Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Farleigh Green
Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old, and on older buildings we ask for the asbestos survey before disturbing anything. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. The enquiries we see most involve sanitary sealant damaged by following trades and different trades sealing to different standards, on window and door perimeters, sanitary and kitchen joints and brick and block movement joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Farleigh Green from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Around smaller places like Farleigh Green, building work usually 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.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. Should something we installed fail, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will come back to it.

General trades versus a specialist
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
Common questions from Farleigh Green clients
Can work at a site such as University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone fit around teaching?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is Farleigh Green too far out for you?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
How many days will you need on site?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes a day or two on a small fit-out and several weeks on a large multi-storey package. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
What joints do you seal on a new build?
Inside and out: frame perimeters, movement joints, caulk where called for, sanitary and kitchens, all priced as one package.
What’s the quickest route to a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Do you use the sealant named in the specification?
We use the product the specification names. Any suggested alternative is put to you before anything changes.
What hours do you work?
The office is staffed Monday to Friday, from 8am until 5pm. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.

If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Signs you need construction mastic in Farleigh Green
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.
Most enquiries start with something like this:
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Missed perimeter joints on a new elevation
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant alone
Further education sites such as MidKent College Maidstone Campus (1.9 miles north-east of Farleigh Green) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break.
Questions to ask before you book

Why deal with it now?
When a package runs over budget, downgrading the product is a common first thought. A failed joint in the defects period costs far more than the product difference and external joints are where it shows first. Where an alternative is genuinely suitable, we will say so. Halls, stores and units around places like Farleigh Green may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
