Mastic sealing for Eastwood sites

Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.

What the job involves on each surface

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Mixed-use buildings combine shops below with flats or offices above, so phasing has to suit both. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.

Window and door perimeters on blocks

Blocks have a mix of frame materials, and the product is matched to the frame material and the masonry. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product.

Mastic sealing in Eastwood

Across Eastwood and the rest of Kent, we work the same way: you send details, we return a fixed quote, the joints are resealed and the 12-month guarantee follows. A list of buildings, a few photos and approximate joint numbers are enough for a quick quote or we can visit. Site teams most often ask us about damp patches beside frames and failed external movement joints, on external wall and movement joints, communal entrances and stairwells and shopfronts below residential blocks. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Eastwood? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.

For buildings around smaller places like Eastwood, we group work so one trip covers it. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.

Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What sets the cost

We price every job individually. The main factors are:

  • Backing rod, priming and other preparation
  • Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
  • Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
  • Any access equipment needed

There’s no price list, 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.

Before you send an enquiry

It doesn’t need to be a full survey. These details are enough to start:

  • Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
  • How the joints are reached, and at what height
  • Clear photos of the problem areas
  • What the building is and how it’s used

We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email.

From enquiry to sign-off

Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. For a building around Eastwood, tell us how to find it and who will meet us. Add it to your enquiry and we’ll build it into the plan.

  1. We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
  2. The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
  3. Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
  4. Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
  5. Joints are resealed and tooled.
  6. We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.

Preparing the site

  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
  • Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with what you know.

When it isn’t the sealant

We check first that sealant really is the fix. It won’t put right:

  • Misted or failed double-glazed units
  • Leaks from above rather than through a joint
  • Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove

If you’re not sure, just give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

Surfaces we seal

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

Work for main contractors and building owners

Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.

As a CHAS accredited contractor and Constructionline member, we’re straightforward to vet for your supplier list. Our insurance certificate can be sent along with the quote.

Blocks and managed buildings in Eastwood

The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building usually need attention first. At about 38 miles from central London, Eastwood is within reach of the capital. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.

Historic properties like Leeds Castle (to the north-west of Eastwood) show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone. Property owners at sites such as Roebuck Business Park, 2.6 miles north of Eastwood, can have mastic renewed between lettings. Schools and community buildings such as Ulcombe Church of England Primary School need frame and external mastic kept sound like any building.

Eastwood is about 7 miles south-east of Maidstone, in Kent. We send applicators to Eastwood for mastic joints. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places. We also cover London, some 38 miles away.

Work on mastic joints is covered throughout ME17. If your building is just outside Eastwood, we cover Broadstone (1 mile south-east), Grafty Green (1 mile east), Ulcombe (1 mile north-west), Fairbourne Heath (1 mile north) and Liverton Street (1 mile north-east). Further afield, our area takes in Maidstone (7 miles north-west), Ashford (10 miles south-east), Sittingbourne (10 miles north), Faversham (12 miles north-east), Kings Hill (12 miles north-west) and Davington (12 miles north-east).

Common questions from Eastwood clients

Does your area include sites such as Roebuck Business Park, near Eastwood?

Yes. We cover Eastwood and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Roebuck Business Park. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.

Is Eastwood too small for you to travel to?

Not at all. Eastwood is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?

Let us know your requirements: tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.

Does weather matter for sealant work?

For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.

How do I request a quote?

It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photographs and a postcode.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.

Can you reseal a whole block or estate?

Block-wide and estate programmes are common. You get a fixed quote per building or for the whole job.

Why act early in Eastwood

Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It doesn’t bond and typically fails within a short time. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts. Around Eastwood, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
