About our mastic sealing in Great Mongeham
Older blocks and commercial buildings can have mastic that contains 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. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. Most enquiries involve communal area joints that look neglected and brittle perimeter mastic across a building, across window and door perimeters on blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and external wall and movement joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Great Mongeham? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Around smaller places like Great Mongeham, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, 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.
Certain joints really need a specialist: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
What happens if it’s left?
Failed perimeter mastic lets cold air in around frames, and they often blame the windows. Resealing the perimeters is often the simpler fix when the frames themselves are sound. Halls, stores and units around places like Great Mongeham may not be checked every day, so a failed joint can leak for a while before anyone sees it. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site requirements come into it too.

For owners and agents with buildings near the sea, exposed elevations are where frame mastic fails first, so it’s worth inspecting those sides more often. Central London is about 66 miles from Great Mongeham. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
Older community buildings, Church of St Martin among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. If you look after a block within reach of Walmer station, 1.2 miles to the south-east of Great Mongeham, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.

Your questions answered
Is Great Mongeham off your patch?
No. Places such as Great Mongeham are covered as much as the big towns. London and every South East county are within our area. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Our building in Great Mongeham is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
What do you charge?
It depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a quote.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
Access is discussed and agreed before the quote is fixed. Tell us the building height and any access already in place, and we’ll tell you how we’d approach it.
How many days will you need on site?
It depends on the scope, but the work usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we’ll give you a timescale with the quote.
Do you work for managing agents and housing associations?
Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. Buildings are scheduled in turn with dates agreed in advance.
From enquiry to sign-off
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. For work around Great Mongeham, we aim to finish in one visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- A fixed quote follows, split by block or building if that suits you.
- The sequence and the dates are fixed with you, giving you what you need to notify occupiers.
- We remove the old mastic completely and clean the joint faces back.
- Deep joints get backing rod, faces are primed if the manufacturer specifies it, then the joint is sealed and tooled.
- Finished joints are looked over and the 12-month guarantee confirmed.
Preparing the site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Let us know about inductions and permits
Getting a fixed quote
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
Advice
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Landlords with commercial portfolios have shopfronts, office entrances and external joints to look after. A planned programme suits multi-building portfolios.
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Using the same products throughout keeps the estate consistent.
Work for main contractors and building owners
When you manage a building on behalf of an owner, clear figures and clear communication matter. We quote a fixed sum, confirm the scope and walk the finished work with you or your representative, plus a 12-month guarantee.
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
When to call us in Great Mongeham
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and the sealant takes up that movement. A joint that was too narrow, too thin or the wrong product can’t cope and fails early.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
Historic properties like Walmer Castle, 2 miles south-east of Great Mongeham, show the age of some local stock, where frame mastic must suit soft brick or stone.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- Their public liability cover
- Is the sealant right for the movement and the substrate?
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
