Mastic sealing across Shilton
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
How we handle mastic sealing in Shilton
There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. 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. Site teams most often ask us about movement joints with sealant missing and communal area joints that look neglected, across communal entrances and stairwells, balcony and threshold joints and window and door perimeters on blocks. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Shilton tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Shilton tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Honest limits
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint

- Broken glass or failed sealed units

Building owners, agents and FMs in Shilton
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.
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- How much there is to seal
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Joint width, depth and condition
- How much existing material needs removing
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Before you send an enquiry
There’s no need for a formal survey. These details are enough to start:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- When you need the work done
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Planned mastic for Shilton portfolios
Shilton 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. Shilton lies roughly 68 miles out from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres.
If you own or manage units on a site such as West Oxon. Industrial Park (1.5 miles south-east of Shilton), failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Older buildings near Shilton, from historic houses such as Minster Lovell Hall, 4 miles to the north-east of Shilton, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. If you’re responsible for a building such as Church of the Holy Rood, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

Common questions from Shilton clients
Will you price a mastic programme across our Shilton portfolio?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
Does your area include sites such as West Oxon. Industrial Park, near Shilton?
Yes, sites like West Oxon. Industrial Park are within our area, along with the rest of Shilton. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
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.
Is asbestos a concern with old mastic?
We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on in line with the dutyholder’s asbestos management.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
Can weather delay the job?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Which sealant will you use?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
