About our construction mastic in Norham Manor
On refurbishments, the mastic package typically includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Existing joints have to be stripped back to sound faces, because fresh sealant can’t key into cured silicone and the asbestos survey is checked first on older stock. After that, the joints are prepared and sealed to the specification. If you have oversized or tapered gaps around new frames and failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished, we can help, on floor and skirting junctions, cladding and panel joints and window and door perimeters alike. Searching for sealant specialists in Norham Manor? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
In a smaller place such as Norham Manor, construction tends to mean small housing schemes, conversions and extensions to community buildings. Even a small site needs its perimeter and facade joints sized, backed and sealed properly.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Different surfaces, different methods
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Not every penetration suits a sealant. Other products are used for some services and gaps so we will flag where the detail needs something different. Tell us what records you need and we’ll confirm with the quote.
External facade and movement joints
Movement joints in the facade are sealed with a product suited to the expected movement. We set the depth with backing rod to avoid three-sided adhesion.
When to call us in Norham Manor
Wide, tapered or inconsistent gaps around frames are a common problem. Sealant has a range of joint widths it can cope with, so gaps outside that range need sorting by the installer first. Better to raise it at the start than seal a joint that’s bound to fail.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Sanitary sealant damaged by following trades
- Early adhesion failures on new external joints
- Oversized or tapered gaps around new frames
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
Hotels like Old Parsonage Hotel (under half a mile south of Norham Manor) rarely close for long, so refurbishment mastic is phased floor by floor.
Comparing quotes
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
Honest limits
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. We will tell you if the real problem is one of these:
- Glazing units that are cracked or misted
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
- Frame gaps too wide for sealant, which the installer needs to correct
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Internal decorators’ caulk

General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
