Your questions answered
Is Fronds Park Business Park, near Upper Woolhampton, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Upper Woolhampton, Fronds Park Business Park among them, are all within reach. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Midgham station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
Outside, 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.
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 suspect material is tested first.
Do you do block-wide mastic programmes?
Yes, planned programmes suit estates and portfolios. The quote can be split however suits your budgeting.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No, never. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so it all comes out first.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.

When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
What we seal
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
Our process
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. Rural sites near Upper Woolhampton may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
What we need from you
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
Getting a fixed quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Maintenance after handover
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over unless told otherwise.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.
When to bring in a specialist
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.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Why it’s worth doing now in Upper Woolhampton
Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee. Halls, stores and units around places like Upper Woolhampton may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
