Why act early in Sandway
Mixed repairs by different contractors leave a patchwork of products and colours. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish. Around Sandway, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
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.
Why us?
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- One phone line for London, the South East and Scotland
- CHAS accredited contractor

Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Sandway
On a residential block, the work happens around people’s lives. The sequence, the areas and the dates are settled with you so you can let residents know what is happening. Entrances and stairwells are kept in use throughout. If you have draughts at frames across a block and the same joint failures repeated across a portfolio, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Sandway, the brief is typically the same: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
In and around smaller places like Sandway, 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.
We sign every job 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.

How the job changes by surface
Estate-wide resealing programmes
Housing associations and agents often manage many similar blocks. Each block is priced and scheduled in order.
Tenement and older buildings
Older buildings, including Scotland’s sandstone tenements, have their own joint details. We look at the substrate before choosing a sealant.
What we can’t put right
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. On its own, sealant can’t deal with:
- Broken glass or failed sealed units
- Materials that need asbestos testing before work
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work in Sandway
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms

Your questions answered
Is Sandway too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Lenham station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
How do you choose the sealant?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Some mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts, and if it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
How long do sealant joints last?
There isn’t a single answer, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular inspection is the best way to catch problems early.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
We can. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn starting wherever is most urgent.
When can the area be used after sealing?
We’ll confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and sign any area that should be left alone.

Planned mastic for Sandway portfolios
Sandway sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. Central London is about 39 miles from Sandway. 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.
If you own or manage units on a site such as Roebuck Business Park (1.5 miles north-west of Sandway), failed mastic on frames, door surrounds and external joints can be dealt with unit by unit. Buildings close to stations like Lenham station, 0.5 miles north-east of Sandway, are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound. Older community buildings, St Mary's Church among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies.
Sandway is about 8 miles east of Maidstone, in Kent. Sandway sits inside our coverage and the rest of Kent, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else. 931 places across Kent fall within our area, Sandway among them. London is covered too, some 39 miles away.

What sets the cost
What shapes the price:
- Access and working height
- The size and state of each joint
- How much there is to seal
- Location, for remote and island sites
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
