About our mastic sealing in Bidborough
On a residential block, the work happens around people’s lives. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you so you can let residents know what is happening. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use throughout. If you are dealing with communal area joints that look neglected and damp patches beside frames, we can put it right. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Bidborough? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
Rural conversions near places like Bidborough often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Bidborough as everywhere else we work. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Why it’s worth doing now in Bidborough
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. A block-wide reseal gives one product, one colour and one guarantee and one 12-month guarantee. Converted and older buildings near places like Bidborough tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.

FAQs: Bidborough
Do you work in occupied care homes around Bidborough?
Yes. We agree rooms and times with the manager and work a few areas at a time. Tell us about any infection-control or safeguarding requirements and we will work to them.
Can you quote for a block close to Leigh (Kent) station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we’ll quote and plan to suit.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
We do. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and the quote will be based on it, flagging anything that needs clarifying.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Do you work in Bidborough?
Yes. We cover Bidborough, and you can ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to get started.
What about access for upper-floor joints?
Every block is different. We agree access with you at quote stage so there are no surprises.
After the work
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Silicone normally can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it unless told otherwise.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Early resealing is far simpler than repairs inside.

Frames, entrances and external joints in Bidborough
Central London is about 27 miles from Bidborough. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres. Bidborough sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first.
Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Leigh (Kent) station, 2.1 miles north-west of Bidborough, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. For a school such as Southborough CofE Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Older community buildings, Parish Church of St Lawrence among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
