Commercial sealant contractors across RG17: what to expect
Sealant joints are easy to overlook until one lets water in, and on a working site that typically surfaces as a leak, a stain or a complaint from occupiers. Mastic Doctor works as a commercial sealant contractor for facilities managers, managing agents and main contractors with sites in RG17. We find out why the sealant joints failed, take them out and seal again using a sealant that suits the joint. Site teams most often ask us about wall and floor joints that have lost their seal and hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations, across external facade joints, floor and threshold joints and washrooms and tea points.
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before the next one starts.
- First, details come to us: photographs, drawings or a schedule of the areas, or we arrange a site visit.
- We work out why the joints have failed and fix a quote for the agreed scope.
- We plan around your site hours and access windows, phasing the work where areas have to stay in use.
- The failed bead is removed and the joint faces cleaned until they’re sound and dry.
- Backing and primer go in where needed, then the chosen sealant is applied and tooled.
- We walk the completed areas with you and sign them off under the 12-month guarantee.

Commercial sealant contractors across RG17: the area picture
In RG17, much commercial sealant work follows refits in shops, offices and hotels in places such as Hungerford, Lambourn and Kintbury. Visible joints call for a matched colour and a clean tooled finish.
All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and much of the South East is within easy reach of the capital, so jobs in RG17 are planned with access, loading and parking in mind.
Hungerford: Shops and cafés around stations like Hungerford station (under half a mile north-east of Hungerford) trade from early, so work is timed around them. A hotel such as Three Swans Hotel, under half a mile to the north-east of Hungerford, shows how much sealant a hospitality building has on show, from bathroom joints to the bar.
When to bring in a specialist
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.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
What happens if it’s left?
Before budgeting for new frames, cubicles or worktops, check whether it’s just the sealant. In many cases the element is fine and only the seal around it has given up. Resealing normally costs far less than renewal.

Quoting for work in RG17
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The size and state of each joint
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Phasing around occupants
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Details that help us quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Your programme or deadline
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.

Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters
Inside, cracked sealant around frames and window boards is common. We use a paintable product where decorating follows and a silicone where it doesn’t, matched to the frame colour where colour matters.
Commercial kitchens and tea points
A smooth, continuous joint is easier to keep clean, which matters when environmental health officers look at a kitchen. We seal to a neat, cleanable finish and work around service times you agree with us.
Your questions answered
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.

What do you need from us to quote?
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are typically enough to start. If a visit is needed we’ll book one, and a fixed quote follows.
Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?
Yes, and through main contractors too. We quote, schedule and report back in the way that suits your process, with a 12-month guarantee on the workmanship.
Do you take on multi-site sealant work?
Yes, we can. Send a list of addresses and what’s needed at each, and fixed prices follow, with a suggested sequence.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.
How do you keep disruption to occupiers down?
Phased work can be planned so areas stay in use. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.
