Mastic sealing in Hextable

We work for building owners, landlords with commercial or block portfolios, managing agents and housing associations. Many prefer a planned programme to one-off visits, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. Site teams most often ask us about mastic failing across several blocks on an estate and draughts at frames across a block, on communal entrances and stairwells, external wall and movement joints and balcony and threshold joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Hextable? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.

For landlords and associations with stock in and around Hextable, grouping buildings into one visit saves travel. Send the addresses and photos and we’ll quote for all of them together.

Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. The promise is simple: if our work fails within that year, we put it right.

When to call us in Hextable

Buildings move with temperature and moisture, 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.

Things that normally lead to an enquiry:

  • Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
  • Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
  • The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
  • A mix of products and colours from past repairs

For agents with blocks near Swanley station (1.5 miles south-west of Hextable), a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.

Questions about Hextable

Can you work in a care home near Hextable with residents in?

Yes. Care settings are planned area by area, at times agreed with the home. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.

Can you quote for a block close to Swanley 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 will quote and plan to suit.

What paperwork can you provide?

Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We hold CHAS accreditation and Constructionline membership.

What guarantee do you give on resealing?

Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.

Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?

No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.

Do you work in Hextable?

Yes. Hextable is in our area and the rest of Kent, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price the work to it.

Our process

In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. For a job in Hextable, the main thing is a clear picture of the work. You’ll then get a fixed price for the work.

  1. A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
  2. You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
  3. We agree the programme and dates with you.
  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.

Preparing the site

  • Flag any permit to work we will need
  • Move anything stored against the joints
  • Tell us which areas need to stay in use

When to bring in a specialist

Some joints are best left to specialists: for example fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong normally costs more in the end than doing them right.

The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.

Surface by surface

Planned maintenance

How long mastic lasts depends on exposure, movement and the product used. Inspecting joints regularly keeps programmes on track.

Window and door perimeters on blocks

Blocks have a mix of frame materials, so the grade we pick has to bond to frame and wall alike. Colours are confirmed for the product used.

Why deal with it now?

Adding sealant to cyclical maintenance is an easy win. Waiting until leaks appear means working under pressure and less choice about when. A failed joint lets water into a building whatever its size. Catching it early means a reseal rather than repairs.

The price depends on the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.
