About our mastic sealing in Stoke
Owners and agents usually inherit a building’s mastic rather than choose it and it slowly wears out: it sits round windows and doors, along external joints and through communal areas. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow along with complaints. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, balcony and threshold joints and window and door perimeters on blocks, and what we’re called in for most is a mix of products and colours from past repairs and estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Stoke first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For buildings around smaller places like Stoke, we group work so one trip covers it. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.
Work we carry out in Hampshire comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will arrange a return visit.

Our process
Site rules come first: signing in, inductions and any permit to work. Once we’re cleared to begin, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you, and each area is checked before we leave it. Jobs in and around smaller places like Stoke are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs 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.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
Request a quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Advice
For managing agents and facilities managers
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Stoke can form part of a wider programme.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Blocks and managed buildings in Stoke
With the shore within about 1 mile, Stoke counts as a coastal location. For owners and agents with buildings near the sea, exposed elevations are where frame mastic fails first, and they deserve more regular inspection. Stoke lies roughly 61 miles out from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property.
Student accommodation around universities such as University of Portsmouth - Langstone Campus (to the south-west of Stoke) is typically managed block by block, which suits a planned mastic programme. Schools and community buildings such as The Hayling College need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building. Older community buildings, Church of St Peter among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.
Stoke is about 3 miles south of Havant, in Hampshire. Any commercial site in Stoke is covered, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Hampshire coverage takes in 723 places, from busy centres to rural villages.
We cover the PO11 postcode districts for mastic joints. We cover commercial and managed buildings on Havant Road, Rogers Mead and Northwood Lane. Stoke sits on or close to the A3023, which helps when planning parking and deliveries for the job. Sites close to Stoke are covered too, including North Hayling (1 mile east), Tye (1 mile east), Northney (1 mile north-east), Langstone (1 mile north) and Warblington (1 mile north). A short drive away, we cover Gosport (8 miles west), Havant (3 miles north), Fareham (10 miles west), Horndean (6 miles north), Waterlooville (5 miles north-west) and Petersfield (13 miles north).
Around Stoke
Locally, jobs take us to sites close to The Maypole pub, among other places. Stoke’s nearest station is Warblington station, about 2.4 miles north of the centre. Nearby you will also find Warblington Castle (1.8 miles north) and Havant Museum (2.1 miles north). The countryside around Stoke includes Hayling Billy.
General trades versus a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
How the job changes by surface
Communal areas
Joints at low level in communal areas take knocks from bins, bikes and buggies and tend to fail first.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
We typically work through a block’s windows in a planned order. How each joint is reached is agreed at quote stage.
When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Window and door perimeters on blocks

- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
Why deal with it now?
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too and occupiers notice. Converted and older buildings near places like Stoke tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
A quote for mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Your questions answered
Will you take on a block within reach of Warblington station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
Is Stoke off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. You get a fixed quote per building or for the whole job.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
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.
