Commercial sealant contractors in SO20: how it works
Failed sealant isn’t always the whole story. A leak near a frame edge can start in the frame, the cill or the cavity while a movement joint that keeps tearing may simply be too narrow for the job. Part of the job is telling you when the fix is something other than sealant, so budgets go where they’ll do some good. Site teams most often ask us about layers of sealant, all of them failing and shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks, across floor and threshold joints, washrooms and tea points and kitchen worktops and splashbacks.
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work typically takes as long as the agreed scope needs, from a single visit to a programme spread over several weeks, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go.
- First, details reach us through the quote form or a site visit.
- The cause is diagnosed and the scope priced as a fixed quote.
- Where parts of the building must stay open, the work is phased.
- Old sealant is cut out completely, never sealed over.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.

Landmarks near Broughton
We work on buildings around Broughton Primary School, Church of St Mary the Virgin and The Tally Ho Public House. The closest station to Broughton is Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, roughly 4.3 miles south of the centre.
Commercial premises across SO20
The commercial stock in SO20 mixes older town-centre buildings with newer offices and units, in places such as Hyde, Highcliffe and Winnall and beyond. Surfaces decide the sealant, from masonry to powder-coated frames and shop-fit panels.
All of Greater London is inside the ULEZ, and much of the South East is within easy reach of the capital, so jobs in SO20 are planned with access, loading and parking in mind.
Broughton: For any commercial premises in Broughton, a lasting joint depends on full removal of the old sealant and clean, dry faces. For premises near Mottisfont & Dunbridge station, which lies south of Broughton, footfall is part of the plan: work is phased so shops and offices keep trading.
How the job changes by surface
Washrooms and toilets
Around WCs, urinals, vanity tops, IPS panels and cubicles, sealant is wet most of the day. We cut out mouldy or split beads and reseal in anti-mould sanitary silicone.
Window and door perimeters
Internally, window boards and frame edges often have decorators’ caulk or silicone that has cracked. The product depends on whether the joint will be painted.
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.
Redoing a failed joint typically 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.
Maintenance after handover
Once the work is signed off, a little attention goes a long way:
- Brief cleaning contractors to avoid scourers and blades on sealant
- Respect the cure time before reopening an area
- Add sealant to the planned maintenance inspection list
- On pre-2000 buildings, share the asbestos information before work starts
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. Keep the handover details with your O&M or maintenance records.
Once sealant fails in a movement joint, grit and debris get in. The joint can no longer close, so its edges crack or spall. At that point it’s a repair job rather than a reseal.
Honest limits
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- A failed roof covering or waterproofing membrane
- A dripping trap, valve or pipe behind a fitting
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
Cost factors for sealant joints
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Working within restricted access windows
- How accessible the joints are
- Joint width, depth and condition
- How much existing material needs removing
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Before you send an enquiry
We can often quote from photos and a few details. It helps to include:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Specification clauses that apply
- When you need the work done

FAQs: SO20
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. We’re fully insured for public liability as well.
Will your applicators have CSCS cards?
Yes. We use CSCS-carded applicators, which many sites require.
How long will the new sealant last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Do you work in SO20?
Yes. SO20 is in our area and the rest of Hampshire, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Send your site requirements with the enquiry, and we’ll confirm the RAMS, insurance and CSCS details with the quote. From you, we’ll need the asbestos information for older buildings and any site rules.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
What about asbestos in old mastic?
On older buildings, our first request is the asbestos survey. Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility.
