Mastic sealing in Kelvedon Hatch
We diagnose before we prescribe: which joints have failed, why, and whether sealant is the right answer. Old mastic is removed entirely, the faces prepared, primer used where the maker specifies it and new sealant tooled in and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. The enquiries we see most involve no planned programme for sealant and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, across shopfronts below residential blocks, external wall and movement joints and window and door perimeters on blocks. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: on jobs in Kelvedon Hatch, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
For buildings around smaller places like Kelvedon Hatch, we group work so one trip covers it. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, phone 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will come back to it.

How long does a typical visit take?

When to call us in Kelvedon Hatch
Frames, panels and masonry expand and contract through the year, and every joint has to stretch and squeeze with them. A joint that was too narrow, too thin or the wrong product can’t cope long before it should.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Patchy repairs in mismatched sealant
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- No planned programme for sealant
- Leaks at window and door perimeters
With historic buildings such as Ingatestone Hall, 5 miles east of Kelvedon Hatch, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Kelvedon Hatch should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry.
What your quote should include
- How they’ll work around occupants
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Their public liability cover
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:
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
If you’re not sure, just call 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal

After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Track which buildings were done and when
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
Keep records of when each building was resealed. That makes future programmes easier to plan and shows what was done.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. We can quote buildings in priority order so spending is spread.
For owners and agents in Kelvedon Hatch
Kelvedon Hatch lies roughly 20 miles out from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property; their frame mastic often ages block-wide. Rainfall across the South East, Kelvedon Hatch included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building normally need attention first.
If your remit includes a building such as Kelvedon Hatch Community Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Trustees of buildings like New Church of St Nicholas can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.

Should maintenance staff do it?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
