When something else is needed

- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer.

Construction mastic in Hampton, done properly
Getting a subcontractor through site induction should be simple. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and we’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. Most enquiries involve existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing and snag items on joints that need redoing before handover, across floor and skirting junctions, brick and block movement joints and cladding and panel joints. Whoever orders the work in Hampton, the brief is typically the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
In a smaller place such as Hampton, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Small schemes still need window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant done to the specification.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Work for main contractors and building owners
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, you need clear quotes and clear reporting. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Why it’s worth doing now in Hampton
Sealing over damaged or contaminated new joints might save a day, but it rarely lasts. Sealant can’t grip a contaminated or existing bead and the defect reappears in the defects period. We cut out and redo the joint properly. Sealant hardens, cracks and loses grip with age, UV and movement. Renewing it in good time keeps the building weathertight.
The specified product makes a difference, as does the preparation each joint needs. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.
Why choose Mastic Doctor in Hampton

Read our cost guide and how we’re accredited.
How the quote is worked out
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- How much existing material needs removing
- The size and state of each joint
- Working within restricted access windows
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.
Details that help us quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Access details, including height
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Your questions answered
Is Hampton too far out for you?
No. Places such as Hampton are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Queen Victoria Memorial Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Can weather delay the job?
Outside, yes. Sealant needs a dry joint and a temperature within the product’s range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
Can you fit around our programme?
We follow the trades through the building. Areas are sealed as they’re released by the site team.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Sealing over old material is one of the classic causes of early joint failure, so everything comes out first.
Keeping the joints sound
For the best life from the joints:
- Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
- Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
- Flag uneven or tapered frame gaps early
- Record the products used in the O&M file
Tell the builders’ clean team which areas have new sealant. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead.
Oversized gaps are a problem better caught early. Filling a wide gap with sealant alone sets up a failure, so the installer needs to correct it first. We raise them during our first walk of the area.
Sites and facades in and around Hampton
Hampton lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Hampton is about 52 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
New units and refits on sites such as St. Augustine's Business Park, 1.1 miles south-west of Hampton, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Queen Victoria Memorial Hospital (2 miles east of Hampton), perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries. Projects at schools like Hampton Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.
Hampton is about 2 miles west of Herne Bay, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Hampton, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places. We also cover London, some 52 miles away.

If your building is just outside Hampton, we cover Swalecliffe (2 miles south-west), West End (2 miles south), Chestfield (2 miles south-west), Tankerton (2 miles west) and Radfall (3 miles south-west). Nearby towns on our patch include Canterbury (6 miles south), Margate (12 miles east), Ramsgate (14 miles east), Broadstairs (14 miles east), Faversham (10 miles south-west) and Minster (13 miles west).
