Surface by surface
Kitchens and utility areas
Commercial kitchens often need hygienic or food-safe sealants. Joints are sealed smooth so they’re easy to clean.
External facade and movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel movement joints need a sealant with the right movement capability. We set the depth with backing rod to avoid three-sided adhesion.
How we handle construction mastic in Dunk's Green
A typical mastic package covers more than window perimeters: frame perimeters inside and out, caulking to trims and boards where the specification calls for it, sanitary silicone, kitchens, and the final snag list. One contractor for all of it keeps the responsibility in one place, and one applicator team gives a consistent finish. Most enquiries involve failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished and frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed, across internal decorators’ caulk, floor and skirting junctions and window and door perimeters. For commercial sealant work in Dunk's Green, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around smaller places like Dunk's Green, building work typically means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Aftercare for building managers
For the best life from the joints:
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
- Record the products used in the O&M file
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
At handover, keep the product details with the O&M information. That helps the building owner maintain the joints later and avoids guesswork when joints are renewed. We can confirm the handover information you need when we quote.
Leaving the mastic snag list to the end squeezes everyone. A planned close-out through each area as it completes keeps the list short, and avoids a rush.

Commercial clients in Dunk's Green
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first, with CSCS-carded applicators on site.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Dunk's Green can form part of a wider programme across Kent.
Doing it in-house
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. 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, which is what makes a joint last.
When to call us in Dunk's Green
On a live site, contamination is the biggest threat to a new joint. Plaster dust, release agents, protective film residue and damp all stop sealant bonding so faces get cleaned, and primer goes on wherever the maker specifies, even on new work.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
- Caulk cracking where joints are moving more than expected
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant alone
University estates such as University of Kent - Tonbridge, 4.4 miles south of Dunk's Green, tend to have a rolling programme of new buildings and refurbishments, each with window perimeters and facade joints to seal.
What your quote should include
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- How they’ll work around occupants
Contractors’ notes for Dunk's Green
Dunk's Green is about 24 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Rainfall across the South East, Dunk's Green included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
When a school such as Plaxtol Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. Projects at colleges like Hadlow College, 2.1 miles to the south-east of Dunk's Green, tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly.
