About our construction mastic in Snodland
The programme rarely stands still, so the mastic package has to flex with it. The sequence is set with the site team and updated as plots or floors are handed over and we don’t seal before other trades have finished in an area. That keeps the work right first time and saves rework. Site teams most often ask us about frame gaps too wide for sealant alone and old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work, on sanitary and kitchen joints, floor and skirting junctions and internal decorators’ caulk. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Snodland, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Around places like Snodland, a lot of construction is the conversion of older buildings, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Honest limits
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we have sealed
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think.
What we seal
- Brick and block movement joints
- Cladding and panel joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
- Internal decorators’ caulk
Signs you need construction mastic in Snodland
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, and the joint has to be redone.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
- Snag items on joints that need redoing before handover
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot
School extensions, at buildings such as Snodland CofE Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
What your quote should include
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- How they’ll work around occupants
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
Cost factors for mastic packages
To price the job, we consider:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- The size and state of each joint
- Working within restricted access windows
- Access and working height
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need to understand the site. Send us:
- The product your specification calls for
- The postcode of the building
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.
On site: what to expect
Before we leave any area, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. For a job in Snodland, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photographs of each area. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
- Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
- The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
- Each area is sealed when it’s released.
- Joints are prepared, backed and sealed to the specification.
- Snags are cleared and the package signed off with our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
Patching snags as they appear can feel quicker than a proper close-out. A planned sweep of each plot or floor catches the lot in one go and saves applicators coming back again and again. Snagging can be priced as a separate stage. In a smaller place such as Snodland, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Common questions from Snodland clients
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Maidstone Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Tell us which site documents you need, such as RAMS, our insurance certificate or CSCS details, and they’re confirmed with the quote.
What will the job cost?
That depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Can you come in just for snagging?
Yes. Snag-only work is something we take on.

New build and refits around Snodland
Snodland lies roughly 26 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. Snodland sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
University estates such as University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone (4.8 miles south-east of Snodland) tend to have a rolling programme of new buildings and refurbishments, each with window perimeters and facade joints to seal. With historic properties like Starkey Castle, 2.5 miles north of Snodland, in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
