Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
What happens if it’s left?
The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: edges get wet, render and timber deteriorate and frames can move. Early action keeps it simple. Halls, stores and units around places like Boughton under Blean may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.

How we handle facade sealing in Boughton under Blean
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. Once a perimeter seal fails, water tracks in around frames and panels. We remove failed sealant and install a new bead chosen for the joint and how far it moves. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, stone and brick facade joints and coping and flashing joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and previous reseals run over old sealant. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Boughton under Blean, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Boughton under Blean is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Each still needs a proper mastic package: window perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant to the specification.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Faults in the structure, damage and other trades’ work fall outside it, and we say so plainly.

Questions about Boughton under Blean
Is Boughton under Blean too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Eastbridge Hospital of St Thomas the Martyr?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, which helps with supplier vetting.
What do you charge?
There isn’t a price list, as every site differs. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
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 type of sealant goes on window perimeters?
The product follows the joint’s movement, the surfaces and the specification. BS EN 15651 Parts 1 and 2 cover facade and glazing sealants, and specifications often name them, and we work to what is specified.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, while larger or less clear jobs get a site visit first.

Our process
Before any cutting starts, the area is protected: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. On site, the work normally takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building, and we clear our waste as we work. For a building around Boughton under Blean, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- The existing bead comes out in full.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Rod goes in to fix the depth, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Before we start on site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Point out any areas we must not close

Different surfaces, different methods
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. We use a product suitable for the stone where the specification names one, with masked edges for a clean line.
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair before sealing.
When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Cladding panel joints
- Shopfront frames
