Mastic sealing near Bay View

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

How we handle mastic sealing in Bay View

Blocks are lived in, so access and disruption have to be thought through. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you, giving you what you need to notify residents. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use throughout. If you have repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and draught complaints from residents or tenants, we can help. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Bay View is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

For owners with a single building near Bay View, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. You get a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Planned mastic for Bay View portfolios

The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Bay View. On buildings near the shore, the side facing the weather typically needs its mastic renewed first. Bay View is about 43 miles from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres.

Wherever your building is in or near Bay View, we look at the whole elevation before quoting, so you know what needs doing now. For owners and agents with buildings in or around Bay View, block-wide mastic programmes deal with frames and external joints of the same age together.

Bay View is about 4 miles east of Minster, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Bay View, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. Bay View is one of 931 places in Kent on our list. There’s a separate page for London, about 43 miles away.

We cover the ME12 postcode districts. For a building on Mustards Road, Warden View Gardens and Danes Drive or nearby, send details and we’ll quote for mastic joints. Just outside Bay View, we also work in Uplees (4 miles south), Oare (5 miles south), Conyer (5 miles south-west), Teynham Street (5 miles south-west) and The Brents (5 miles south). Nearby towns on our patch include Canterbury (11 miles south-east), Sittingbourne (8 miles south-west), Whitstable (7 miles south-east), Faversham (6 miles south), Herne Bay (10 miles east) and Minster (4 miles west).

Should maintenance staff do it?

The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are where general trades tend to cut corners.

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.

How the quote is worked out

These are the things that shape the price:

  • The product specified
  • Distance, for remote addresses
  • The site’s rules and procedures
  • Any access equipment needed

Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

Before you send an enquiry

Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:

  • When you need the work done
  • The postcode of the building
  • Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
  • Specification clauses that apply

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email with what you know.

Different surfaces, different methods

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Commercial occupiers normally stay open during the work so the work is phased.

Window and door perimeters on blocks

Frames vary from uPVC to aluminium and timber, so the grade we pick has to bond to frame and wall alike. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.

Bay View: questions and answers

Is a smaller place like Bay View outside your area?

Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. London and every South East county are within our area. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Does the sea air around Bay View change the choice of sealant?

It can. Driven rain and salt are tougher on outside sealant than sheltered inland conditions. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.

Do you guarantee the mastic work?

A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.

What’s the quickest route to a quote?

There are four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.

Will you just go over the old sealant?

No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.

Will you come and look before quoting?

That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs usually get a visit.

When is resealing likely to be due?

There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.

Leave it or put it right?

Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too and occupiers notice. Halls, stores and units around places like Bay View may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.

Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.

Commercial clients in Bay View

Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients book us directly too. The work is planned around how the building runs, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.

Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Bay View can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Kent.

Our process

A typical day starts with protection: masking tape along the joint edges and sheeting over anything nearby. The work itself normally takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access, and our waste is bagged and taken away as we go. For a building around Bay View, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.

  1. A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
  2. You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
  3. Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
  4. Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
  5. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Tell staff and tenants when we will be in
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Point out any areas we must not close
