Facade sealing in Appledore Heath, done properly
Installing framed glazing systems isn’t part of our work. We handle the sealant joints that surround those elements: perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, panel joints and window perimeters. If you’re dealing with unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and leaks at window and door perimeters, we can help, on stone and brick facade joints, coping and flashing joints and cladding panel joints alike. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Appledore Heath? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

When something else is needed
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll say what we think.

Common questions from Appledore Heath clients
Is a smaller place like Appledore Heath outside your area?
Not at all. Appledore Heath is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What site paperwork comes with a job in Appledore Heath?
RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details: list what the site needs and we’ll confirm it with the quote. We’re CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, with £5m public liability insurance and CSCS-carded applicators.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Failed perimeter sealant is a common cause, but not the only one, and we will be honest about which it is.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
Can you work on upper floors?
That comes down to the access arranged for the job. Share what access exists or is planned when you send details, and we will agree the approach together.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. Overlaying is a shortcut that peels away quickly. Our method is a full cut-out, cleaning, backing and a new bead.
After the work
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Keep sills, gutters and drainage paths clear
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Sealant copes better when water runs off the facade as designed rather than sitting against the joints.
Tie resealing in with redecoration, cladding repairs or other access. One set-up for several trades saves money and cuts time on site.
Commercial clients in Appledore Heath
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Leave it or put it right?
Resealing a few window perimeters is a small job; repairing water-damaged interiors and fixings is not. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts, often turning up far from the joint. Older rural buildings around Appledore Heath move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

What sets the cost
The price varies from site to site. Expect it to depend on:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Location, for remote and island sites
- The site’s rules and procedures
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Details that help us quote
A few photos plus some basic facts will normally do. It helps to include:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- What the building is and how it’s used
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings if you’d rather talk the job through.
