Mastic sealing near Speldhurst
Send drawings, photos or a joint schedule, or tell us about the site, and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Aftercare for building managers
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Keep a record of when each building was resealed
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Start inspections with the most exposed faces
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
Where a paintable product was specified, it can be painted after curing. Non-paintable silicone shouldn’t be painted over unless told otherwise.
Mastic fails gradually, then all at once in a wet spell. Acting at the first signs keeps it a straightforward reseal and saves internal repairs.
Mastic sealing in Speldhurst, done properly
For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Our applicators are CSCS-carded and we hold public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about open joints in brickwork or panels and worn sealant at communal door frames, on external wall and movement joints, communal entrances and stairwells and shopfronts below residential blocks. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Speldhurst, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
For buildings around smaller places like Speldhurst, we group work so one trip covers it. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.
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.

What we are called out for in Speldhurst
Many failed joints were sealed without backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. It can’t stretch properly and splits as the building moves.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- Open joints in brickwork or panels
- Damp patches beside frames
Trustees of buildings like Church of St Mary the Virgin can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.
What your quote should include
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- Their pre-qualification and accreditations
- Is depth set with backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints?
- Who will actually carry out the work
Should maintenance staff do it?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are easy to get wrong without experience.
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
What happens if it’s left?
Open external joints let water into walls and around frames. That can lead to damp, staining and damage to finishes and those cost far more to put right. Around Speldhurst, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well, along with the time of year for external work.
Why appoint us
