About our commercial sealant contractors in Hollingdean
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 are dealing with weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes and water staining near frames, panels or ceilings, we can put it right. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Hollingdean tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Occupied buildings in Hollingdean need the work phased: washrooms in turn, floors in sections and entrances kept open.
In a smaller place such as Hollingdean, commercial buildings are usually a mix of shops, a pub or café, a school, a surgery and perhaps a few business units. They’re not big jobs one by one, but their joints need the same preparation as anywhere.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. For a site in Hollingdean, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.
- Send details through our quote form, or ask for a site visit.
- We diagnose the cause of failure and price a fixed scope.
- Where parts of the building must stay open, the work is phased.
- Every failed bead is removed rather than covered.
- Each joint gets a suitable sealant, laid to depth and tooled.
- We check the work with you, and the 12-month guarantee starts.
Before we start on site
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
Getting a fixed quote
The quickest route to a quote is a few photographs and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to discuss it first.
Advice
Signs you need commercial sealant contractors in Hollingdean
When a bead peels cleanly off one face, it has failed in adhesion. The usual causes are poor preparation, a missed primer, contamination on the joint face or sealant bonded to the base of the joint. It’s one of the commonest faults we find on earlier work.
Clients normally get in touch after noticing one or more of the following:
- External beads that have gone brittle and cracked
- Smeared sealant across finishes from a rushed job
- Leaks that seem to come through a sealant line
- Expansion joints with the sealant torn out
Sites a few miles apart, such as Pavilion Retail Park and Centenary Industrial Estate, can share one programme and one point of contact.
Questions to ask before you book
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS

Why deal with it now?
Some low prices are low because nothing gets cut out. Sealing over looks tidy at handover, then lifts once the joint starts moving. Our prices always include removal of the failed bead and full joint preparation, which is where the lasting value is. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.
Why appoint us
- A fixed quote before work starts
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
- Constructionline member

Commercial premises in Hollingdean
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Hollingdean. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Sea-facing elevations are usually where failed joints show first. Hollingdean has nine care or nursing homes no more than 2 miles away. Kitchens and communal rooms in care settings are cleaned constantly, so their joints need to be smooth and sound.
Shops and cafés around stations like Moulsecoomb station, 0.5 miles to the east of Hollingdean, trade from early, so work is timed around them. For a retailer at a site such as Pavilion Retail Park, which lies south-east of Hollingdean, the joints customers see are as much part of the fit-out as the shelving.

Your questions answered
Is Hollingdean too small for you to travel to?
No. Places such as Hollingdean are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Will our hotel in Hollingdean need to close for the work?
Rarely, if ever. We take a few rooms out at a time. The plan is built around your bookings.
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
When can the area be used after sealing?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship on each job is backed by a 12-month guarantee. Public liability insurance is in place too.
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Structural cracks or movement the joints weren’t designed for
- Water from a services leak rather than a joint
- Faulty windows rather than failed perimeter sealant
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.

Work for main contractors and building owners
As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.

Surface by 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.
Commercial kitchens and tea points
Kitchen joints along worktops, sinks, splashbacks and wall cladding collect grease and moisture. Proper degreasing comes before any new sealant, with a food-safe or hygienic product wherever food contact can happen.
