About commercial sealant contractors in OX29

Mastic Doctor has been sealing joints for businesses and contractors since 2005: CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, five million pounds of public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators. If your site needs RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, say so and we’ll confirm with the quote. Site teams most often ask us about water staining near frames, panels or ceilings and gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks, on washrooms and tea points, window and door perimeters and external facade joints.

On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself usually taking anything from part of a day on a short run of joints to several weeks on a large phased package.

  1. First, details reach us through the quote form or a site visit.
  2. We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
  3. Work is phased around your occupiers where areas need to stay in use.
  4. Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
  5. A suitable product for each joint goes in at the right depth and is tooled.
  6. We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.

What you’ll pay

The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Shops, offices and hotels in OX29

Across OX29, from Witney, Cogges and Eynsham to the smaller places between, commercial buildings run from high-street shops and offices to hotels, schools and business parks. We cover the whole area, so occupiers with several sites can use one contractor and one point of contact, with colours matched site to site where the brand needs it.

The South East is one of the UK’s drier regions, though outside work in OX29 still waits for dry faces, and cold mornings bring frost and condensation on steel and glass.

Eynsham: If you run an office at a site such as Oasis Business Park, 0.5 miles to the south of Eynsham, the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out. Occupiers with premises at both Oasis Business Park and Horizon Technology Park could have the sealant at each handled under one quote.

Aftercare for building managers

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Act on the first lifting edges rather than waiting
  • Log reseals in the O&M or maintenance records
  • Don’t let cleaning or traffic back on before the cure time is up
  • On pre-2000 buildings, share the asbestos information before work starts

Later works are the usual way new joints get damaged. When fittings are moved or cabling added, the sealant nearby is easily disturbed, and it’s easy to forget to reseal afterwards. If that happens, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll price putting it right.

A failed external joint lets water in every time it rains. Behind a panel or frame, that water can sit unseen for a long time. Resealing early keeps the problem in the sealant and out of the building.

What we’re called out for in OX29

If only one face has lost its grip, that’s an adhesion failure. The usual causes are poor preparation, a missed primer, contamination on the joint face or sealant bonded to the base of the joint. We see it often where joints were sealed in a hurry.

Most enquiries start with something like this:

  • Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
  • Damp patches where an external joint has failed
  • Earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead
  • Shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks

Why act early?

A cheaper quote sometimes means the old bead stays in. Sealing over looks tidy at handover, then lifts once the joint starts moving. Every quote we give includes full removal and preparation, because that’s what makes the new bead last.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
  • How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
  • Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
  • How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?

Building owners, agents and FMs in OX29

For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.

If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.

Honest limits

Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:

  • A dripping trap, valve or pipe behind a fitting
  • Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
  • Leaking roofs, gutters or flat-roof membranes (those need a roofer)

Questions we’re asked in OX29

Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?

The paperwork is agreed with the quote: RAMS, an insurance certificate and CSCS details are the usual requests. Every applicator holds a CSCS card.

Will your applicators have CSCS cards?

Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, as many construction sites ask for.

How soon can the area be used again?

Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.

Can you take on work for an FM or managing agent?

Yes. We quote, schedule and report back in the way that suits your process.

Do you work in OX29?

Yes. We cover OX29, and the simplest way to start is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Can areas stay open during the work?

We phase the work so parts of the building stay open. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.
