Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
When to bring in a specialist
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, 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.
Commercial sealant contractors in Drellingore, done properly
We have applied sealant on commercial sites for over 20 years: CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, five million pounds of public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators. If your site needs RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, say so and we’ll confirm with the quote. Site teams most often ask us about messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down and external beads that have gone brittle and cracked, on washrooms and tea points, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and movement joints in walls and floors. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Drellingore? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
A lot of what we do in Drellingore is replacing sealant that has done its years: hardened, cracked or shrunk away from the faces, and letting water or dirt in.
Rural business units near smaller places such as Drellingore are frequently converted agricultural buildings. Their mix of old walls with new frames, partitions and floors means many joints between unlike materials.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

Advice
Questions about Drellingore
Our building in Drellingore is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Is Drellingore too small for you to travel to?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you supply RAMS and insurance details?
We will confirm the paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with five million pounds of public liability insurance.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Will the building have to shut during the work?
That comes down to planning: we agree access windows, phase the work and keep enough facilities open. Tell us what has to stay open and we will plan the job around it.
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.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Our applicators hold CSCS cards.
When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
- Removing asbestos-containing materials (a licensed or specialist contractor’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Window and door perimeters
- Floor and threshold joints
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- External facade joints
- Washrooms and tea points
Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Act on the first lifting edges rather than waiting
- Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
- Ask fit-out and M&E contractors to report any sealant they disturb
- Keep washroom and kitchen extraction working
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. File the handover note with the building records so it’s easy to find if a joint we sealed gives trouble inside the 12 months.
Sealant installed at the same time normally fails in sequence. A few splits this year normally mean more next year so the whole run is worth inspecting. We can assess the lot and suggest what to do now and later.
Owners, agents and contractors
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
What affects the price in Drellingore
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
Sending details for a quote
We can often quote from photographs and a few details. Please tell us:
- Specification clauses that apply
- The postcode of the building
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- When you need the work done
A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to discuss it first.
Working on commercial sites near Drellingore
With the shore within about 2 miles, Drellingore counts as a coastal location. Exposed frontages near the sea are hard on sealant, so the product has to suit the weather as well as the look. Where a frontage needs a particular colour, the product still has to suit that exposure. Less than 3 miles from Drellingore there are at least three named estates and business parks. Units on sites like these change tenants and get refitted, and each refit leaves joints to seal.
If you look after units at a retail site such as West Park Farm North Retail Park, which lies south-west of Drellingore, shopfront perimeters and shop-fit joints are where a matched colour shows. If you have premises on more than one site, say at West Park Farm North Retail Park and Highfield Industrial Estate, one contractor and one quote can cover both. Offices and shops close to stations such as Folkestone Central station, 3.1 miles south-west of Drellingore, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours.
