Construction mastic in West Malling, done properly
Site managers want applicators who turn up with the right cards and paperwork. We are a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and every applicator holds a CSCS card, and we’re fully insured. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. Most enquiries involve old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work and sanitary sealant damaged by following trades, across cladding and panel joints, brick and block movement joints and internal decorators’ caulk. Searching for sealant specialists in West Malling? We have been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Conversions around smaller places like West Malling often join new frames to old masonry or timber, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. If an installation problem shows up, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Questions about West Malling
Can work at a site such as University for the Creative Arts - Maidstone fit around teaching?
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.
Is West Malling off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
What site paperwork can you supply?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
What do you charge?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Do you do fire-rated sealing on new builds?
Where it’s specified, yes. We will flag if the detail needs a different product.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.
Do you guarantee new-build sealant work?
The work is guaranteed for 12 months on the workmanship. Keeping other trades off finished joints prevents most problems.
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)
- Glazing units that are cracked or misted
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
Not sure which it is? You can speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Advice
Why act early in West Malling
Refurbishments sometimes budget for new windows when the frames are sound and only the seal has failed. Sound frames often need only a new perimeter seal and that’s a far smaller job. We will say so if a frame itself is the problem. Small buildings around West Malling suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a fixed quote.

West Malling is about 26 miles from central London. Building activity in the commuter belt runs from new flats near stations to business park refurbishments, which keeps mastic packages in demand.

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.
Fire-rated sealant where specified
Fire-rated sealant is one type of fire-stopping product. Other products are used for some services and gaps so we will flag where the detail needs something different. Record requirements are agreed with the quote.

Signs you need construction mastic in West Malling
Swapping the specified sealant for a cheaper general-purpose product is a common cause of failure. A sealant that isn’t right for the substrate or the movement will fail ahead of time. We stick to the specified product, or put any alternative to you first.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- New external sealant already peeling away
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
- Window and door perimeters that won’t pass inspection
School extensions, at buildings such as More Park Catholic Primary School, typically run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Questions to ask before you book
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
