How we handle mastic sealing in Finglesham

Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Every applicator holds a CSCS card, and the work is backed by public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Finglesham carry our 12-month guarantee. The enquiries we see most involve a mix of products and colours from past repairs and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors, on communal kitchens and washrooms, shopfronts below residential blocks and balcony and threshold joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Finglesham from the first photographs to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.

For buildings around smaller places like Finglesham, we group work so one trip covers it. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.

Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, in Finglesham as everywhere else we work. If a joint we sealed fails because of how it was installed, we come back and put it right.

On site: what to expect

When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, and the work typically takes anything from a day to a few weeks, depending on the number of buildings and joints. Smaller jobs around Finglesham can be grouped with others nearby, which keeps travel down. You will have a fixed quote before work starts.

  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. New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
  6. We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.

Before we start on site

  • For older buildings, check the asbestos register before work
  • Send any specification or drawings in advance
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use

Quotes

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it. For smaller jobs, photographs and a description will do.

Cost factors for mastic joints

These are the things that shape the price:

  • The product specified
  • Location, for remote and island sites
  • How accessible the joints are
  • The total length or number of joints

Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: easy-to-reach joints are quicker than those that need equipment to get to. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.

Sending details for a quote

A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:

  • Whether the building will be occupied during the work
  • Your programme or deadline
  • Anything awkward about access or site hours
  • Specification clauses that apply

A handful of photographs and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form if you’d rather talk the job through.

Estate-wide resealing programmes

Housing associations and agents often manage many similar blocks. We quote building by building and work through them in turn.

Commercial and mixed-use buildings

Where retail and residential share a building, so phasing has to suit both. We plan around the site hours and access windows you give us.

Your questions answered

Is a smaller place like Finglesham outside your area?

No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.

Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Sandwich station?

Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. We work to your notice and access arrangements.

Can you take on resealing for a block portfolio?

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.

What paperwork can you provide?

We’re 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.

When is resealing likely to be due?

Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.

Do you work to architects’ specifications?

Yes. Include it with the drawings when you ask for a quote, and we’ll price the work to it.

When can the area be used after sealing?

That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.

Looking after the joints

After handover, these steps help:

  • Prioritise elevations facing the weather
  • Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
  • Protect low-level joints in entrances
  • Track which buildings were done and when

Keep records of when each building was resealed. That makes future programmes easier to plan and shows what was done.

Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. Doing them together saves going back again and again.

Why act early in Finglesham

Draughts round window perimeters cost occupiers comfort and the windows typically get the blame. In many cases, new perimeter sealant deals with it where the frames themselves are sound. For buildings around smaller places like Finglesham, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Resealing early avoids that.

Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits.

Why choose Mastic Doctor in Finglesham

Looking after buildings in and around Finglesham

With the shore within about 3 miles, Finglesham counts as a coastal location. Blocks and commercial buildings facing the sea take the most weather on their window perimeters and external joints, and they deserve more regular inspection. Finglesham lies roughly 65 miles out from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.

If you look after a block within reach of Sandwich station, 2.4 miles to the north of Finglesham, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. Property owners at sites such as Birnham Farm Business Centre (to the north-west of Finglesham) can have mastic renewed between lettings. Site managers at schools like Northbourne Church of England Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.

Finglesham is about 2 miles north-west of Deal, in Kent. We cover commercial sites throughout Finglesham, whether it’s a single job or part of a planned programme. Finglesham is one of 931 places we cover in Kent for mastic joints. Our London page has more on work in that area (65 miles or so).

What sealant work can’t fix

Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:

  • Substrate edges that need repairing first
  • Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
  • Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints

If in doubt, call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

What we seal

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