Mastic sealing in Kippington, done properly
Treatment starts with a proper look: 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. If you have window mastic that has split and shrunk and worn sealant at communal door frames, we can put it right, on balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and communal kitchens and washrooms alike. Sealant contractors, mastic applicators, sealant specialists: whatever the job title on the order, in Kippington it comes down to the same thing: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Converted and older buildings in and around Kippington often put modern windows into old walls. Perimeter joints need a sealant that suits both frame and masonry.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will come back to it.

Work for main contractors and building owners
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor, on new build and refurbishment alike. We work to your programme, your specification and your site rules.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
Our process
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, primer goes on where the manufacturer specifies it, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Kippington need work too, visits can be combined. Tell us your site hours and we will plan around them.
- 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.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Tell us what induction or permit system the site runs
- Let building users know which areas are affected

Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Advice
Should maintenance staff do it?
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we’ll confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
Questions we’re asked in Kippington
Will you take on work at estates like Salters Heath Business Centre, close to Kippington?
Yes, sites like Salters Heath Business Centre are within our area, along with the rest of Kippington. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
Is Kippington too small for you to travel to?
Not at all. Kippington is within our area. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. Send it with your enquiry, and the quote will be based on it.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, and we confirm it before leaving site.
How long does a job like this take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You will have an expected duration with the quote.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
We can. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn starting wherever is most urgent.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It applies to our workmanship rather than damage or problems with the frames.
Maintenance after handover
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Share the asbestos register when you send details
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Track which buildings were done and when
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Knocks cause many early failures in communal areas.
Budgets are easier to plan when sealant is part of planned maintenance. A programme can start with the worst buildings so spending is spread.
What the job involves on each surface
Planned maintenance
We can work into your cyclical maintenance plan, building by building.
Tenement and older buildings
Stone needs a neutral-cure product and we choose accordingly.
What we can’t put right
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we point that out rather than sealing over them:
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
If in doubt, call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What else we do in Kippington
Mastic sealing around Kippington: how the place shapes the job
Kippington sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first. At about 20 miles from central London, Kippington is within reach of the capital. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.
With historic buildings such as Knole House, 1.2 miles east of Kippington, in the wider area, owners of older properties around Kippington should expect mastic to need a product that suits old masonry. If you own or manage units on a site such as Salters Heath Business Centre, which lies west of Kippington, failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. If your remit includes a building such as St Thomas' Catholic Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.
