Mastic sealing in Broad Tenterden, done properly

For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Every applicator holds a CSCS card and we hold public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Broad Tenterden carry our 12-month guarantee. The enquiries we see most involve mastic failing across several blocks on an estate and window mastic that has split and shrunk, across shopfronts below residential blocks, window and door perimeters on blocks and communal kitchens and washrooms. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Broad Tenterden from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.

Around smaller places like Broad Tenterden, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Quoting for work in Broad Tenterden

What shapes the price:

  • The total length or number of joints
  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Working within restricted access windows
  • Distance, for remote addresses

We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Sending details for a quote

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:

  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Whether an asbestos survey exists
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them

To get a fixed quote, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. You can also send details through our quote form.

When something else is needed

Some faults sit outside our scope, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:

  • Materials that need asbestos testing before work
  • Substrate edges that need repairing first
  • Leaks from above rather than through a joint

Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly.

Surfaces we seal

  • Window and door perimeters on blocks
  • External wall and movement joints
  • Balcony and threshold joints
  • Shopfronts below residential blocks
  • Communal kitchens and washrooms
  • Communal entrances and stairwells

Planned mastic for Broad Tenterden portfolios

Broad Tenterden is about 46 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide. Broad Tenterden sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.

Older buildings near Broad Tenterden, from historic houses such as Smallhythe Place (1.6 miles south of Broad Tenterden) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. For a school such as Tenterden Church of England Junior School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.

Broad Tenterden is about 9 miles south-west of Ashford, in Kent. If you’re looking for mastic sealing in Broad Tenterden, we can help, as we do across Kent. Broad Tenterden is one of 931 places in Kent on our list for mastic joints. Sites around Brighton have their own page, about 39 miles away.

Signs you need mastic sealing in Broad Tenterden

Poor preparation explains many failed joints. Where the faces weren’t cleaned or primed as specified it comes away from one face.

Things that typically lead to an enquiry:

  • Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
  • No planned programme for sealant
  • Movement joints with sealant missing
  • Draughts at frames across a block

If you are responsible for a building such as Parish Church of St Mildred, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.

What to look for in a quote

  • Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
  • Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
  • Their approach to joint depth and backing
  • Who will actually carry out the work

Choosing a commercial sealant contractor

Broad Tenterden: questions and answers

Does your area include sites such as Pickhill Business Centre, near Broad Tenterden?

Yes, sites like Pickhill Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Broad Tenterden. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.

Is a smaller place like Broad Tenterden outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

Will you quote for a small job?

Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: details, then a fixed price, then sealing, then a 12-month guarantee.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.

Can people stay in the building while you reseal?

Occupiers stay in the building throughout. If any flats or units need access, we’ll tell you in advance so you can arrange it with occupiers.

When can the area be used after sealing?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.

Can you quote from photos?

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

After the work

Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:

  • List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
  • Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
  • Start inspections with the most exposed faces
  • Group repairs into a planned programme

Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. That makes future programmes easier to plan and shows what was done.

Failed mastic often goes unnoticed until heavy rain finds it. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and saves internal repairs.

How a job runs

Diagnose, treat, sign off: every visit follows that pattern. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then the work is carried out to the specified product and detail, and we finish with a walk round so the work can be signed off. For a building around Broad Tenterden, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.

  1. A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
  2. The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
  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.

What we need from you

  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
  • Let building users know which areas are affected
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
