About our construction mastic in Marshborough
Perimeter sealing outside needs a dry joint and the right temperature. Cold or damp mornings, frost and condensation on frames can all hold external sealing up. Internal areas can usually carry on while the outside waits. Most enquiries involve existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing and new external sealant already peeling away, on cladding and panel joints, sanitary and kitchen joints and floor and skirting junctions. For commercial sealant work in Marshborough, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, whether it’s one building or several.
In the countryside around places like Marshborough, 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.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will come back to it.

Different surfaces, different methods
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.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Fire-rated sealant is one type of fire-stopping product. Other products are used for some services and gaps. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
When something else is needed
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. You will hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Frames fitted out of tolerance
- Fire-stopping design or sign-off (that’s for the designer, fire engineer and building control)
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

For managing agents and facilities managers
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units come to us directly as well. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Whether you are a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Common problems we fix in Marshborough
A joint without backing rod or bond-breaker often fails early. Fixed to three faces, the sealant rips the first time the joint opens, so depth is controlled with backing rod or bond-breaker tape.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Different trades sealing to different standards
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- Existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing
New units and refits on sites such as Birnham Farm Business Centre (0.8 miles south-west of Marshborough) need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification.

Related advice
Keeping the joints sound
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Flag uneven or tapered frame gaps early
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Don’t schedule sealing before decorators and flooring are done
- Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
Our 12-month guarantee covers the workmanship from sign-off. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault.
Frames with gaps too wide for sealant need sorting before the mastic goes on. Sealant stretched over an oversized gap won’t last. We raise them during our first walk of the area.
