Questions we are asked in Sunnymead
Is Jordan Hill Business Park, near Sunnymead, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Sunnymead and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Jordan Hill Business Park included. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Sunnymead off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photos and a postcode.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Do you take on small jobs?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
Every block is different. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so the fixed quote reflects it.
Do you need to see the site first?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a visit.
About our mastic sealing in Sunnymead
For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Our applicators are CSCS-carded and we hold public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about occupiers reporting cold air round windows and mastic failing across several blocks on an estate, on external wall and movement joints, balcony and threshold joints and communal entrances and stairwells. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Sunnymead is the same: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In a smaller place such as Sunnymead, landlords and agents tend to look after small blocks, flats over shops, sheltered housing and commercial units. Their window perimeters and external joints need renewing as the mastic ages.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Sunnymead as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

What the job involves on each surface
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Where retail and residential share a building, so phasing has to suit both. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Planned maintenance
How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.
From enquiry to sign-off
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Sunnymead need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.
- 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.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
What we need from you
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed

When to bring in a specialist
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Why it’s worth doing now in Sunnymead
Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows and occupiers notice. For buildings in places like Sunnymead, one well-planned visit beats several small ones, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

What else we do in Sunnymead
How the quote is worked out
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we take into account:
- Working within restricted access windows
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Location, for remote and island sites
We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote.
What we need to price the job
We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Your programme or deadline
- Access details, including height
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
Maintenance after handover
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Group repairs into a planned programme
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over.
Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and saves internal repairs.
Block-wide mastic in Sunnymead
Sunnymead lies roughly 54 miles out from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres. Rainfall across the South East, Sunnymead included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.
Site managers at schools like Cutteslowe Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works. For owners of several units at places like Jordan Hill Business Park (0.7 miles north-west of Sunnymead), one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot. Older community buildings, Roman Catholic Church of St Gregory and St Augustine among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.
