Sealant specialists in New Romney
Most commercial buildings carry hundreds of metres of sealant that nobody thinks about until it fails, and in an occupied building failure usually 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 looking after property in New Romney. We find out why the sealant joints failed, take them out and seal again using a sealant that suits the joint. Site teams most often ask us about damp patches where an external joint has failed and gaps behind commercial kitchen worktops and sinks, across kitchen worktops and splashbacks, washrooms and tea points and movement joints in walls and floors. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in New Romney, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
A lot of what we do in New Romney is replacing sealant that has done its years: hardened, cracked or shrunk away from the faces, and letting water or dirt in.
Around smaller places such as New Romney, small firms often work from converted barns, yards and rural units. Old masonry and timber meet new glazing and partitions in these buildings, and every junction needs a sealant that suits it.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Do you need commercial sealant contractors in New Romney?
Resealing over the top is a false economy we come across often. New silicone has nothing to key into, so the top layer lifts, holds water and hides what’s going on. Getting back to a clean joint then means removing every layer.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Mouldy silicone around WCs, urinals and vanity tops
- Earlier reseals applied straight onto the failed bead
- Hardened, chalky sealant on south-facing or exposed elevations
- Water staining near frames, panels or ceilings
In hotels such as The Ship Hotel (under half a mile north of New Romney), refurbishments typically mean bathroom, bar and reception joints where a matched sealant colour has to sit with the finishes.

What happens if it’s left?
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. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Your questions answered
Does a hotel in New Romney need to shut while its sealant is renewed?
Rarely. Rooms or floors are done in turn, so the rest of the hotel keeps trading. We agree the order of rooms and the timings with you before we start.
Do you cover business parks and estates near New Romney, such as Peak Industrial Park?
Yes. Our area takes in New Romney and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Peak Industrial Park included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Do you check for asbestos before removing sealant?
It’s possible in older buildings, especially those built before 2000. We ask to see the asbestos register or survey before disturbing old sealant, and if something is suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
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. We can work to your instruction process and site rules.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Do you hold CHAS accreditation?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
The work is guaranteed for 12 months. Should a joint we sealed give trouble during those 12 months, let us know and we will look at it.
How the quote is worked out
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Joint width, depth and condition
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Access and working height
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Details that help us quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, the same details help:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The type of building and who uses it
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Access details, including height
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.
Building owners, agents and FMs in New Romney
We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Different surfaces, different methods
Washrooms and toilets
Black sealant in a toilet block is normally beyond cleaning. Replacement is the fix: strip, clean, dry and reseal.
Commercial kitchens and tea points
In kitchens, sealant lines at worktops, sinks and wall panels take heat, grease and daily cleaning. They’re degreased thoroughly before resealing, with a food-safe or hygienic product wherever food contact can happen.
Frontages, fit-outs and joints in New Romney
New Romney lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Exposed frontages near the sea are hard on sealant, so the product has to suit the weather as well as the look. Sea-facing elevations are normally where failed joints show first. The area within 2 miles of New Romney holds a number of hotels. A hotel refurbishment is full of joints that guests will see, and a matched colour keeps them discreet.
A unit on an estate like Peak Industrial Park (2.3 miles south-west of New Romney) usually has an office front, a trade counter and staff facilities with joints of their own.
New Romney is about 8 miles south-west of Hythe, in Kent. Anywhere in TN28, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Across Kent, 931 places are covered, including New Romney. We also cover Brighton, some 48 miles away.

On site: what to expect
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once.

- The failure is diagnosed and a fixed quote issued for the work agreed.
- Site hours, access windows and the order of areas are agreed before we start.
- We strip the failed bead and prepare both faces of the joint.
