Questions we are asked in Snoll Hatch
Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Tonbridge Cottage Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as University of Kent - Tonbridge?
Yes. We plan campus work around teaching, exams and residence turnarounds. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
What joints do you seal on a new build?
External and internal frame perimeters, caulking where it’s specified, sanitary silicone, kitchen joints and snagging before handover. We price to the specification and drawings.
What accreditations do you hold?
We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with CSCS-carded applicators. We are also fully insured, with five million pounds of public liability cover.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so tell us what you need and we will confirm it when we quote.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
That depends on the product specified. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
About our construction mastic in Snoll Hatch
On refurbishments, the mastic package normally includes cutting out old sealant as well as sealing new work. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old. After that, the joints are prepared and sealed to the specification. Most enquiries involve a mastic package split between trades with no clear owner and bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean, on internal decorators’ caulk, floor and skirting junctions and window and door perimeters. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Snoll Hatch from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Around smaller places like Snoll Hatch, building work normally means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
- Get the mastic subcontractor involved early in the programme
- Record the products used in the O&M file
The package carries our 12-month guarantee for workmanship. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault.
Frames with gaps too wide for sealant need sorting before the mastic goes on. Filling a wide gap with sealant alone sets up a failure so packing or adjustment by the installer comes first. We flag them as soon as we see them.
When something else is needed
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Damage to finishes by other trades after we have sealed
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
- Brick and block movement joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Cladding and panel joints
Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.

What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Working within restricted access windows
- Access and working height
- How much existing material needs removing
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Sending details for a quote
Good information means a firmer quote. Helpful details to send:
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The site address and postcode
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
The quickest route to a quote is a few photographs and the site postcode. Upload them with the quote form, or ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form if you’d rather talk the job through.
Different surfaces, different methods
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Where the specification calls for fire-rated or intumescent sealant around service penetrations or linear gaps, we install it to the manufacturer’s tested detail. The design and sign-off of fire stopping sit with the designer, principal designer or fire engineer; we work to the specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulking is often done in a hurry by whoever’s on site. Done properly, it saves decorators time and gives a clean line and reduces snags.
On site: what to expect
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, with the work itself usually taking as long as the agreed sequence needs, which comes down to joint lengths, access and handover dates. For a building around Snoll Hatch, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
- Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
