When it isn’t the sealant
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Damp caused by condensation inside the building
- Joints whose design needs changing by the specifier
- Specialist high-level access methods
If in doubt, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think.
What we seal

- Coping and flashing joints
- Shopfront frames
Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Brownbread Street
External joints face UV, rain, temperature swings and building movement all year. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. We work on stone and brick facade joints, coping and flashing joints and window and door perimeters, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames. Most enquiries from Brownbread Street start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
For a site near Brownbread Street, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand, timed to the stage the job has reached. Send drawings or photos and the programme and we’ll quote to suit.
Work we carry out in East Sussex comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will arrange a return visit.

Questions about Brownbread Street
Can the mastic package for our job in Brownbread Street follow the site programme?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we will plan the mastic to suit the stages. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, and paperwork such as RAMS is confirmed with the quote.
Is Brownbread Street too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Will you quote for a small job?
We quote for single jobs as well as large packages and programmes. Photos and a description are enough to start.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No, never. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
Our process
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Rural sites near Brownbread Street may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- We start with photographs, drawings or a visit to see the joints and agree access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- Failed beads are removed in full.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Preparing the site
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work

Maintenance after handover
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
- Check that rainwater leaves the facade the way it was designed to
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
- Inspect facade joints on a regular cycle
Following storms, look inside for damp or staining near frames. An early report typically means a small reseal rather than a bigger repair.
Don’t wait for a full elevation to fail. Small repairs stop small leaks becoming large ones inside the building.
Facade sealing around Brownbread Street: how the place shapes the job
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team. Brownbread Street is about 46 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes.
On any site in or around Brownbread Street, the mastic follows the specification and the programme. On a healthcare site such as Amberstone Hospital, 5.2 miles south-west of Brownbread Street, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.

How the quote is worked out
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- How much existing material needs removing
- Joint width, depth and condition
Pricing facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, plus any specification you’re working to. Ask us for a fixed quote.
What we need to price the job
To price the job accurately, we need to understand the site. Useful things to include:
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Specification clauses that apply
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.
General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
What happens if it’s left?
Topping up a failed joint normally buys very little time. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer. Halls, stores and units around places like Brownbread Street may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a fixed quote when you’re ready.
