Construction mastic for Allington sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Allington
Mastic follows everyone else, which means it absorbs every delay upstream. We agree a sequence at the start and adjust it as the site manager releases areas, so applicators arrive when areas are genuinely ready. Sealing too early only means coming back once others have damaged it. If you’re dealing with sanitary sealant damaged by following trades and frame gaps too wide for sealant alone, we can put it right, on brick and block movement joints, cladding and panel joints and sanitary and kitchen joints alike. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Allington tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Conversions around smaller places like Allington often join new frames to old masonry or timber, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Owners, agents and contractors
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around Allington. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.

Questions we’re asked in Allington
Is Allington 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. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University for the Creative Arts?
Yes. Education sites typically want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership. We confirm any paperwork you need with the quote.
Can you work to our specification?
Specification first, then the maker’s instructions. Preparation, backing and depth follow the product guidance.
How do I request a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, receive a fixed quote, we carry out the work, and it’s guaranteed. Step one needs little more than photographs and a postcode.
How much does the work cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a quote and we will price it properly.
Doing it in-house
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
If a joint is damaged after sealing, flag it early. Snags can be picked up in a planned close-out visit, priced as part of the package or separately.
External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Holding off until conditions suit avoids callbacks so external sequencing builds in some flexibility.
New build and refits around Allington
A good number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Allington. When hotels extend or refit, the work is usually squeezed between peak periods, mastic included. Allington is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
For contractors on a campus like University for the Creative Arts, 1 mile south of Allington, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates. Further education sites such as MidKent College Maidstone Campus, 1.2 miles south of Allington, are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break. Work at a hotel such as Grange Moor Hotel (to the south of Allington) tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included.
Allington is about 2 miles north-west of Maidstone, in Kent. If you’re looking for construction mastic in Allington, we can help, as we do across Kent. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, large and small. London is covered too, some 29 miles away.
If you need construction mastic in ME16, ME20 and ME14, the process matches everywhere else we work: details, then a fixed price, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Buildings on Wyatt Road, Beaver Road and Godwin Road are within our area. Just outside Allington, we also work in Aylesford (1 mile north-west), Fant (1 mile south), Ditton (2 miles west), East Farleigh (2 miles south) and Kettle Corner (2 miles south-west). A short drive away, we cover Sittingbourne (11 miles east), Sevenoaks (13 miles west), Royal Tunbridge Wells (14 miles south-west), Gravesend (11 miles north-west), Tonbridge (11 miles south-west) and Northfleet (12 miles north-west).
Around Allington
We work on buildings around St. Simon Stock Catholic School, Whatman Park and Malta Inn, among other places. The nearest railway station is Barming station, roughly 0.8 miles west of the centre. Other landmarks nearby include Queen's Own Royal West Kent Regiment Museum (1.3 miles south-east) and Fremlin Walk (1.3 miles south-east). Green spaces nearby include Burham Down and Boxley Hills.
When something else is needed
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we’ve sealed
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Window and door perimeters

How the quote is worked out
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- The size and state of each joint
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- The site’s rules and procedures
- How much existing material needs removing
A quote for mastic packages depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Any dates the work must fit around
- The postcode of the building
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
Send us photos, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we’ll arrange a site visit.
