Commercial mastic work in Silver Street

On older buildings, particularly those put up before 2000, some old mastics and sealants may contain asbestos. Before anything is cut out, we ask for the asbestos register or survey, since managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility. Anything suspect is left alone until it has been tested, and we don’t remove asbestos-containing materials ourselves. We work on floor and threshold joints, kitchen worktops and splashbacks and movement joints in walls and floors, and the failures we are asked to look at most are frame mastic that has hardened and come away from the wall and messy, uneven beads from earlier work that let the building down. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Silver Street, preparation and product choice get the time they need.

If you look after more than one building near Silver Street, the work can be planned as one programme, so standards and paperwork match across every site.

In and around smaller places such as Silver Street, the commercial buildings we are 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.

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.

For managing agents and facilities managers

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Silver Street can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Kent.

FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.

On site: what to expect

We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. If others near Silver Street need work, visits can be combined. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  1. You send photos, drawings or a list of the joints and areas involved.
  2. The failure is diagnosed and a fixed quote issued for the work agreed.
  3. Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
  4. Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
  5. Backing and primer go in where needed, then the chosen sealant is applied and tooled.
  6. We walk the completed areas with you and sign them off under the 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Flag any permit to work we will need
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand

What affects the price in Silver Street

A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:

  • Joint width, depth and condition
  • Phasing around occupants
  • Any access equipment needed
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants

Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.

What we need to price the job

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • Your programme or deadline
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • Access details, including height
  • The asbestos register, for older buildings

Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

Your questions answered

Do you offer colour-matched sealant for buildings in Silver Street?

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 Kent Science Park, near Silver Street, within your area?

Yes. We cover Silver Street and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Kent Science Park. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

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.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.

How long does a job like this take?

That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit normally takes as long as the agreed scope needs, from a single visit to a programme spread over several weeks. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.

Is your work guaranteed?

Each job sits under our 12-month guarantee, starting at sign-off. Looking after the joints as we advise helps them last.

Do you hold CHAS accreditation?

Yes. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.

How the job changes by surface

Commercial kitchens and tea points

Gaps and ragged beads trap dirt that cleaning can’t reach. Work is timed around the hours you give us so the kitchen isn’t out of use longer than needed.

Shop fronts and retail fit-outs

Retail work usually has to fit around trading. We plan around the access windows the store gives us, phasing areas so the shop floor stays usable.

Leave it or put it right?

Before budgeting for new frames, cubicles or worktops, check whether it’s just the sealant. In many cases the element is fine and only the seal around it has given up. A careful reseal is a far smaller undertaking than replacement, and we’ll say so if the frame or fitting is life-expired. For buildings around smaller places like Silver Street, 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.

The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

Why us?

  • Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators
  • One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland

Keeping the joints sound

Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:

  • Ask cleaners to use a soft cloth and mild cleaner on sealant
  • Make sure contractors see the asbestos survey before cutting out old mastic
  • Ask fit-out and M&E contractors to report any sealant they disturb
  • Add sealant to the planned maintenance inspection list

We stand behind the workmanship with a 12-month guarantee. File the handover note with the building records.

Once sealant fails in a movement joint, grit and debris get in. With nothing soft to close against, the materials either side take the load and start to break up. At that point it’s a repair job rather than a reseal.

Commercial sealant contractors in Silver Street: the local picture

Silver Street lies roughly 36 miles out from central London. The commuter belt holds a great many offices, retail parks and business parks. If you have premises across the region, one contractor can cover them all. Rainfall across the South East, Silver Street included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Drier doesn’t mean dry every day, so frontage work still has some give in the dates.

If you run an office at a site such as Kent Science Park (1.4 miles east of Silver Street), the sealant at reception desks, tea points and frames ages with each fit-out. Shops and cafés around stations like Sittingbourne station, 2.8 miles to the north-east of Silver Street, trade from early, so work is timed around them.

Silver Street is about 3 miles south-west of Sittingbourne, in Kent. Silver Street sits inside our coverage, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. Across Kent, 931 places are covered, Silver Street among them. There’s a separate page for London, roughly 36 miles from Silver Street.

Work on sealant joints is covered throughout ME9. Sites close to Silver Street are covered too, including Bredgar (1 mile east), Oad Street (1 mile north-west), South Green (2 miles west), Danaway (2 miles north-west) and Chestnut Street (2 miles north). Nearby towns on our patch include Maidstone (8 miles south-west), Ashford (14 miles south-east), Sittingbourne (3 miles north-east), Whitstable (15 miles east), Faversham (8 miles east) and Minster (9 miles north-east).

Around Silver Street

Other landmarks nearby include Sittingbourne Heritage Museum (2.9 miles north-east) and Bayford Court (3.1 miles north-east). The countryside around Silver Street includes Detling Hill.
