Mastic sealing in Pembury
Different joints need different sealants. 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. We will confirm the colours available for the specified product. We work on external wall and movement joints, balcony and threshold joints and window and door perimeters on blocks, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are water getting in round frames after rain and window mastic that has split and shrunk. Most enquiries from Pembury start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we look at the rest while we are there and tell you what we find.
In a smaller place such as Pembury, landlords and agents tend to look after small blocks, flats over shops, sheltered housing and commercial units. Their window perimeters and external joints need renewing as the mastic ages.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Estate-wide resealing programmes
Priority order can follow condition, complaints or your maintenance plan. Quotes can be per block or for the full programme.
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Commercial buildings have mastic at shopfronts, entrances and external joints. A planned programme suits multi-building portfolios.
When it isn’t the sealant
Being straight saves everyone time. New sealant won’t cure:
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Masonry that has broken away beside the joint
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
General trades versus a specialist
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class, which is what makes a joint last.

What we’re called out for in Pembury
Communal entrances and corridors see a lot of wear, with joints near the floor and around doors suffering most. Cleaning products add to the wear.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Damp patches beside frames
- Worn sealant at communal door frames
- Occupiers reporting cold air round windows
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
If your remit includes a building such as Pembury School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays.

Planned mastic for Pembury portfolios
At about 31 miles from central London, Pembury is within reach of the capital. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate. Rainfall across the South East, Pembury included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building normally need attention first.
