Mastic man in North Ascot

Resealing and mastic work across North Ascot

North Ascot lies north of the A329 and west of the A332, beside Heatherwood Hospital and the village of Burleigh. Most of it is in Winkfield parish within Bracknell Forest, with a small part in the Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead. It is a place of two halves: large late-Victorian and Edwardian houses in spacious grounds, and a more modest estate of 1970s and 1980s homes.

Mr Mastic covers North Ascot from our base in Crawley, and both kinds of house keep us busy. In the older properties, we tend to reseal large bathrooms, kitchens and a lot of glazing. On the newer estate, it is more often a tired bath or shower, a worktop joint or a set of replacement windows whose mastic has given up. Mould is the usual complaint, and our article on why sealant goes mouldy explains what causes it.

Edwardian grandeur and a 1970s estate side by side

North Ascot’s large houses are concentrated around the edge of the racecourse and towards Windsor Great Park. Many date from the late Victorian and Edwardian years and have been modernised more than once. Their bathrooms are often in rooms that were never designed for them, with uneven walls and floors that make sealant joints wider and more irregular than in a modern house. We use backing rod where gaps are deep and tool each joint carefully so the finish still looks crisp.

These houses also have plenty of glass: bay windows, conservatories and garden rooms added over the years. Where glass meets frame, or a conservatory meets the main wall, the sealant takes a lot of movement and sun. Our glazing sealant work covers those joints.

The smaller homes around Gainsborough Drive, mostly from the 1970s and 1980s, have the typical problems of their age: acrylic baths that flex, original or second-generation kitchens with shrunk joints, and uPVC windows fitted a couple of decades ago with mastic that has hardened. These are quick, tidy jobs, and we can often do a whole house in a day.
