After the work
For the best life from the joints:
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Avoid piecemeal callouts where you can
Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges and record where they are.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. We can quote buildings in priority order so spending is spread.
Mastic sealing in Kingsnorth
There isn’t one mastic for every joint on a building. Window perimeters and external joints often take a low-modulus neutral-cure silicone, and MS polymer sealants stick well to many substrates and often take paint, and colours are confirmed for whichever product is used. We work on window and door perimeters on blocks, balcony and threshold joints and communal kitchens and washrooms, and what we’re called in for most is a mix of products and colours from past repairs and complaints coming in block by block. Whoever orders the work in Kingsnorth, the brief is normally the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
Rural conversions near places like Kingsnorth often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. The mastic needs to suit an irregular masonry face and the look of the building.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: preparation, application and finish. It doesn’t extend to damage, other trades’ later work or movement the joint was never designed to take.

Advice
Leave it or put it right?
A bead run over old mastic can look like a repair. It doesn’t bond and typically fails within a short time. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts. Converted and older buildings near places like Kingsnorth tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
What a job costs comes down to the quantity of joints, what has to come out first and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

Kingsnorth: questions and answers
Can you quote for a block close to Ashford International station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Is a smaller place like Kingsnorth outside your area?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, since fresh sealant will not bond reliably to aged material.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Residents and tenants carry on as normal. If any flats or units need access, we’ll tell you in advance so it can be arranged.
How long before the joints can be used?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Different surfaces, different methods
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Where retail and residential share a building, so phasing has to suit both. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Window and door perimeters on blocks
On most blocks, the frame-to-wall joint is where failure shows first. We remove the failed mastic, prepare the faces, add backing rod if the joint is deep and reseal.
What sealant work can’t fix
Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be one of these:
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Glazing that needs replacing
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Surfaces we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- External wall and movement joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
Cost factors for mastic joints
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Working within restricted access windows
- How much existing material needs removing
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
Details that help us quote
We can often quote from photos and a few details. It helps to include:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- The postcode of the building
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us.
