Mastic sealing for Silver Street sites
Share the site address and what’s failing, and we’ll reply with a fixed quote or arrange a visit.
On site: what to expect
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before any cutting starts, with the work itself normally taking a few days for most blocks, with larger programmes scheduled building by building. Rural sites near Silver Street may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we will confirm the plan with the quote.
- A building-by-building inspection lists the failed joints.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- 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
- Move anything stored against the joints
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Advice
About our mastic sealing in Silver Street
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. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, communal kitchens and washrooms and external wall and movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are open joints in brickwork or panels and draughts at frames across a block. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, the work in Silver Street is the same: failed joints cut out, faces prepared and the right sealant laid to the right depth.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Silver Street tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

What sealant work can’t fix
Being straight saves everyone time. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Glazing that needs replacing
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
- Leaks from above rather than through a joint
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks

Quoting for work in Silver Street
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Phasing around occupants
- The product specified
- Removal of failed or old sealant
Cost follows what’s involved: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a quote.
Sending details for a quote
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Access details, including height
- Any dates the work must fit around
- The postcode of the building
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price the work to it. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
What we are called out for in Silver Street
Topping up old mastic is a common shortcut. New sealant won’t grip failed sealant and the repair soon fails.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- Water getting in round frames after rain
- Old repairs sealed over failed mastic
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
Owners of student blocks near Canterbury Christ Church University, 3.1 miles to the south of Silver Street, can schedule frame and external mastic for the summer vacation.
Questions to ask before you book
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- The named product and why it was chosen
- How the joint faces will be prepared and primed

Surface by surface
Window and door perimeters on blocks
On most blocks, the frame-to-wall joint is where failure shows first. Old perimeter mastic is removed, the joint prepared and new sealant tooled in.
Communal areas
Joints at low level in communal areas take knocks from bins, bikes and buggies and tend to fail first.
For owners and agents in Silver Street
Silver Street is about 36 miles from central London. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property. Silver Street is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside work still depends on dry joints, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building typically need attention first.
For agents with blocks near Sittingbourne station, 2.8 miles north-east of Silver Street, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. Churches, halls and community buildings such as Church of St John the Baptist are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.

Why deal with it now?
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows, and the complaints come with it. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Silver Street. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.

Silver Street: questions and answers
Can you quote for a block close to Sittingbourne station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Is Kent Science Park, near Silver Street, within your area?
Yes. We cover Silver Street and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Kent Science Park. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
How do you reach windows on upper floors?
It depends on the building. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so the fixed quote reflects it.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit usually takes one or more days per building, depending on the joint lengths and the access. For bigger or phased jobs, we’ll set out a timescale with the quote.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so damp, frosty or very cold days can stop external work. Inside work is seldom held up.
