About our construction mastic in Hempton
Mastic Doctor has been a subcontractor on construction projects for over 20 years. We price from drawings and the specification, agree the sequence with the site team and seal as areas are released. To price a package in Hempton, send drawings and the specification through our quote form. We work on brick and block movement joints, internal decorators’ caulk and sanitary and kitchen joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work and oversized or tapered gaps around new frames. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Hempton it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Hempton bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is normally what’s needed.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

How the job changes by surface
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, and any bath is loaded with water first where that’s the agreed method.
Kitchens and utility areas
Commercial kitchens often need hygienic or food-safe sealants. Joints are sealed smooth so they’re easy to clean.
What we are called out for in Hempton
Shrinkage and settlement in the first months put new joints under strain. Materials lose construction moisture and shrink. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
- External joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
On a healthcare site such as Horton General Hospital (4.9 miles north of Hempton), new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.
What your quote should include
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
- How they’ll work around occupants
Your questions answered
Is Hempton off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Hempton, such as Station Yard Industrial Estate?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Hempton, Station Yard Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, as every site differs. Send photos or drawings and we will price it at a fixed figure.
Do you use the sealant named in the specification?
The specification decides the product and flag anything that doesn’t look right for the joint. Specifications often reference BS EN 15651 or BS 6213.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so it all comes out first.
Are you insured?
Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.
Can you seal external joints in wet or cold weather?
Weather matters for external sealing: the joint needs to be dry and within the product’s temperature range. External work is sequenced with some flexibility.
What sealant work can’t fix
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
If you are not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Brick and block movement joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding and panel joints
Owners, agents and contractors
For main contractors, we work as the sealant subcontractor. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
From enquiry to sign-off
Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, with routes through the building left open and move on in phases so staff and visitors can carry on around us. If others near Hempton need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- We return a fixed quote that ties the mastic package to your programme.
- You tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we confirm it with the quote.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Joints are cleaned, primed where the maker requires it, backed and sealed to the specification.
- Snags are cleared before handover and completed areas carry our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
Getting a fixed quote
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, call 01277 525 020 or email us.

When to bring in a specialist
There’s also the paperwork. 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.
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
New build and refits around Hempton
Rainfall across the South East, Hempton included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. At about 63 miles from central London, Hempton is within reach of the capital. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
New units and refits on sites such as Station Yard Industrial Estate (to the north-east of Hempton) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as The Holcombe Hotel, 1.3 miles east of Hempton, typically run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows.
