Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
Cost factors for mastic packages
Before we quote, we look at:
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- How much there is to seal
- How accessible the joints are
- The product specified
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Before you send an enquiry
We can often quote from photos and a few details. It helps to include:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Your programme or deadline
Photos, drawings or a schedule of the joints and a fixed quote comes back to you. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a site visit.
About our construction mastic in Hollingbourne
The programme rarely stands still, so the mastic package has to flex with it. We agree a sequence at the start and adjust it as the site manager releases areas and we don’t seal before other trades have finished in an area. That keeps the work right first time and saves rework. The enquiries we see most involve early adhesion failures on new external joints and sealant knocked or painted over by other trades, across brick and block movement joints, floor and skirting junctions and window and door perimeters. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Hollingbourne? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
In the countryside around places like Hollingbourne, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

Surface by surface
Kitchens and utility areas
Commercial kitchens often need hygienic or food-safe sealants. Joints are sealed smooth so they’re easy to clean.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Fire-rated sealant forms part of some packages, installed to the product’s tested detail where it is specified. The design and sign-off of fire stopping sit with the designer, principal designer or fire engineer.
Why act early in Hollingbourne
On a refurbishment, there’s a choice between resealing existing frames and replacing them. If the frame is in good order, cutting out and resealing the perimeter can be all it needs. If the frame is life-expired, we’ll tell you. Converted and older buildings near places like Hollingbourne tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
Why appoint us
- Old sealant cut out, never sealed over
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- CHAS accredited contractor

Building and refurbishing in Hollingbourne
Rainfall across the South East, Hollingbourne included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so the external programme keeps a little slack. Central London is about 36 miles from Hollingbourne. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.
Extensions at sites like KIMS hospital, 3.9 miles to the west of Hollingbourne, normally sit beside working departments, and the mastic follows strict access rules. With historic properties like Leeds Castle (1.3 miles south-west of Hollingbourne) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants. When units on a site such as Roebuck Business Park, 2.2 miles south-east of Hollingbourne, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
Hollingbourne is about 5 miles east of Maidstone, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Hollingbourne. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, from busy centres to rural villages. Our London page has more on work in that area, about 36 miles away.

The scope comes from the specification and drawings, but frames, sanitary, kitchens, caulk where specified and snagging are typical.

When something else is needed
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. These need a different solution:
- Oversized gaps that need packing or adjustment by others
- Deciding which fire-stopping product a penetration needs
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Maintenance after handover
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
- Protect sealed areas from following trades
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Blades and abrasive pads are the commonest cause of damage at the final clean so keep them off the joints.
Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. Clearing snags area by area spreads the work out, and avoids a rush.
How a job runs
Inspect, seal, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. We inspect the joints and confirm what’s in scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off.
