When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Colour variation across natural stone or brick that no single shade can match
- Exact bespoke colour matches beyond the product’s range
- Preventing all fading from sunlight and weathering
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer.

How we handle coloured sealant in Hucking
Where colour is critical, a sample bead in a discreet spot settles the question. Cured sealant may look a shade different from the wet bead, and lighting changes it again. Let us know who signs off colour, and we’ll fit the sample into the programme. If you are dealing with smeared sealant on stone or joinery and joints that need to match a new RAL frame colour, we can put it right. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Hucking, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
A job in a smaller place like Hucking is typically a single building. We’ll want a full list and photos first, so the right products come on the day and nothing waits for a second trip.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Shops, offices and hotels in and around Hucking
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That helps, but frost and condensation on glass and coated frames still stop outside sealing on some winter mornings. Hucking lies roughly 35 miles out from central London. The South East around the capital has large numbers of business parks, offices and retail centres, especially around the motorway corridors. Multi-site occupiers here often want one sealant contractor across all their buildings.
Offices and shops close to stations such as Hollingbourne station, 2.1 miles to the south of Hucking, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours. A lasting commercial joint around Hucking begins with the old bead fully out and the faces clean and dry.
Hucking is about 5 miles south-west of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Anywhere in ME17, it works the same way: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Hucking is one of 931 places in Kent on our list. We also cover London, some 35 miles away.

General trades versus a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
On site: what to expect
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. Jobs in and around smaller places like Hucking are usually planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We confirm the product the joint needs before talking about colour.
- We compare your RAL reference or sample with the colours made for that sealant.
- A short trial length can be approved before the full run on visible work.
- We remove the existing bead, clean the faces and set the depth.
- The coloured sealant is applied and tooled with clean, masked edges.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Questions we’re asked in Hucking
Is a smaller place like Hucking outside your area?
Not at all. Hucking is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What paperwork can you provide for a job in Hucking?
Whatever your site asks for, from RAMS to CSCS details, is confirmed when we quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Does the colour affect how the joint performs?
Colour is a choice within a product’s range, not a separate type of sealant. A properly prepared and tooled joint performs as the product intends, whatever the colour.
What do you charge?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote and we will price it properly.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards, which many sites require.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
What sets the cost
These are the things that shape the price:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Travel to remote or island sites
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.
What we need to price the job
Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Tell us:
- When you need the work done
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- Specification clauses that apply
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Why deal with it now?
A failed joint lets in water and dirt, whatever colour it is. Water through a split seal can stain or damage the surfaces next to it. Halls, stores and units around places like Hucking may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.
What you get with us
- Health and safety: CHAS accredited
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product
- Colour agreed before work starts
