Mastic sealing near Brook
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What the job involves on each surface
External movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel joints let a building move. Failed sealant in a movement joint lets water in.
Planned maintenance
Resealing can be scheduled alongside other planned works, building by building.
How we handle mastic sealing in Brook
We diagnose before we prescribe: what has failed, what caused it and whether new sealant will actually solve it. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. We work on balcony and threshold joints, shopfronts below residential blocks and window and door perimeters on blocks, and what we are called in for most is mastic failing across several blocks on an estate and a mix of products and colours from past repairs. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Brook first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
For buildings around smaller places like Brook, we group work so one trip covers it. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work in Kent. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will come back to it.

Leave it or put it right?
Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too, and the complaints come with it. For buildings around smaller places like Brook, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
A quote for mastic joints depends on quantities, condition and access. Ask us for a fixed quote.

Maintenance after handover
After handover, these steps help:
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. It helps plan the next round and shows what was done.
Leaks at window perimeters spoil finishes and can affect frames. Resealing early keeps the job small.

Block-wide mastic in Brook
At about 51 miles from central London, Brook is within reach of the capital. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres. Rainfall across the South East, Brook included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building normally need attention first.
Property owners at sites such as Mersham-le-Hatch Business Village (to the south of Brook) can have mastic renewed between lettings. If your remit includes a building such as Brook Community Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Wye station, 2 miles north-west of Brook, and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building.
Brook is about 4 miles east of Ashford, in Kent. Any commercial site in Brook is covered. We work across 931 places in Kent, from busy centres to rural villages. London is covered too, around 51 miles from Brook.
Commercial sites across TN25 are covered for mastic joints. If your site is on The Street, Troy Town Lane and Stonebridge or close by, send details and we’ll quote for mastic joints. Nearby places we also cover include Folly Town (1 mile east), Wye (2 miles north-west), Hinxhill (2 miles south-west), Hastingleigh (2 miles east) and Hassell Street (2 miles north-east). Further afield, our area takes in Ashford (4 miles west), Canterbury (10 miles north-east), Dover (15 miles east), Folkestone (11 miles south-east), Whitstable (14 miles north) and Faversham (11 miles north).

Doing it in-house
Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
When something else is needed
Some faults sit outside our scope, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
If you are not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
