How do we ask for a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
How soon can the area be used again?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.
Can one quote cover more than one building?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, planned site by site to suit how each building is used.
Construction mastic in Northchapel
On a new build, the mastic package is one of the last trades through each area, which puts it right on the critical path. Mastic Doctor takes on mastic packages for main contractors and developers, following the trades through the building as rooms and elevations become ready. Most enquiries involve different trades sealing to different standards and snag items on joints that need redoing before handover, on window and door perimeters, brick and block movement joints and floor and skirting junctions. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: in Northchapel, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
In the countryside around places like Northchapel, 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.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Facades, frames and programmes in Northchapel
Northchapel is about 39 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Rainfall across the South East, Northchapel included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
When a school such as Northchapel Community Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Colhook Industrial Park., 2.2 miles to the south of Northchapel, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. New wings at hospitals like Haslemere and District Hospital (to the north-west of Northchapel) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.
Northchapel is about 12 miles south-east of Farnham, in West Sussex. We send applicators to Northchapel for mastic packages. Northchapel is one of 373 places in West Sussex on our list for mastic packages. Sites around Portsmouth have their own page, roughly 26 miles from Northchapel.

Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Window and door perimeters
Inside, a paintable sealant or decorators’ caulk is used where the joint doesn’t move much. We follow what’s specified.
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulk is easy to apply badly. Done properly, it saves decorators time and gives a clean line and keeps the snag list down.

Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Put any product change through the designer first
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Ask cleaners to use soft cloths around fresh sealant
- Keep product details for future maintenance
A new structure shifts as it loses construction moisture. Flexible sealants in the right joints handle normal movement, but caulk in a joint that moves more than expected may crack. If that happens, let us know.
In wet areas, a weak sanitary joint shows up quickly once the building is occupied. Water gets behind trays, vanity tops and panels. Proper preparation, with the right silicone first time, keeps it off the defects list.
Owners, agents and contractors
Agents, factors and owners’ representatives all follow the same route: send the details, accept a fixed quote, and we carry out and guarantee the work. Keys, access and contacts can be agreed in advance.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
What happens if it’s left?
Leaving mastic to whichever trade is fitting the element can look cheaper on paper. The result tends to be uneven finishes and arguments about who should seal what. One mastic subcontractor for the lot keeps it simple and a consistent finish. Older rural buildings around Northchapel move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

What sealant work can’t fix
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Joints damaged after sign-off by following trades
- Specifying the product where the designer hasn’t
- Oversized gaps that need packing or adjustment by others
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
