Mastic sealing for businesses in Wickham Common

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

When it isn’t the sealant

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:

  • Glazing that needs replacing
  • Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
  • Materials that need asbestos testing before work

If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think.

Surfaces we seal

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

About our mastic sealing in Wickham Common

Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover and it slowly wears out: window perimeters, door frames, external joints and communal junctions all rely on it. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow, and occupiers start reporting it. If you are dealing with cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, we can help. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Wickham Common first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.

Around smaller places like Wickham Common, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.

We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

General trades versus a specialist

There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.

Different surfaces, different methods

Estate-wide resealing programmes

Consistent products and colours across an estate make future maintenance simpler.

External movement joints

Movement joints are cleaned out, backed with rod and resealed with a sealant of the right movement class.

How the quote is worked out

Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:

  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first

The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.

Before you send an enquiry

For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:

  • Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
  • Asbestos survey details if the building is older
  • The site address and postcode
  • Any specification or named product

To get a fixed quote, ring 01277 525 020 or email us, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. You can also send details through our quote form.

Why it’s worth doing now in Wickham Common

Reacting to every complaint means sending someone out block by block. A planned programme treats each building once, under a single quote and a single programme. Halls, stores and units around places like Wickham Common may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.

Why us?

  • Health and safety: CHAS accredited
  • A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
  • 12 months’ guarantee on every job
  • Fully insured, including public liability cover

For owners and agents in Wickham Common

Wickham Common 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 elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are usually where frame mastic ages first. At about 63 miles from central London, Wickham Common is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres.

If your remit includes a building such as Wickham Church of England Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Buildings close to stations like Fareham station, 2.8 miles south of Wickham Common, are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound. If you’re responsible for a building such as Church of St Nicholas, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

Wickham Common is about 3 miles north-east of Fareham, in Hampshire. Commercial clients in Wickham Common can call on us for mastic joints, as part of our coverage of Hampshire. We work across 723 places in Hampshire. There’s a separate page for Portsmouth, roughly 7 miles from Wickham Common.

Wickham Common: questions and answers

Will you take on work at estates like Knowle Village Business Park, close to Wickham Common?

Yes, sites like Knowle Village Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Wickham Common. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.

Will you take on a block within reach of Fareham station?

Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

Do you work with property factors and landlords?

We do. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.

Yes. We cover Wickham Common and the rest of Hampshire. For a quote, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Is mastic sealing guaranteed?

Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.

Can people stay in the building while you reseal?

Occupiers stay in the building throughout. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so you can arrange it with occupiers.

On site: what to expect

We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, to confirm the scope, the order of work and any areas we must keep clear. After that, any old or failed material is removed, each joint is prepared and the new sealant goes in. Jobs in and around smaller places like Wickham Common are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
  2. The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
  3. We strip out the old sealant.
  4. The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
  5. Buildings are completed in turn.

What we need from you

  • Make sure the joints can be reached
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use
