How we handle mastic sealing in Maypole
Across Maypole and the rest of Kent, we work the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. A list of buildings, a few photos and approximate joint numbers are enough for a quick quote or we can visit. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, balcony and threshold joints and external wall and movement joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio and damp patches beside frames. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Maypole? We’ve been sealing commercial buildings since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
Rural conversions near places like Maypole often set modern frames into older stone, flint or brick. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

What the job involves on each surface
Communal areas
Communal entrances, stairwells and corridors have joints at door frames, screens, skirting and floor edges. Fresh joints make shared areas look looked after.
Tenement and older buildings
Stone needs a neutral-cure product, so we pick a grade that won’t mark it.
What we are called out for in Maypole
The edges of the material itself sometimes break away for instance where render or brick edges crumble. We’ll tell you if the joint edges need repairing before resealing.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- Damp patches beside frames
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
For a school such as Hoath Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.
Before you book anyone

- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
Honest limits
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over and we will tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Balcony and threshold joints
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
Keeping the joints sound
For the best life from the joints:
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Group repairs into a planned programme
If a joint we sealed fails within 12 months, tell us and we will look at it. Beyond that, routine checks spot the next round of repairs.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Resealing when cracking first shows avoids water damage and the complaints that come with it.
How the quote is worked out
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- Location, for remote and island sites
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Whether the work must be split into stages
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Any specification or named product
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
For a fixed quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings, telling us the site location and the nature of the job. Our quote form is another easy route.
FAQs: Maypole
We manage a building near Herne Bay station. Can you help?
Yes, we work for agents, landlords and housing associations with blocks of every size. Give us the building’s details and say how residents are notified, and we will quote and plan to suit.
Does the sea air around Maypole change the choice of sealant?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We choose the product for the exposure, prime where the manufacturer requires it and size the joint for its movement.
When is resealing likely to be due?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Treat them as maintenance items and inspect them regularly.
What paperwork can you provide?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. For specific documents, 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?
The product and site conditions decide that. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, and we confirm it before leaving site.
What guarantee do you give on resealing?
Our workmanship carries a 12-month guarantee, backed by public liability insurance.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order, and the programme can start with the worst.
Frames, entrances and external joints in Maypole
With the shore within about 3 miles, Maypole counts as a coastal location. For owners and agents with buildings near the sea, exposed elevations are where frame mastic fails first, so it’s worth inspecting those sides more often. Rainfall across the South East, Maypole included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.
If you look after a block within reach of Herne Bay station (2.6 miles north-west of Maypole), frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. If you are responsible for a building such as Church of the Holy Cross, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property.
