Construction mastic in Broadstairs
A typical mastic package covers more than window perimeters: external door and window perimeters, internal decorators’ caulk where specified, sanitary joints in bathrooms and washrooms, kitchen worktops and splashbacks, and snagging before handover. One contractor for all of it keeps the responsibility in one place, and one applicator team gives a consistent finish. Site teams most often ask us about different trades sealing to different standards and frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed, on cladding and panel joints, internal decorators’ caulk and brick and block movement joints.

Construction in a town such as Broadstairs is often smaller schemes: a few new flats, a school extension, a refurbished unit. The perimeter and facade joints on a small scheme need the same sizing and preparation as on a big one.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Why act early in Broadstairs
Getting the mastic contractor involved early pays off. Early involvement means gaps, products and access are sorted before the programme bites, which avoids last-minute problems. Called in at the end, the same issues surface during handover. A failed joint is easier to put right before damp shows inside. After a leak, there’s drying, repairs and redecoration on top.
A quote for mastic packages depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.

For managing agents and facilities managers
If you look after buildings for someone else, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
Mastic packages on Broadstairs sites
Broadstairs sits close to the coast, within about 1 mile. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. At about 66 miles from central London, Broadstairs is within reach of the capital. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Further education sites such as EKC Broadstairs College (0.6 miles south-east of Broadstairs) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break. For contractors refurbishing units at places like Northdown Industrial Estate (0.6 miles north-west of Broadstairs), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. Hospital estates such as Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother Hospital, 2 miles north-west of Broadstairs, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan.
Broadstairs is about 16 miles east of Canterbury, in Kent. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Broadstairs can call on us for mastic packages. 931 places across Kent fall within our area, including Broadstairs. We also cover London, around 66 miles from Broadstairs.

Questions about Broadstairs
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like EKC Broadstairs College?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Does a coastal location like Broadstairs affect which sealant is used?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?
Managing asbestos is the dutyholder’s responsibility, so for older buildings we ask for the asbestos register first. Work pauses if suspect material is found, until it has been tested.
Do you cover Broadstairs?
Yes. Broadstairs falls within our area, and you can ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email to get started.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, though a typical visit normally takes anything from a day of snagging to several weeks of plot-by-plot sealing on a phased scheme. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
On site: what to expect
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes anything from a day of snagging to several weeks of plot-by-plot sealing on a phased scheme. Parking and loading for town-centre jobs in Broadstairs are worth mentioning when you send details. On estates and business parks it’s typically simpler.
- We start with the drawings, specification and programme.
- Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
- The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
- Each area is sealed when it’s released.
- Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
- After snagging, the work is handed over under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
Request a quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

How the job changes by surface
Window and door perimeters
Frames sealed into the opening keep rain out of the reveal. We use the specified perimeter sealant, normally a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, with backing rod in deeper gaps.
Snagging before handover
Damaged, missed or untidy joints make up most snag lists. Snagging can be included or priced separately, depending on what suits the programme.
What sets the cost
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- The size and state of each joint
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Distance, for remote addresses
- How accessible the joints are
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Before you send an enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
- The site address and postcode
To get a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.
Keeping the joints sound
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Keep product details for future maintenance
- Ask for joint and product checks before the package is urgent
- Ask installers to correct oversized gaps first
Record which products went where in the handover file. That helps the building owner maintain the joints later. We can confirm the handover information you need when we quote.
In wet areas, a weak sanitary joint shows up quickly once the building is occupied. Leaks behind showers and basins damage finishes and floors, and the repair falls into the defects period. Getting the product and preparation right first time avoids that.
