When something else is needed
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Leaking roofs, gutters or flat-roof membranes (those need a roofer)
- Old mastic that tests positive for asbestos
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will say what we think.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Floor and threshold joints
- External facade joints
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Washrooms and tea points
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- Window and door perimeters
Commercial mastic work in Artington
Some sealants used before 2000 can contain asbestos, so older stock needs a check first. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before old sealant is disturbed. If a material is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. We work on floor and threshold joints, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and movement joints in walls and floors, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks and hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations. Whoever orders the work in Artington, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Quotes for commercial sealant in Artington can come from photographs and a joint schedule, or from a walk-round, and the scope is set out in writing.
In and around smaller places such as Artington, the commercial buildings we’re asked about are often pubs, shops, village halls and barns converted to offices. Kitchens, toilets and window frames in all of them need resealing sooner or later.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and the quote explains what it covers.

Surface by surface
Commercial kitchens and tea points
In kitchens, sealant lines at worktops, sinks and wall panels take heat, grease and daily cleaning. They’re degreased thoroughly before resealing.
Fire-rated seals where specified
Fire-rated sealant is only one type of fire-stopping product. Other products, such as collars, wraps and batts, are specified for different services, so we will flag it if the detail needs a different product.

What happens if it’s left?
On many buildings the mastic was done by whichever trade was on site. A specialist applicator takes care of product choice, joint depth and preparation. It shows over the following seasons rather than at handover. Converted and older buildings near places like Artington tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you will have a fixed figure to work with.

Questions we are asked in Artington
Will our hotel in Artington need to close for the work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Is Artington too far out for you?
No. Places such as Artington are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?
Let us know your requirements when you ask for a price, and we will 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.
Are you CHAS accredited and on Constructionline?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Can one contractor look after sealant on all our buildings?
Yes, within the areas we cover: South East England, Greater London and Scotland. Each site gets the same process and a single contact.

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. While we are working, the area stays contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area.

Maintenance after handover
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Ask fit-out and M&E contractors to report any sealant they disturb
- Check sealant as part of routine building inspections
- Act on the first lifting edges rather than waiting
- Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
Later works are the usual way new joints get damaged. Shop refits, new services and replaced fittings often break the seal around them. Where work has disturbed a joint, just call 01277 525 020 or email the details over for a quote.
An open joint in a food area or toilet collects dirt and moisture that cleaning can’t reach. Cleanability is something environmental health officers pay attention to, which makes sound joints worth keeping on top of.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
