Questions about Kemsley Street
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University for the Creative Arts - Rochester?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is a smaller place like Kemsley Street outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Can you work to our specification?
Specification first, then the maker’s instructions. Preparation, backing and depth follow the product guidance.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. A group of buildings can go on one quote, with one point of contact across South East England, Greater London and Scotland.
Can you work plot by plot or floor by floor?
Working to your programme, we seal each area as it’s handed over. The sequence is agreed with the site manager at the start and updated as the programme moves.
Can you quote from photographs?
It depends on the job. Simple work can often be priced from photographs, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.

Around smaller places like Kemsley Street, building work typically means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Every job we finish is backed by a 12-month workmanship guarantee, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Doing it in-house
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.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
How the job changes by surface
Kitchens and utility areas
Kitchen joints are sealed after fitting and before final clean. A kitchen-suitable sealant is used and hygienic or food-safe grades wherever food contact is possible.
External facade and movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel movement joints need a sealant with the right movement capability. Depth is controlled with backing rod so the bead bonds to two sides only.
Mastic packages on Kemsley Street sites
Kemsley Street lies roughly 32 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Kemsley Street is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager.
For contractors refurbishing units at places like Hempstead Valley Shopping Centre (0.9 miles north-west of Kemsley Street), the mastic covers cladding panels, roller-door and window perimeters. For contractors on a campus like University for the Creative Arts - Rochester, 4.5 miles north-west of Kemsley Street, facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates.

When it isn’t the sealant
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
If you are not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What else we do in Kemsley Street
Common problems we fix in Kemsley Street
A new building moves while it dries and settles. Plaster, screeds, timber and blockwork all shrink as they lose moisture, which opens up internal joints, particularly where caulk has been used in a joint that moves. Picking a flexible sealant where there’s movement keeps snags down.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- External joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant alone
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
School extensions, at buildings such as Deanwood Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Questions to ask before you book
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Proof of insurance
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- The named product and why it was chosen
