Mastic sealing in Woodend, done properly

In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is cut out and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. Most enquiries involve draught complaints from residents or tenants and the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio, on external wall and movement joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Woodend is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

In and around smaller places like Woodend, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.

The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Work for main contractors and building owners

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Woodend can form part of a wider programme.

After the work

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:

  • Log resealing dates block by block
  • Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
  • Reduce knocks to communal area joints
  • Group repairs into a planned programme

Keep records of when each building was resealed. It helps plan the next round and gives you a history.

Water getting in round frames can damage plaster, decoration and the frames themselves. Resealing early keeps the job small.

How the quote is worked out

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

  • The total length or number of joints
  • The product specified
  • Any access equipment needed
  • Whether the work must be split into stages

Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.

What we need to price the job

Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:

  • Any dates the work must fit around
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • A wide shot and a close-up of the area
  • The type of building and who uses it

Pricing a project or setting a maintenance budget? We will quote against your scope and drawings that you can work with. If you have questions first, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

Questions about Woodend

Can you quote for a block close to Botley 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.

Will you take on work at estates like Waltham Business Park, close to Woodend?

Yes, sites like Waltham Business Park are within our area, along with the rest of Woodend. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email us with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

How do you reach windows on upper floors?

It depends on the building. We agree access with you at quote stage so the fixed quote reflects it.

Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Do you work with property factors and landlords?

Yes, that’s exactly who this service is for. Buildings are scheduled in turn with dates agreed in advance.

What if the old mastic contains asbestos?

In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.

Can you follow the specification on our project?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.

How a job runs

Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Jobs in and around smaller places like Woodend are typically planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs 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. A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
  3. Failed mastic is removed completely.
  4. The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
  5. Buildings are completed in turn.

What we need from you

  • Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
  • Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
  • Share the asbestos register for older buildings

Ask for a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.

When something else is needed

Honesty saves time and money. New sealant won’t cure:

  • Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
  • Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
  • Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods

If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Where we work in Woodend

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

What the job involves on each surface

Planned maintenance

Planned resealing replaces emergency callouts and keeps budgets predictable.

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Mixed-use buildings combine shops below with flats or offices above, so phasing has to suit both. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.

For owners and agents in Woodend

Woodend lies roughly 61 miles out from central London. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations. Woodend sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building usually need attention first.

Landlords with units on estates such as Waltham Business Park (to the north-west of Woodend) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Botley station (to the west of Woodend) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. If your remit includes a building such as Swanmore College of Technology, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

Woodend is about 5 miles north of Fareham, in Hampshire. Anywhere in PO17, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Across Hampshire, 723 places are covered, including Woodend. Portsmouth is covered too, some 8 miles away.

We take on mastic joints across the PO17 postcode area, whatever the building. If your building is just outside Woodend, we cover Kingsmead (1 mile west), Soberton Heath (1 mile east), Mislingford (1 mile north-west), Newtown (1 mile south-east) and Southend (1 mile east).
