Common questions from Dungate clients
Does your area include sites such as Kent Science Park, near Dungate?
Yes, sites like Kent Science Park are within our area, along with the rest of Dungate. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you match sealant colours for premises in Dungate?
Yes. Colour matching to frames, cladding, stone and shop-fit finishes is a regular part of the work. The quote lists the colours the product is made in.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and any queries are raised before we start.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
It’s backed by our 12-month guarantee. Should anything we did fail within that period, let us know.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
Commercial sealant contractors in Dungate
Commercial occupiers rarely want a floor out of action for sealant work. Work is scheduled around the site hours and access windows you give us; phasing keeps some washrooms, kitchens or entrances available while others are done. It’s the same approach in offices, retail units, hotels, schools and healthcare buildings. If you’re dealing with smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job and water staining near frames, panels or ceilings, we can put it right. Most enquiries from Dungate start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Multi-site clients with buildings in and around Dungate can put several sites on one programme, with one quote format and one point of contact.
Work in smaller places such as Dungate tends to come one building at a time: a pub kitchen, a hall, a small office. We will want a full list and photos first, so the right products come on the day and nothing waits for a second trip.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

What else we do in Dungate
Do you need commercial sealant contractors in Dungate?
A good share of the joints we inspect were topped up instead of being renewed. New silicone has nothing to key into so it soon peels and traps moisture against the joint. Getting back to a clean joint then means removing every layer.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job
- Black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off
- A top-up bead over failed sealant, now lifting
- Expansion joints with the sealant torn out
Offices and shops close to stations such as Sittingbourne station, 2.9 miles to the north of Dungate, tend to be busy all day, so sealant work is planned around opening hours.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Their public liability cover
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
When to bring in a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. 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.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving a failed joint rarely saves money. Once water gets behind the seal, finishes and ceilings underneath are next, and the bill then involves other trades. Resealing while only the sealant has failed keeps the job small. For buildings around smaller places like Dungate, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
Pricing sealant joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

After the work
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Brief cleaning contractors to avoid scourers and blades on sealant
- Keep a record of which joints were resealed and when
- Report cracked or peeling sealant early
- Put external and wet-area joints on a regular inspection round
Add the resealed joints to your planned maintenance inspections. Regular checks pick up small failures before they become leaks, with external elevations and wet areas first in line. If anything looks wrong, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a photo.
An open joint in a food area or toilet collects dirt and moisture that cleaning can’t reach. Environmental health officers look at how cleanable surfaces are.
