Construction mastic for Iwade sites
Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
What we seal
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding and panel joints
- Brick and block movement joints
Construction mastic in Iwade, done properly
On a new build, the mastic package is one of the last trades through each area, so it lands at exactly the point the programme is tightest. Mastic Doctor takes on mastic packages for main contractors and developers with projects in Iwade. We work on floor and skirting junctions, internal decorators’ caulk and sanitary and kitchen joints, and what we are called in for most is failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished and missed perimeter joints on a new elevation. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Iwade it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
On a small site around Iwade, the mastic is best done in the fewest visits we can manage. Let us know the key stages and we will time the work so nothing waits on us.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

How the job changes by surface
Snagging before handover
Snagging is often the final mastic stage. We can work through the snag list area by area.
Window and door perimeters
Perimeter joints between frames and the structure are the weather line on any new building. We use the specified perimeter sealant, typically a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone and set the depth with backing where needed.
Questions about Iwade
Is Iwade off your patch?
No. Places such as Iwade are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Can you work on a hospital site such as Sittingbourne Memorial 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 long do sealant joints last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
Can you seal external joints in wet or cold weather?
External sealing goes ahead only with a dry joint inside the product’s temperature range. Sealing in poor conditions risks adhesion failure, so we wait rather than redo work.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Are you CHAS accredited?
We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. We’re also fully insured, with five million pounds of public liability cover.
Work for main contractors and building owners
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites around Iwade. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
General trades versus a specialist
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, 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.
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.
Building and refurbishing in Iwade
Iwade lies within about 1 mile of the sea. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Iwade sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
New wings at hospitals like Sittingbourne Memorial Hospital, 2.8 miles to the south of Iwade, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. When units on a site such as Newington Enterprise Centre, 2.7 miles to the south-west of Iwade, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. For contractors at a school such as Iwade School, sealing has to be finished before term starts.

What else we do in Iwade
Leave it or put it right?
Some packages split mastic across the window fitter, kitchen fitter and plumber. In practice it often means different standards, gaps in responsibility and snags nobody owns. A single mastic package gives one point of responsibility and a consistent finish. For buildings in places like Iwade, one well-planned visit beats several small ones, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote and we will explain how it’s made up.
What you get with us
- Constructionline member for supplier checks
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
- Colours confirmed for the specified product
