Commercial sealant contractors in Frogham, done properly
Sealant joints are easy to overlook until one lets water in, and in an occupied building failure normally announces itself as a stained ceiling or an unhappy tenant. Mastic Doctor works as a commercial sealant contractor for facilities managers, managing agents and main contractors with sites in Frogham. We find out why the sealant joints failed, take them out and seal again using a sealant that suits the joint. We work on external facade joints, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and movement joints in walls and floors, and what we are called in for most is frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall and black mould through washroom sealant that won’t clean off. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Frogham it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In an occupied building in Frogham, the job is planned so areas stay in use: washrooms in turn, floors in sections and entrances kept open.
In and around smaller places such as Frogham, 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.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Make sure contractors see the asbestos survey before cutting out old mastic
- Don’t let cleaning or traffic back on before the cure time is up
- Note dates and locations of sealant work for future planning
- Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
Add the resealed joints to your planned maintenance inspections. Regular checks pick up small failures before they become leaks. Should something look amiss, you can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and send a picture.
Each spell of wet weather pushes more water through an open joint. It can run into cavities, insulation and internal finishes long before anyone sees a stain. Catching it at the sealant stage avoids the bigger repair.
Frogham: questions and answers
Can the sealant on our Frogham premises match the finishes?
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.
Is Frogham too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What do you need from us to quote?
Send photographs, drawings or a list of locations through our quote form. If a visit is needed we will book one, and a fixed quote follows.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. CHAS accredited, Constructionline member, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
How do you choose the sealant?
If the job is specified, we follow the specification. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
On site: what to expect
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Jobs in and around smaller places like Frogham are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- We start with the evidence: photos, drawings or a look on site.
- A fixed quote follows, with removal and preparation included.
- We agree the order of work, access windows and site hours with you.
- Each joint is stripped, cleaned back to sound faces and primed where the maker specifies.
- Depth is set with backing, then the sealant is applied, tooled and the area tidied.
- Completed areas are signed off with you under our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Send your site hours and access windows
Quotes
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
Advice
When something else is needed
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Structural cracks or movement the joints weren’t designed for
- Leaks from pipework, wastes or valves (that’s plumbing)
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.
Surfaces we seal
- External facade joints
- Movement joints in walls and floors
- Window and door perimeters
- Floor and threshold joints
- Washrooms and tea points
- Kitchen worktops and splashbacks
What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It allows for:
- How much existing material needs removing
- The size and state of each joint
- Phasing around occupants
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What to include in your enquiry
We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
Let us know the site, the scope and your timescale, and we will put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

What the job involves on each surface
Window and door perimeters
The perimeter joint between a frame and the structure keeps rain out of the reveal. Failed perimeters are cut out and cleaned, backing goes into deeper gaps, and the joint is resealed with a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone or another suitable product.
Movement joints in walls and floors
Brickwork, blockwork and floor slabs all have movement joints that need a flexible seal. When the seal fails, debris gets in and the joint stops working. The joints are resealed using a sealant matched to the movement and any traffic.
What Frogham’s businesses ask us to seal
Rainfall across the South East, Frogham included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External joints still need dry faces and the right temperature, and damp or frosty mornings can hold work up. Less than 3 miles from Frogham there are at least three named estates and business parks. Sites like these see regular refits, with shopfronts, offices and staff areas to seal; brand colours often come into it.
Premises within reach of Snowdown station, 0.8 miles north-west of Frogham, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing. Industrial estates such as Aylesham Industrial Estate, 1.8 miles north-west of Frogham, have offices, trade counters and welfare areas whose sealant ages like any other building’s. A business with units at Aylesham Industrial Estate and CT3 Business Park needn’t use two contractors for its sealant.

The nearest railway station is Snowdown station, about 0.8 miles north-west of the centre. A little further out are Buckland Hospital (6 miles south-east).
General trades versus a specialist
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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
