Mastic sealing for Bogle sites

Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.

For managing agents and facilities managers

Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Bogle can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Kent.

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Bogle

Most buildings come with mastic joints nobody has looked at since handover, and it ages quietly: it sits round windows and doors, along external joints and through communal areas. When it hardens, splits or pulls away, water and draughts follow along with complaints. The enquiries we see most involve occupiers reporting cold air round windows and window mastic that has split and shrunk, across shopfronts below residential blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and external wall and movement joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Bogle is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.

In and around smaller places like Bogle, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.

Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, ring 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll come back to it.

What we’re called out for in Bogle

UV and rain age external sealant. It stiffens, stops stretching and cracks most of all on the sunniest and most exposed elevations.

Typical triggers for a call:

  • Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
  • Open joints in brickwork or panels
  • Worn sealant at communal door frames
  • Water getting in round frames after rain

For a school such as Lynsted and Norton Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.

What to look for in a quote

  • What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
  • Their approach to joint depth and backing
  • How they’ll work around occupants
  • Their pre-qualification and accreditations

Questions to ask before you appoint anyone

From enquiry to sign-off

Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and we check in with your contact before moving on to each new area. For work around Bogle, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.

  1. We inspect the joints, building by building, and record what has failed and why.
  2. A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
  3. The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
  4. Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
  5. Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
  6. Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.

Preparing the site

  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Agree which areas must stay open
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Quotes

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.

Should maintenance staff do it?

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.

What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

Surface by surface

External movement joints

Failed sealant is removed, backing rod inserted to control depth and the joint resealed with a grade whose movement class fits.

Estate-wide resealing programmes

An estate of similar buildings suits a rolling programme. Each block is priced and scheduled in order.

FAQs: Bogle

Will you take on a block within reach of Teynham station?

Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.

Can being near the sea in Bogle affect the sealant we need?

It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. 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 covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.

When can the area be used after sealing?

We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.

What about access for upper-floor joints?

It depends on the building. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so there are no surprises.

How long will the new sealant last?

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.

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.

Mastic sealing around Bogle: how the place shapes the job

The sea is no more than about 3 miles from Bogle. On buildings near the shore, the side facing the weather normally needs its mastic renewed first, and they deserve more regular inspection. Central London is about 40 miles from Bogle. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.

Property owners at sites such as Kent Science Park, 3 miles west of Bogle, can have mastic renewed between lettings. Older community buildings, Church of St Peter and St Paul among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

Keeping the joints sound

For the best life from the joints:

  • Log resealing dates block by block
  • Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
  • Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
  • Protect low-level joints in entrances

Encourage occupiers to report water or draughts at frames. A quick report keeps a small repair small.

Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and the complaints that come with it.
