About our mastic sealing in Bloodden
Across Bloodden and the rest of Kent, we work the same way: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. A list of buildings, a few photographs and approximate joint numbers are enough for a quick quote or we can visit. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, window and door perimeters on blocks and external wall and movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are occupiers reporting cold air round windows and open joints in brickwork or panels. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Bloodden tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Rural conversions near places like Bloodden often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
If you’re not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Bloodden
How the job changes by surface
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Priority order can follow condition, complaints or your maintenance plan. Quotes can be per block or for the full programme.
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. Colours are confirmed for the product used.
How the quote is worked out
Each job is priced on its own details. The things that drive the figure:
- How much existing material needs removing
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Access and working height
- Phasing around occupants
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Sending details for a quote
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Specification clauses that apply
Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule and a fixed quote comes back to you. Where a site visit makes more sense, we will arrange one.
When to bring in a specialist
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. If others near Bloodden need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
Before we start on site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements

Mastic sealing around Bloodden: what changes locally
At about 58 miles from central London, Bloodden is within reach of the capital. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres. Bloodden sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first.
If you own or manage units on a site such as CT3 Business Park, 1.2 miles south of Bloodden, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. For a school such as Adisham Church of England Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Older buildings near Bloodden, from historic houses such as Goodnestone Park, 1.5 miles to the east of Bloodden, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.
Bloodden is about 6 miles south-east of Canterbury, in Kent. If you’re looking for mastic sealing in Bloodden, we can help, as we do across Kent. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, from busy centres to rural villages. Our London page has more on work in that area (58 miles or so).

Common questions from Bloodden clients
Can you quote for a block close to Adisham station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
Is CT3 Business Park, near Bloodden, within your area?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Bloodden, CT3 Business Park among them, are all within reach. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Does the weather affect the work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Internal work is far less affected.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
How long will the new sealant last?
There’s no fixed lifespan: movement, exposure, cleaning, traffic and the product all play a part. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
How long before the joints can be used?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
Aftercare for building managers
Cleaning and maintenance staff play a part too. Pass these on to them:
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Then the edges may need repairing first and the job grows.
