station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned and we’ll confirm the approach in the quote.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Keeping the joints sound
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Silicone usually can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.
What the job involves on each surface
External movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel joints let a building move. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Where retail and residential share a building, so phasing has to suit both. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.
Why it’s worth doing now in Shedfield
Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. Around Shedfield, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
A quote for mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.

Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we are in, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Rural sites near Shedfield may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll 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.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready

- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

Advice
What we’re called out for in Shedfield
Communal entrances and corridors see a lot of wear, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Cleaning products add to the wear.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
- Draughts at frames across a block
Landlords with units on estates such as Grange Farm Business Park, 0.8 miles to the north-west of Shedfield, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.

How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- The size and state of each joint
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Working within restricted access windows
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
