About our construction mastic in Benover
Getting a subcontractor through site induction should be simple. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with public liability insurance in place. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. Site teams most often ask us about different trades sealing to different standards and perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range, across brick and block movement joints, floor and skirting junctions and sanitary and kitchen joints. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Benover tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
For a site near Benover, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photographs and the programme and we will quote to suit.
Work we carry out in Kent comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll come back to it.

What affects the price in Benover
These are the things that shape the price:
- Phasing around occupants
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- The size and state of each joint
- How much existing material needs removing
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.
Details that help us quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Useful things to include:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Your programme or deadline
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
General trades versus a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.
When it isn’t the sealant
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
- Joint design decisions that belong to the architect or engineer
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Owners, agents and contractors
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
How the job changes by surface
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulk is easy to apply badly. A neat, consistent caulk line makes the decorators’ job quicker and reduces snags.
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
Across a block of flats or a hotel, sanitary sealing is repeated in every room. A single team keeps the standard consistent following the programme.
New build and refits around Benover
Benover lies roughly 30 miles out from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Rainfall across the South East, Benover included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
Projects at schools like Hunton Church of England Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. Extensions at sites like Oakwood Hospital (4.4 miles north-east of Benover) typically sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. When units on a site such as Woodfalls Industrial Estate (0.8 miles west of Benover) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
Benover is about 5 miles south-west of Maidstone, in Kent. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Benover use us for work on mastic packages, as part of our coverage of Kent. Benover is one of 931 places we cover in Kent. Our London page has more on work in that area, about 30 miles away.

Questions about Benover
Is a hospital such as Oakwood Hospital somewhere you can work?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone?
Yes. Tell us the term dates, vacation periods and access windows, and we will plan the work around them. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
What joints do you seal on a new build?
Inside and out: frame perimeters, movement joints, caulk where called for, sanitary and kitchens, all priced as one package.
Can you quote from photos?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. Otherwise, we recommend a product to suit the joint’s movement, the substrate and the conditions, following the manufacturer’s guidance.
What do you charge?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Let us know which documents the site needs, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
On site: what to expect
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for.
