Mastic sealing in Eastry, done properly
Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and the work is backed by public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. We work on balcony and threshold joints, communal kitchens and washrooms and shopfronts below residential blocks, and what we are called in for most is water getting in round frames after rain and communal area joints that look neglected. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Eastry from the first photographs to the final walk-round, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Owners with buildings around smaller places like Eastry often group mastic work so one visit covers several properties. Send the addresses and photos and we’ll quote for all of them together.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Our process
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. For a job in Eastry, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photos of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- We check the asbestos register for older buildings and look at the joints.
- The products and programme are set out in a fixed quote.
- We strip out the old sealant.
- The joints are prepared and resealed with the right product.
- Buildings are completed in turn.
What we need from you
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
Quotes
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
Advice
How the quote is worked out
To price the job, we consider:
- The product specified
- Working within restricted access windows
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Joint width, depth and condition
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Tell us:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Access details, including height
- The site address and postcode
- Specification clauses that apply
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

What we’re called out for in Eastry
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and every joint has to stretch and squeeze with them. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits long before it should.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Draughts at frames across a block
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
For agents with blocks near Sandwich station (2.3 miles north-east of Eastry), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.
Questions to ask before you book
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Who will actually carry out the work
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
What happens if it’s left?
Draughts round window perimeters cost occupiers comfort, and they often blame the windows. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it where the frames themselves are sound. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote once you have the details.
Why choose Mastic Doctor in Eastry
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- Fully insured, including public liability cover
- Constructionline member
- Workmanship guaranteed for 12 months

Blocks and managed buildings in Eastry
Central London is about 63 miles from Eastry. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres. Rainfall across the South East, Eastry included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first.
Historic properties like Goodnestone Park, 3.4 miles to the west of Eastry, show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone. If your remit includes a building such as Eastry Church of England Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

How the job changes by surface
Planned maintenance
Planned resealing replaces emergency callouts and spreads the work.
Tenement and older buildings
Some old mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos, so we check the asbestos register or survey first. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Your questions answered
We manage a building near Sandwich station. Can you help?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Is Birnham Farm Business Centre, near Eastry, within your area?
Yes. Our area takes in Eastry and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Birnham Farm Business Centre included. To start, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is Eastry in your area?
Yes. Eastry falls within our area, and the simplest way to start is to phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
We do. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work, and we quote building by building or as a programme.
Which sealant will you use?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. If there isn’t one, it comes down to the joint: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
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, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
Maintenance after handover
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over unless told otherwise.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing and the job grows.
