Should maintenance staff do it?

Redoing a failed joint typically costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.

Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

Different surfaces, different methods

Communal areas

Entrance doors, screens and corridor junctions in communal areas all have sealant joints. Tidy, sound joints keep them looking cared for.

External movement joints

Joint size and product are matched to the expected movement, often around 2:1 width to depth, as the manufacturer advises.

Blocks and managed buildings in Teynham Street

With the shore within about 2 miles, Teynham Street counts as a coastal location. Sea-facing elevations take driven rain and salt, and their mastic shows it before the sheltered sides do; plan inspections around that. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, while the elevations that take the most sun tend to show hardened mastic first.

Older buildings near Teynham Street, from historic houses such as Belmont House and Gardens (4.8 miles south of Teynham Street) to more modest stock, need compatible products when frames are resealed. Site managers at schools like Teynham Parochial Church of England Primary School can fit frame mastic into the summer works. Churches, halls and community buildings such as Church of St Mary are looked after by trustees and committees like any other owner, and their frames, doors and external joints need mastic renewed in time.
