About our construction mastic in Eddington
We work to the specification and the programme, not to habit. Where the specification names a product, we use it. Backing, primer and depth follow what the sealant maker sets out so the detail on the drawing is what ends up on site. We work on cladding and panel joints, sanitary and kitchen joints and window and door perimeters, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are external joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing and existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Eddington? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Conversions around smaller places like Eddington often join new frames to old masonry or timber, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.
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.

Maintenance after handover
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Record the products used in the O&M file
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
Record which products went where in the handover file. Future maintenance is easier when the products are known, and tells you what to reseal with. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
A missed perimeter seal on one window can wet the reveal and the plaster inside. On a new building that means remedial work after decorating, and a delay to handover. Checking perimeters before internal finishes go on avoids it.
Facades, frames and programmes in Eddington
Eddington lies within about 2 miles of the sea. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
New units and refits on sites such as Eddington Business Park, under half a mile north of Eddington, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Projects at schools like Herne Bay High School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.
Eddington is about 1 mile south-west of Herne Bay, in Kent. Eddington sits inside our coverage and the rest of Kent, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Eddington is one of 931 places we cover in Kent. London is covered too, some 53 miles away.

Our process
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes whatever the programme allows, since the work follows the trades as areas are released. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Eddington need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.
- First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
- You receive a fixed quote covering scope, products and sequence.
- Paperwork is agreed and applicators are inducted on site.
- Sealing follows the programme as areas are released.
- Any frame gaps or issues outside our scope are flagged to the site team.
- Final snagging is completed and the 12-month guarantee applies.
Before we start on site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Let us know about inductions and permits
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. To take the first step, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Advice
When it isn’t the sealant
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Cladding and panel joints
- Brick and block movement joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Internal decorators’ caulk
Common questions from Eddington clients
Would you work within a site like Queen Victoria Memorial Hospital?
Yes. We work in healthcare settings as well as offices and schools. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Eddington, such as Eddington Business Park?
Yes. We cover Eddington and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Eddington Business Park. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
How soon can the area be used again?
Curing time varies by product, and we confirm it on the day, and sign any area that should be left alone.
Do you take on mastic snagging only?
Yes, we can. Share the list and photographs, and a fixed quote follows, with the work timed to your handover date.
Will you quote for a small job?
Small jobs are welcome alongside larger packages. Send details for a fixed quote.
Can staff carry on working while you’re here?
In most cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use, with each area protected and signed.
Will you stick to the specified products?
The specified product is what goes in. If we think an alternative would suit better, we put it to you first.
How the quote is worked out
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- The total length or number of joints
- The size and state of each joint
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
What we need to price the job
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The postcode of the building
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Any dates the work must fit around
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints are often enough for a fixed quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.

Leave it or put it right?
Leaving mastic to whichever trade is fitting the element can look cheaper on paper. The result tends to be uneven finishes and arguments about who should seal what. A single mastic package gives one point of responsibility. For buildings in places like Eddington, one well-planned visit beats several small ones, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What you get with us
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months
- One number for every site we cover
- Colour agreed before work starts

Do you need construction mastic in Eddington?
A new building moves while it dries and settles. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed
- A long mastic snag list close to completion
- New external sealant already peeling away
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
Extensions at sites like Queen Victoria Memorial Hospital, 1.1 miles north-east of Eddington, normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules.
Before you book anyone
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Proof of insurance
