How we handle construction mastic in Gateside
Mastic tends to be one of the final packages before handover. Mastic Doctor takes on mastic packages for main contractors and developers with projects in Gateside. We work on floor and skirting junctions, cladding and panel joints and brick and block movement joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work and cracks opening in caulked internal joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Gateside? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
External sealing around Gateside depends on dry faces and the right temperature. A little flexibility in the programme lets external joints go in on suitable days.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- The product specified
- How accessible the joints are
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
What to include in your enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- Specification clauses that apply
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email the details over.

Advice
What the job involves on each surface
Kitchens and utility areas
Worktop upstands, sinks and splashbacks are sealed once the kitchen is fitted. A kitchen-suitable sealant is used.
Snagging before handover
Damaged, missed or untidy joints make up most snag lists. We price snagging as part of the package or as a separate visit, depending on what suits the programme.
Building owners, agents and FMs in Gateside
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
We work for building owners and managing agents on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios. Several sites can go on one quote, which keeps the paperwork simple.
When to call us in Gateside
Shrinkage and settlement in the first months put new joints under strain. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink, which opens up internal joints, particularly where caulk has been used in a joint that moves. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- External joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing
- Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
For contractors building in or near Gateside, we seal to the drawings, the specification and the programme.

Leave it or put it right?
Patching snags as they appear can feel quicker than a proper close-out. A planned sweep of each plot or floor catches the lot in one go and saves applicators coming back again and again. Snagging can be priced as a separate stage. For buildings near Gateside, dealing with all the failing joints at once saves return trips. Photos of each area help us quote the whole job.
Pricing mastic packages depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
