Construction mastic in Bredgar, done properly
The specification and the programme set the job rather than whatever product is to hand. If a product is named, that’s what goes in, and if an alternative is proposed, it goes to you for acceptance first. Joint widths, backing, primers and tooling follow the manufacturer’s guidance, so the joints perform as the designer intended. Most enquiries involve bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean and perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range, across window and door perimeters, brick and block movement joints and internal decorators’ caulk. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Bredgar, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Sites around smaller places like Bredgar can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs. Send drawings or photographs and the programme and we will quote to suit.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

Signs you need construction mastic in Bredgar
Three-sided adhesion is a frequent fault on new work. Fixed to three faces, the sealant rips the first time the joint opens, so depth is controlled with backing rod or bond-breaker tape.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Early adhesion failures on new external joints
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
- Frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed
On a healthcare site such as Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital, 2.2 miles north-east of Bredgar, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.
Before you book anyone
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
Why it’s worth doing now in Bredgar
Getting the mastic contractor involved early pays off. We can check joint widths, flag frames with gaps that won’t seal and confirm products against the specification, which avoids last-minute problems. Leave it late and they turn up on the snag list. Around Bredgar, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.

How a job runs
Working in a building that stays open takes some planning. We sign and contain the area we’re in, with routes through the building left open and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. If others near Bredgar need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
- Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
- The sequence is agreed with the site manager.

Getting the site ready

Advice
How the quote is worked out
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Which sealant the job calls for
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
The specified product makes a difference, and so does the preparation. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Sending details for a quote
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Specification clauses that apply
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.
Construction mastic in Bredgar: the local picture
Bredgar lies roughly 37 miles out from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. Rainfall across the South East, Bredgar 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 the external programme keeps a little slack.
For contractors at a school such as Bredgar Church of England Primary School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Projects at colleges like Sittingbourne College, 1.7 miles to the north-east of Bredgar, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
Bredgar is about 3 miles south-west of Sittingbourne, in Kent. If you’re looking for construction mastic in Bredgar, we can help, as we do across Kent. We work across 931 places in Kent, from busy centres to rural villages. London is covered too, some 37 miles away.

After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Protect sealed areas from following trades
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
Any damage after we’ve finished should go on the snag list straight away. We can return to clear snags before handover.
External joints sealed in poor weather are a common cause of early failure. Waiting for a dry joint and the right temperature is better than redoing work so external sequencing builds in some flexibility.
Your questions answered
Would you work within a site like Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Bredgar off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you seal external joints in wet or cold weather?
External mastic depends on conditions: the joint needs to be dry and within the product’s temperature range. External work is sequenced with some flexibility.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Can you come in just for snagging?
Yes. Snag-only work is something we take on, cutting out damaged or poor joints and resealing them.
What does a mastic package normally include?
External perimeters and movement joints, internal caulking where specified, sanitary and kitchen joints, plus snagging in one fixed quote.
Do you guarantee new-build sealant work?
Each package is signed off with a 12-month workmanship guarantee. Damage by others after we have finished isn’t covered.
