Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Deerton Street
Older blocks and commercial buildings can have mastic that contains asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is cut out, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, communal kitchens and washrooms and window and door perimeters on blocks, and what we’re called in for most is failed external movement joints and communal area joints that look neglected. Most enquiries from Deerton Street start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
Around smaller places like Deerton Street, 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.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Cost factors for mastic joints
Your fixed quote is built from the real scope. It allows for:
- Access and working height
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Phasing around occupants
- How much there is to seal
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Before you send an enquiry
To price the job accurately, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- When you need the work done
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The type of building and who uses it
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. The easiest way is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Surface by surface
Planned maintenance
Resealing can be scheduled alongside other planned works, building by building.
External movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel joints let a building move. Once that sealant goes, rain can reach the wall.
FAQs: Deerton Street
Does the sea air around Deerton Street change the choice of sealant?
It can. Wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. Product choice and preparation matter more, and sea-facing elevations are worth inspecting more often.
Will you take on a block within reach of Teynham station?
Yes, and several blocks can go on one quote. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
How long does a typical visit take?
The duration is planned around your programme and the access we are given. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the number of storeys and whether scaffold or other access is planned, and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
How soon can the area be used again?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
On site: what to expect
Inspect, seal, sign off: that’s the shape of every visit. First comes an inspection and agreement on scope, then we prepare and seal each joint with the specified product, and the job ends with a walk round and sign-off. For work around Deerton Street, we aim to finish in one visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.

Advice
Planned mastic for Deerton Street portfolios
Deerton Street sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles. Blocks and commercial buildings facing the sea take the most weather on their window perimeters and external joints, and they deserve more regular inspection. Deerton Street 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.
Historic properties like Belmont House and Gardens (4.1 miles south of Deerton Street) show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone. Older community buildings, Church of St Mary among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. Schools and community buildings such as Teynham Parochial Church of England Primary School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building.
Deerton Street is about 3 miles west of Faversham, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Deerton Street, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. We work across 931 places in Kent, large and small. For work in that direction, see our London page.

General trades versus a specialist
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
There’s also the paperwork. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Work for main contractors and building owners
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Deerton Street can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Kent.
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so the building keeps working while we do.

What else we do in Deerton Street
What sealant work can’t fix
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
Not sure which it is? You can call 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
