Common questions from Frindsbury clients
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Strood station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we’ll quote and plan to suit.
Is Frindsbury off your patch?
Not at all. Frindsbury is within our area. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photos up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
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.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
We talk through access for each building when we quote. Tell us the building height and any access already in place and we’ll confirm the approach in the quote.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
We can. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order, and the programme can start with the worst.
Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Frindsbury
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, balcony and threshold joints and window and door perimeters on blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are leaks at window and door perimeters and damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors. Whoever orders the work in Frindsbury, the brief is normally the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Older buildings and conversions around places like Frindsbury mix old masonry with newer frames. Perimeter joints need a sealant that suits both frame and masonry.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints

Advice
Mastic sealing in Frindsbury: the local picture
The sea is no more than about 3 miles from Frindsbury. On buildings near the shore, the side facing the weather normally needs its mastic renewed first; plan inspections around that. Central London is about 27 miles from Frindsbury. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.
For a school such as English Martyrs' Catholic Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. Buildings close to stations like Strood station (to the south-west of Frindsbury) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound. Student accommodation around universities such as University of Kent - Medway Campus (to the east of Frindsbury) is normally managed block by block, which suits a planned mastic programme.

When to bring in a specialist
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
How the job changes by surface
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. Colours are confirmed for the product used.
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Priority order can follow condition, complaints or your maintenance plan. Quotes can be per block or for the full programme.
Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. We suggest:
- Ask residents or tenants to report leaks and draughts early
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges, and note the building and elevation.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. A programme can start with the worst buildings so spending is spread.
