How the job changes by surface
Commercial and mixed-use buildings
Tenants in commercial buildings need to keep trading so the work is phased.
Planned maintenance
Mastic wears out like any building component; how fast comes down to movement, weather, UV and the product. Regular inspection is the best way to plan resealing.
Mastic sealing in Petham, done properly
Our clients include managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios. Many prefer a planned programme to one-off visits, with each block quoted and scheduled in turn. If you have repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings and a mix of products and colours from past repairs, we can help, whatever the surface. A specialist sealant contractor works differently from a general builder: on jobs in Petham, preparation and product choice get the time they need.
Rural conversions near places like Petham 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.
Our workmanship is guaranteed for 12 months, wherever the site is. If our installation lets you down in that time, we return and fix it.

Common problems we fix in Petham
Sunlight and weather break mastic down over time. It stiffens, stops stretching and cracks, especially on south and west faces.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- Cracked, hardened mastic round windows on a block
- Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
If you manage student housing near a university such as University of the Creative Arts (4 miles north-east of Petham), the summer turnaround is the time for mastic.

Block-wide mastic in Petham
Petham lies roughly 53 miles out from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres. Petham is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first.
If you are responsible for a building such as Church of All Saints, frame and door mastic needs the same attention as any other property. Property owners at sites such as Stour Valley Business Park, 2.7 miles to the north of Petham, can have mastic renewed between lettings.

Our process
In a busy building, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed before the next one starts. Rural sites near Petham may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- First comes a look at the joints and, for older buildings, the asbestos records.
- A fixed quote covers the joints, products and order of work.
- Failed mastic is removed completely.
- Joint faces are cleaned, backed and resealed.
- We finish each building before moving to the next.
Before we start on site
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Flag any permit to work we will need
Getting a fixed quote
Quotes are fixed against the scope you send, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To ask for one, ring 01277 525 020 or email us.
Advice
Quoting for work in Petham
What shapes the price:
- How much there is to seal
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Phasing around occupants
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Sending details for a quote
There’s no need for a formal survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- The type of building and who uses it
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Send them through the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to discuss it first.
Looking after the joints
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- List the paperwork your organisation requires when you send details
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
Add mastic joints to your cyclical inspections. Check for splits, open joints, brittle mastic and lifting edges, and note the building and elevation.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. We can quote buildings in priority order and work down the list.

How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.

Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
Occupiers stay in the building throughout. If any flats or units need access, we will tell you in advance so it can be arranged.
