Southington: questions and answers

Is Ardglen Industrial Estate, near Southington, within your area?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Southington, Ardglen Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.

Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Overton station?

Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.

Can you seal joints high up on a block?

We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place, and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it.

How many days will you need on site?

That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit usually takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.

Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?

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.

How soon can the area be used again?

We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.

Yes. We cover Southington, and you can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to get started.

Mastic sealing in Southington, done properly

Across Southington and the rest of Hampshire, we work the same way: 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. The enquiries we see most involve window mastic that has split and shrunk and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors, across communal kitchens and washrooms, shopfronts below residential blocks and external wall and movement joints. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Southington, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

For owners with a single building near Southington, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Doing it in-house

Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.

On site: what to expect

In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before the next one starts. Jobs in and around smaller places like Southington are normally planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  2. The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
  3. Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
  4. Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
  5. Joints are resealed and tooled.
  6. We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Share your working hours and any access restrictions
  • Flag any permit to work we will need
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Ask for a quote

Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and a fixed quote will follow. To get it moving, call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Quoting for work in Southington

Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:

  • Any access equipment needed
  • Which sealant the job calls for
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • How much existing material needs removing

A quote for mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you are working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.

What we need to price the job

However big the job, these details speed things up:

  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
  • Any specification or named product
  • Where the site is, with the postcode

A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings to discuss it first.

Honest limits

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
  • Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
  • Glazing that needs replacing

Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Joints and surfaces we work on

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

Maintenance after handover

A few simple habits keep the new joints working:

  • Reduce knocks to communal area joints
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
  • Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
  • Keep a record of when each building was resealed

Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away and record where they are.

Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first.

Block-wide mastic in Southington

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first. Central London is about 54 miles from Southington. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.

If you look after a block within reach of Overton station (1.1 miles north-east of Southington), frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. Property owners at sites such as Ardglen Industrial Estate, 3 miles to the west of Southington, can have mastic renewed between lettings. If you are responsible for a building such as Church of St Mary, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

Southington is about 8 miles west of Basingstoke, in Hampshire. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Southington use us for work on mastic joints. Southington is one of 723 places in Hampshire on our list. Our Reading page has more on work in that area.

What happens if it’s left?

A bead run over old mastic can look like a repair. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts. Around Southington, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.

Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
