Commercial sealant contractors for commercial buildings in Ducklington
Mastic Doctor has been sealing joints for businesses and contractors since 2005: we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. Let us know which site documents you need and they’ll be confirmed with the quote. If you have black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off and shrunken sealant along kitchen worktops and splashbacks, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Most enquiries from Ducklington start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
If you look after more than one building near Ducklington, the work can be planned as one programme, with one quote format and one point of contact.
Work in smaller places such as Ducklington tends to come one building at a time: a pub kitchen, a hall, a small office. We plan the visit so everything on the list is done in one go, with the right products and colours on hand.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will come back to it.

Common problems we fix in Ducklington
No sealant joint is permanent. How long one lasts depends on the movement it takes, its exposure to sun and weather, the cleaning regime, the traffic and the product itself. In commercial buildings those factors tend to act together, so periodic inspection matters more than any date on a schedule.
Site and facilities staff are often the first to spot these:
- Damp patches where an external joint has failed
- A top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting
- Messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down
- Greasy, split joints in a kitchen or tea point
Trade counters and showrooms on estates such as Parkside Industrial Estate, 0.7 miles to the north of Ducklington, need neat joints where customers see them.
What to look for in a quote
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How joint depth will be controlled
Aftercare for building managers
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Act on the first lifting edges rather than waiting
- Keep barriers up until the new sealant has cured
- Check sealant as part of routine building inspections
- Make sure ventilation in wet areas is switched on and working
In washrooms and kitchens, extraction makes a real difference to sealant life. Extraction that isn’t working keeps the joints wet. Your maintenance team can look at extract fans at the same time.
Occupiers often notice failing sealant before the facilities team does, and in a hotel, office or shop it makes the whole space look neglected. Replacing it on a planned cycle keeps complaints down.
From enquiry to sign-off
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. Jobs in and around smaller places like Ducklington are usually planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- You send photos, drawings or a list of the joints and areas involved.
- We work out why the joints have failed and fix a quote for the agreed scope.
- Site hours, access windows and the order of areas are agreed before we start.
- Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
- We fit backing to the right depth, prime where specified and lay the new bead.
- We walk the completed areas with you and sign them off under the 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Arrange parking or a loading space

Advice
Questions we are asked in Ducklington
Is Ducklington too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you take on work at estates like Parkside Industrial Estate, close to Ducklington?
Yes, sites like Parkside Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Ducklington. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can one contractor look after sealant on all our buildings?
Yes. Give us the sites and the scope at each, and we’ll put together a fixed quote and a sensible order of work.
Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?
Some older mastics did contain asbestos. So we check the register first and stop work on anything suspect until it’s tested.
How do you keep disruption to occupiers down?
It’s normal for us to work in occupied buildings. We agree the order of areas, protect what’s nearby and close off only the section we’re sealing for as long as the cure needs.
How is commercial sealant work priced?
Price depends on joint lengths and widths, how much removal is involved, the product, access and phasing. For a fixed quote, send details through our quote form.
Do you work for facilities managers and managing agents?
Yes. A large share of our work comes through facilities managers, managing agents and landlords, alongside main contractors. Tell us how you issue work and we will fit in.
Why deal with it now?
Some managers wait for a fit-out before touching the mastic. For internal joints that are only cosmetic, that can make sense, but external and wet-area joints that already leak shouldn’t wait. Splitting the scope into now and later is often the sensible compromise. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Ducklington, rather than one at a time. Send photographs of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

How the quote is worked out

- Phasing around occupants
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
The work involved drives the cost: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.
What to include in your enquiry
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Specification clauses that apply
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Your programme or deadline
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
