About our construction mastic in St Lawrence
Mastic follows everyone else, which means it absorbs every delay upstream. The sequence is set with the site team and updated as plots or floors are handed over. That keeps the work right first time and saves rework. We work on cladding and panel joints, window and door perimeters and floor and skirting junctions, and the failures we are asked to look at most are early adhesion failures on new external joints and cracks opening in caulked internal joints. Most enquiries from St Lawrence start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
In a smaller place such as St Lawrence, 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.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Your questions answered
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like Nelson College London?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Let us know which documents your site asks for, and we’ll confirm them alongside the quote.
Can the building stay open while you work?
Yes, as long as we plan it. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
Do you use the sealant named in the specification?
We use the product the specification names. If we think an alternative would suit better, we put it to you first.
Can you work plot by plot or floor by floor?
We seal plot by plot or floor by floor as areas are released. The sequence is settled with your site team.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
It depends on the product. Some ranges offer many colours, others very few, so we will confirm the colours available for the specified product with the quote.
Do you do fire-rated sealing on new builds?
It can be part of the package where specified. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Approving fire stopping as compliant
- Faulty frames rather than failed sealant
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Mastic packages on St Lawrence sites
St Lawrence is within about 1 mile of the coast. Coastal exposure means perimeter and cladding joints work harder than on an inland job, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. St Lawrence is about 65 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
Hotel extensions and refits, at places such as Hotel de Ville, less than half a mile south-east of St Lawrence, usually run between busy periods, so the sealing is squeezed into short windows. Projects at schools like Ellington Infant School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.
St Lawrence is about 1 mile west of Ramsgate, in Kent. Our applicators travel to St Lawrence for work on mastic packages. We work across 931 places in Kent, large and small. Our London page has more on work in that area (65 miles or so).

Signs you need construction mastic in St Lawrence
On a live site, contamination is the biggest threat to a new joint. Dust, film adhesive, damp and grease on the joint faces prevent a proper bond.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Caulk cracking where joints are moving more than expected
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
New wings at hospitals like Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother Hospital, 2.8 miles to the north of St Lawrence, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.
Questions to ask before you book
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
For managing agents and facilities managers
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
If you look after buildings for someone else, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.

Related advice
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
What sets the cost
To price the job, we consider:
- The size and state of each joint
- How much existing material needs removing
- The site’s rules and procedures
- How accessible the joints are
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The postcode of the building
- When you need the work done
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
