Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
How we handle mastic sealing in Stocks Green
Different joints need different sealants. Low-modulus neutral-cure silicone suits many window perimeters and external movement joints, and MS polymer sealants stick well to many substrates and often take paint, and colours are confirmed for whichever product is used. If you have damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors and estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out, we can put it right, on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal kitchens and washrooms and communal entrances and stairwells alike. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Stocks Green it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller places like Stocks Green, older walls fitted with newer windows are a familiar sight. Perimeter mastic there has to grip an uneven face and suit the building’s character.
We stand behind the joints we seal with a 12-month guarantee. That covers our preparation and application.

Why act early in Stocks Green
Reacting to every complaint means sending someone out block by block. Planned resealing covers a whole building or estate in one go, under a single quote and a single programme. Around Stocks Green, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: 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.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Phasing around occupants
- The product specified
Whether it’s a single area or a whole estate, the same things set the price: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Sending details for a quote
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- Where the site is, with the postcode
- Specification clauses that apply
Every quote starts with the facts: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Share whatever details you have and we will fill any gaps with a visit.
Maintenance after handover
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
- Make mastic part of routine maintenance checks
- Have the asbestos survey to hand for older buildings
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Knocks cause many early failures in communal areas.
Joints on a building age together so a single failure is a sign to check the rest. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
Planned mastic for Stocks Green portfolios
At about 24 miles from central London, Stocks Green is within reach of the capital. Managed blocks of flats are a big part of commuter-belt property. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.
If you look after a block within reach of Hildenborough station (less than half a mile north-west of Stocks Green), frame and balcony mastic can be renewed on one programme. Student blocks close to universities like University of Kent - Tonbridge, 2.1 miles to the south-east of Stocks Green, are easiest to work on between tenancies. Older buildings near Stocks Green, from historic houses such as Penshurst Place, 3.2 miles south-west of Stocks Green, to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed.
Stocks Green is about 2 miles north-west of Tonbridge, in Kent. Across the TN11 postcode area, it works the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Stocks Green is one of 931 places we cover in Kent. Our London page has more on work in that area, about 24 miles away.

Common questions from Stocks Green clients
Will you price a mastic programme across our Stocks Green portfolio?
Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. We can phase the programme to suit your budgets and notice periods.
Can you quote for a block close to Hildenborough station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
We do. Managing agents, property factors in Scotland, housing associations and landlords with block or commercial portfolios are our main clients for this work and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
Do you guarantee the mastic work?
A 12-month guarantee covers our work. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Do you check for asbestos in old sealant?
In older buildings, old mastic can contain asbestos. We ask for the asbestos register or survey before work starts and suspect material is tested first.
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.
