Photos, a specification or a quick description of the joints is enough to start a fixed quote.
Mastic sealing in Hartfield, done properly
We work for building owners, landlords with commercial or block portfolios, managing agents and housing associations. A planned, building-by-building programme often works better than reacting to each complaint, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. If you have no planned programme for sealant and communal area joints that look neglected, we can put it right. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Hartfield, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For owners with a single building near Hartfield, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we will give a fixed quote.
We stand behind the joints we seal: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

When to call us in Hartfield
Previous repairs often sealed new mastic over old. New silicone has nothing to grip on old silicone and the repair soon fails.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
With historic buildings such as Bassetts Manor (to the north-west of Hartfield) in the wider area, owners of older properties around Hartfield should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.
What your quote should include
- Who will actually carry out the work
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
Surfaces we seal
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints

Questions we are asked in Hartfield
Will you take on a block within reach of Ashurst Kent station?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Can you quote for mastic across several buildings in and around Hartfield?
Yes. Planned programmes across a building, block or estate are a core part of this service. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
Do you cover Hartfield?
Yes. Hartfield falls within our area, and you can ring 01277 525 020 or email us to get started.
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 work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before disturbing it, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
How soon can the area be used again?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Redoing a failed joint normally costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
Blocks and managed buildings in Hartfield
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first. Hartfield lies roughly 29 miles out from central London. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.
If you look after a block within reach of Ashurst Kent station, which lies north-east of Hartfield, frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. Older community buildings, The Parish Church of St Mary among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.

- 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.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
