About our construction mastic in Wigmore
Mastic Doctor has been a subcontractor on construction projects for over 20 years. Quantities come off the drawings, the sequence is agreed with the site manager and the work follows the trades. To price a package in Wigmore, send drawings and the specification through our quote form. We work on floor and skirting junctions, cladding and panel joints and internal decorators’ caulk, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are different trades sealing to different standards and cracks opening in caulked internal joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Wigmore? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Around places like Wigmore, a lot of construction is the conversion of older buildings, which leaves joints between old walls and new frames that need a sealant able to take the movement.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application, and we come back if anything isn’t right.

Mastic packages on Wigmore sites
Wigmore sits close to the coast, within about 3 miles. Facades and window perimeters on coastal schemes take more wind-driven rain, and salt air nearer the shore, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. Central London is about 31 miles from Wigmore. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
For contractors on a campus like University of Greenwich - Medway (3.8 miles north-west of Wigmore), facade and perimeter sealing has to fit around students and term dates. Hospital estates such as Medway Maritime Hospital, 2.8 miles to the north-west of Wigmore, tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan. School extensions, at buildings such as Park Wood Infant School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
Wigmore is about 1 mile south-east of Gillingham, in Medway. We send applicators to Wigmore for mastic packages, handled exactly as we handle every other area. Our Medway coverage takes in 54 places. We also cover London, some 31 miles away.
Anyone looking for construction mastic in ME8 gets the same process as the rest of our area: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. Among the streets we cover are Durham Road, Harvey Road and Arthur Road, and sites on any of them can send details for a fixed quote. We also cover Park Wood (1 mile south), Hempstead (1 mile west), Twydall (1 mile north), Gillingham (1 mile north-west) and Capstone (2 miles west). Nearby towns on our patch include Chatham (3 miles west), Rochester (5 miles north-west), Strood (6 miles north-west), Luton (3 miles west), Lordswood (3 miles south-west) and Hoo St Werburgh (5 miles north).
Around Wigmore
We work on buildings around Foxburrow Wood, Howard School and The Railway pub. The nearest railway station is Rainham (Kent) station, about 1 mile north-east of the centre. Nearby you’ll also find Upnor Castle (4.6 miles north-west) and Pentagon Shopping Centre (3.6 miles north-west). Not far away are Boxley Hills and Bishop Saltings.
On site: what to expect
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. What matters most for a job in Wigmore is a clear list of what needs doing. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- First we take quantities off the drawings and read through the specification.
- We return a fixed quote that ties the mastic package to your programme.
- Any site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) is confirmed with the quote.
- Areas are sealed plot by plot or floor by floor as the trades hand them over.
- Joints are cleaned, primed where the maker requires it, backed and sealed to the specification.
- Before handover, snags are dealt with and the package is signed off under our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Move anything stored against the joints

After the work
To get the most from the new sealant:
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Stick to the specified sealant rather than a generic substitute
Our 12-month guarantee covers the workmanship from sign-off. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault, so protecting sealed areas matters.
In wet areas, a weak sanitary joint shows up quickly once the building is occupied. Water gets behind trays, vanity tops and panels, and the repair falls into the defects period. Proper preparation, with the right silicone first time, keeps it off the defects list.
Work for main contractors and building owners
CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we are straightforward to vet for your supplier list. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. Programme, specification and site rules come first.
Different surfaces, different methods
Internal decorators’ caulk
Caulk is easy to apply badly. A neat, consistent caulk line makes the decorators’ job quicker and reduces snags.
Kitchens and utility areas
Kitchen joints are sealed after fitting and before final clean. The sealant is a kitchen-grade product and hygienic or food-safe grades wherever food contact is possible.
Why it’s worth doing now in Wigmore
Leaving mastic to whichever trade is fitting the element can look cheaper on paper. The result tends to be uneven finishes and arguments about who should seal what. A single mastic package gives one point of responsibility. In a smaller place such as Wigmore, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.

FAQs: Wigmore
Is Wigmore too far out for you?
No. Places such as Wigmore are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Does a coastal location like Wigmore affect which sealant is used?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We confirm what’s available for the specified product when we quote.
What does a mastic package usually include?
The scope comes from the specification and drawings, but most packages include frame perimeters, sanitary and kitchen joints, caulking where specified and a snagging pass.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Can you seal external joints in wet or cold weather?
Outside, the joint has to be dry and the temperature within the product’s limits. Damp, frost or condensation on frames can stop work so we typically switch to internal work when that happens.
What will the job cost?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with a description of the work.
Doing it in-house
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint, which is what makes a joint last.
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
