About our mastic sealing in Skeete
For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and the work is backed by public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. If you have occupiers reporting cold air round windows and brittle perimeter mastic across a building, we can help. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Skeete first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Skeete tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
Whoever the client is, the cover is the same: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we’re upfront about that.

What happens if it’s left?
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. Older rural buildings around Skeete move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
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’ll put a fixed figure on it.

What we can’t put right
Before quoting, we check that sealant is the right answer. It won’t put right:
- Frames that are rotten, warped or broken
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we will tell you if so)
If you’re not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email us and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Communal entrances and stairwells
Owners, agents and contractors
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: working through a building or an estate in stages that fit your budget. Sites in Skeete can sit alongside others in a wider programme across Kent.
Frames, entrances and external joints in Skeete
Skeete is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. At about 56 miles from central London, Skeete is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
If your remit includes a building such as Stowting Church of England Primary School, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Older buildings near Skeete, from historic houses such as Westenhanger Castle (2.7 miles south-west of Skeete) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. If you look after a block within reach of Westenhanger station (2.5 miles south-west of Skeete), frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme.
Skeete is about 4 miles north of Hythe, in Kent. We cover Skeete, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. Skeete is one of 931 places we cover in Kent. Sites around London have their own page, about 56 miles away.

How the quote is worked out
Sealant work doesn’t have a standard rate, since sites vary so much. What we take into account:
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Working within restricted access windows
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
We don’t publish prices, since every building and every scope is different. For a fixed figure, call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.
Before you send an enquiry
However big the job, the same details help:
- The type of building and who uses it
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Specification clauses that apply
- Access details, including height
To get a fixed quote, phone 01277 525 020 or email us. You can also send details through our quote form.
Questions we’re asked in Skeete
Will you take on a block within reach of Westenhanger station?
Yes. Blocks of any size are within what we do. We work to your notice and access arrangements.
Is a smaller place like Skeete outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
How long does a typical visit take?
That varies with the scale of the job, but the work typically takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. For bigger or phased jobs, we will set out a timescale with the quote.
Can you reseal a whole block or estate?
Yes. We survey and price each building, then work through them in order starting wherever is most urgent.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
Yes, block and estate work is a core part of what we do. Buildings are scheduled in turn with dates agreed in advance.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, for external work. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Which sealant will you use?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
