How commercial sealant contractors works in RG26
Most commercial buildings carry hundreds of metres of sealant that nobody thinks about until it fails, and in an occupied building failure typically announces itself as a stained ceiling or an unhappy tenant. Mastic Doctor works as a commercial sealant contractor for facilities managers, managing agents and main contractors with sites in RG26. Our job is to diagnose the failure, remove the old bead and seal again using a product chosen for the movement and exposure. Most enquiries involve untidy joints in a reception, shop floor or lobby and layers of sealant, all of them failing, across washrooms and tea points, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and movement joints in walls and floors.
Diagnose, treat, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off.
- Site photographs, drawings or a visit tell us what’s there and how it has failed.
- You get a fixed quote covering removal, preparation and the new sealant.
- We agree the order of work, access windows and site hours with you.
- Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
- Backing goes in, the new sealant is laid and tooled, and the area is left neat.
- We hand back each area with its cure time and our 12-month guarantee.

Commercial sealant contractors across RG26: the area picture
In RG26, much commercial sealant work follows refits in shops, offices and hotels in places such as Tadley, Rooksdown and Bramley. Visible joints call for a matched colour and a clean tooled finish.
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, but external sealing in RG26 still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and damp or frosty mornings can hold it up.
Tadley: Refits at hotels like The Broomsquire Hotel (under half a mile north-east of Tadley) bring joints at vanity tops, bars and reception desks that guests see every day. On estates like Stacey Industrial Park, which lies north-east of Tadley, the office and welfare end of each unit has its own sealant to maintain.
Honest limits
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Misted, cracked or failed glazing units (a glazier’s job)
- A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane
- Cracking that needs a structural engineer to look at it
Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for example 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.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
What sets the cost
Quotes vary with the job. Expect it to depend on:
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- The product specified
- The size and state of each joint
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Details that help us quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The site address and postcode
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Owners, agents and contractors
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.
We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around RG26. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a failed joint rarely saves money. Water past a frame perimeter or a washroom joint can reach plasterboard, insulation, floor coverings and the ceiling below, which brings decorators and flooring contractors into the repair. Resealing while only the sealant has failed keeps the job small.
What your quote should include
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
Questions we’re asked in RG26
How do we get a quote?
Price depends on joint lengths and widths, how much removal is involved, the product, access and phasing. For a fixed quote, send details through our quote form.
Do you work directly for building managers?
Yes. Use our quote form to send the site details, or phone or email us, and tell us what site paperwork you need.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
Is it OK to apply fresh sealant over existing beads?
Every failed bead is cut out completely. New sealant can’t grip the old bead, so laying over it never lasts, and the faces are brought back to sound, dry material before resealing.
How do you keep disruption to occupiers down?
It’s normal for us to work in occupied buildings. We agree the order of areas, protect what’s nearby and close off only the section we are sealing for as long as the cure needs.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Is your work guaranteed?
Each job sits under our 12-month guarantee. Looking after the joints as we advise helps them last.
