Construction mastic for Perrywood sites

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

How we handle construction mastic in Perrywood

Most of the packages we price run well beyond frames: external door and window perimeters, internal decorators’ caulk where specified, sanitary joints in bathrooms and washrooms, kitchen worktops and splashbacks, and snagging before handover. Splitting those between trades often leaves gaps in responsibility. We work on floor and skirting junctions, cladding and panel joints and brick and block movement joints, and the failures we are asked to look at most are existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing and new external sealant already peeling away. Whoever orders the work in Perrywood, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.

Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Perrywood bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is normally what’s needed.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Sites and facades in and around Perrywood

Central London is about 47 miles from Perrywood. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, which keeps mastic packages in demand. Rainfall across the South East, Perrywood included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.

Older buildings in the area around Perrywood, such as Belmont House and Gardens (3.4 miles west of Perrywood), need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.

Perrywood is about 4 miles south-east of Faversham, in Kent. We send applicators to Perrywood for mastic packages, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, large and small. There’s a separate page for London, roughly 47 miles from Perrywood.

Commercial clients in Perrywood

If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. You get a fixed quote, an agreed scope and a walk round at the end.

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

Common problems we fix in Perrywood

Most mastic snags on new buildings come from sequencing rather than product. Sealing before decorators, flooring or other trades have finished leaves joints exposed to damage, so they end up back on the snag list.

If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:

  • Different trades sealing to different standards
  • Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
  • Oversized or tapered gaps around new frames
  • Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades

Projects at schools like Selling Church of England Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

Our contractor checklist

Surface by surface

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.

Snagging before handover

Snagging is often the final mastic stage. We can work through the snag list area by area and damaged joints are redone rather than patched.

Leave it or put it right?

Sealing over damaged or contaminated new joints might save a day. Sealant can’t grip a contaminated or existing bead and the defect reappears in the defects period. Damaged joints are removed and resealed from clean faces. Converted and older buildings near places like Perrywood tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we’ll put a fixed figure on it.

Diagnose, treat, sign off

When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself typically taking anything from a day of snagging to several weeks of plot-by-plot sealing on a phased scheme. If others near Perrywood need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. We price from the drawings, specification and programme you send.
  2. We return a fixed quote that ties the mastic package to your programme.
  3. Any site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) is confirmed with the quote.
  4. We seal each plot or floor as it’s released to us.
  5. Joints are cleaned, primed where the maker requires it, backed and sealed to the specification.
  6. Before handover, snags are dealt with and the package is signed off under our 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Let us know about inductions and permits
  • Point out any areas we must not close

Related advice

Should maintenance staff do it?

There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.

Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.

Questions we are asked in Perrywood

Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Perrywood?

Yes, we work to the programme and the sequence the site sets. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.

Is a smaller place like Perrywood outside your area?

Not at all. Perrywood is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.

Do you take on small jobs?

Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

How do you deal with asbestos in old sealant?

Asbestos is possible in some older mastics, particularly in buildings from before 2000. We check the asbestos register before cutting out old sealant in an older building, and work stops until any suspect material has been tested. Removing asbestos is a job for asbestos specialists, not us.

Do you have public liability insurance?

Yes. Our insurance certificate can be sent alongside the quote.

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. Include photographs or drawings if you have them.

Can the building stay open while you work?

In the majority of cases, yes. We phase the work so most of the building stays in use.
