Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
What sets the cost
These are the things that shape the price:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The total length or number of joints
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Any access equipment needed
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Tell us how the joints are reached and call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Access details, including height
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- The site address and postcode
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so you know the figure before anyone is on site. To ask for one, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos.
Mastic sealing in Kingswood
In buildings from before 2000, some old mastics contain asbestos. We check the asbestos register or survey before any old sealant is cut out, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. We don’t remove asbestos-containing materials. We work on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and communal kitchens and washrooms, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block and leaks at window and door perimeters. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Kingswood it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
In and around smaller places like Kingswood, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
Every job is signed off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

What else we do in Kingswood
Diagnose, treat, sign off

The work itself typically takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access, and we clear our waste as we work. Jobs in and around smaller places like Kingswood are typically planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.

Advice
Kingswood: questions and answers
Is Kingswood too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. London and every South East county are within our area. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Will you take on work at estates like Roebuck Business Park, close to Kingswood?
Yes. We cover Kingswood and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Roebuck Business Park. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Occupiers stay in the building throughout. We flag any areas that need internal access well before the dates so you can arrange it with occupiers.
Can you quote from photographs?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. Where they aren’t, we arrange a site visit before quoting.
Can you send RAMS and CSCS details before starting?
We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
How much does the work cost?
We don’t publish prices, because every site is different. With photos or drawings, we can give you a fixed quote.
Signs you need mastic sealing in Kingswood
Occasionally the substrate fails, not the sealant, such as crumbling render, brick arrises or frame edges. If the edges are unsound, we say so before quoting the sealing.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
Landlords with units on estates such as Roebuck Business Park (2 miles north-east of Kingswood) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- What site paperwork they can supply
- Proof of insurance
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
Blocks and managed buildings in Kingswood
Kingswood sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. Kingswood lies roughly 37 miles out from central London. Around the capital’s commuter belt, managing agents look after many blocks close to stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
If you manage student housing near a university such as Canterbury Christ Church University, 3.4 miles north-east of Kingswood, the summer turnaround is the time for mastic. For agents with blocks near Harrietsham station, 2.1 miles north-east of Kingswood, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.
Kingswood is about 5 miles south-east of Maidstone, in Kent. We cover Kingswood and the rest of Kent, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. Across Kent, 931 places are covered, including Kingswood. For work in that direction, see our London page, about 37 miles away.

CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, we make supplier vetting simple. We’re fully insured, and our insurance certificate can go with the quote.
What sealant work can’t fix
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will say what we think before you book.
What we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Balcony and threshold joints
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
After the work
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Keep bins and bikes away from communal door frames
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Silicone typically can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it unless told otherwise.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. We can quote buildings in priority order and work down the list.
