Common questions from Boughton Malherbe clients

Is Boughton Malherbe off your patch?

No. Places such as Boughton Malherbe are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Is Roebuck Business Park, near Boughton Malherbe, within your area?

Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Boughton Malherbe, Roebuck Business Park among them, are all within reach. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.

What about RAMS and site documents?

Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.

What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?

Some older mastics, especially in pre-2000 buildings, can contain asbestos. Before we disturb old sealant in an older building, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and if asbestos is suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it.

Is colour matching possible?

Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.

Can staff carry on working while you’re here?

Typically, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.

How we handle construction mastic in Boughton Malherbe

Mastic is often where a new building first shows its quality to the client. Untidy or missed joints are among the commonest snag items. Our aim is joints that pass at the first inspection, area by area through the programme. If you are dealing with inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot and a long mastic snag list close to completion, we can help. Most enquiries from Boughton Malherbe start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.

Construction in and around smaller places such as Boughton Malherbe is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.

We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

Cost factors for mastic packages

These are the things that shape the price:

  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • The product specified
  • Whether the work must be split into stages
  • The total length or number of joints

A quote for mastic packages depends on quantities, condition and access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Details that help us quote

Diagnosis starts before we arrive. Let us know:

  • When you need the work done
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • Clear photographs of the problem areas
  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work

Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?

For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.

The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.

How a job runs

Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. Rural sites near Boughton Malherbe may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.

  1. We start with the drawings, specification and programme.
  2. Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
  3. The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
  4. Plots or floors are sealed as they’re handed over.
  5. Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
  6. Snags are cleared and the package signed off with our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Send your site hours and access windows
  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Let building users know which areas are affected

Ask for a quote

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us.

Why it’s worth doing now in Boughton Malherbe

Patching snags as they appear can feel quicker than a proper close-out. But one planned snagging pass through each area normally clears more for less disruption. Snagging can be priced as a separate stage. For buildings around smaller places like Boughton Malherbe, 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.

What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you are ready.

Why choose Mastic Doctor in Boughton Malherbe

When something else is needed

Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:

  • Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
  • Oversized gaps that need packing or adjustment by others
  • Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades

Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

  • Window and door perimeters
  • Internal decorators’ caulk
  • Cladding and panel joints
  • Floor and skirting junctions
  • Sanitary and kitchen joints
  • Brick and block movement joints

Facades, frames and programmes in Boughton Malherbe

Boughton Malherbe sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. Boughton Malherbe has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.

For contractors on a campus like Canterbury Christ Church University, 3.7 miles north of Boughton Malherbe, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates. When units on a site such as Roebuck Business Park (to the north-west of Boughton Malherbe) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. For a contractor at a hotel such as Chilston Park Hotel (0.9 miles north-east of Boughton Malherbe), the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.
