Why deal with it now?
A quick bead over a damaged joint can get an area past inspection. Sealant can’t grip a contaminated or existing bead. We cut out and redo the joint properly. Small buildings around Hastings Old Town suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.

Surface by surface
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.
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
In bathrooms and washrooms, an anti-mould sanitary silicone goes around every fitting. Joints are cleaned, sealed and tooled neatly.
Your questions answered
Does the sea air around Hastings Old Town change the choice of sealant?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Conquest Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
How much does the work cost?
There isn’t a price list, because every site is different. With photographs or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Is the mastic package guaranteed?
Each package is signed off with a 12-month workmanship guarantee. The guarantee covers our work, not later damage by other trades.
What joints do you seal on a new build?
External perimeters and movement joints, internal caulking where specified, sanitary and kitchen joints, plus snagging.
Can you handle several sites?
Yes. Several buildings can share a single quote, with one point of contact.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.

General trades versus a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Whether the work must be split into stages
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The product your specification calls for
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
Need a figure for a tender or a budget? Send the scope and any drawings, and we will return a fixed quote you can plan around. If you have questions first, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

Contractors’ notes for Hastings Old Town
With the shore within about 1 mile, Hastings Old Town counts as a coastal location. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. There are plenty of hotels within about 2 miles of Hastings Old Town. Hotel extensions and refits normally have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Ivyhouse Industrial Estate, 1.5 miles to the north of Hastings Old Town, the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Chatsworth Hotel, 0.7 miles west of Hastings Old Town, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. For contractors at a school such as Ark Castledown Primary Academy, sealing has to be finished before term starts.
