Commercial sealant contractors in ME13: how it works
We have applied sealant on commercial sites for over 20 years: we are CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member, our applicators hold CSCS cards, and we carry five million pounds of public liability insurance. If your site needs RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, say so and we’ll confirm with the quote. We work on movement joints in walls and floors, washrooms and tea points and external facade joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are expansion joints with the sealant torn out and weathered facade sealant that no longer flexes.
At the end of each section, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out.
- First, details come to us: photos, drawings or a schedule of the areas, and a site visit is booked where it helps.
- The failure is diagnosed and a fixed quote issued for the work agreed.
- Before anything is cut out, we agree access, timings and sequence.
- Failed sealant is cut out and each joint cleaned back to sound, dry faces.
- Backing and primer go in where needed, then the chosen sealant is applied and tooled.
- Each area is inspected, signed off and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
What affects the price in ME13
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Why choose Mastic Doctor
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- Colour agreed before work starts
- Coloured sealants to suit the setting, where available
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible

What’s near Faversham
In Faversham, that means premises near Queen Elizabeth's Grammar School, Mechanics Arms and Ethelbert Road Primary School, among other places. Other local landmarks include Oare Meadow (1.1 miles north) and Church of St Mary Magdalene (less than half a mile north-west). Faversham has its own railway station: Faversham station. Well-known places in the area include Newnham Castle (4.2 miles south-west).
Shops, offices and hotels in ME13
In ME13, much commercial sealant work follows refits in shops, offices and hotels in places such as Faversham, Davington and Preston. Where the joint is on show, a colour that suits the finish is part of the job.
The South East has large numbers of business parks and industrial estates, especially around the motorway corridors, and we cover ME13 along with the rest of the region. Parts of ME13 lie on or near the coast, where wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt air are harder on external joints. Product choice and joint preparation matter more there.
Faversham: Premises within reach of Faversham station, under half a mile south-east of Faversham, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing. For a hotel such as The Ship Hotel (under half a mile east of Faversham), the colour of a joint at the bar or the bath matters to the look of the room.
Owners, agents and contractors
Building owners and managing agents use us on sealant work across single buildings or whole portfolios around ME13. One quote can cover more than one site, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
Why act early?
Sealant is often treated as an afterthought by the trade that fitted the element. Choosing the product, setting the depth and preparing the faces are what a specialist brings, the three things that decide how long a joint lasts. You notice the difference years later, not on the day.
What your quote should include
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Whether their applicators hold CSCS cards
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
- How joint depth will be controlled
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: fire-rated seals that must follow a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints among them. Getting these wrong typically costs more in the end than doing them right.
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Keeping the joints sound
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Put external and wet-area joints on a regular inspection round
- Check joints after other trades have worked nearby
- Don’t let cleaning or traffic back on before the cure time is up
- Check the asbestos register before anyone disturbs old sealant in an older building
Keep an eye out for other trades after we’ve gone. When fittings are moved or cabling added, the sealant nearby is easily disturbed and the joint gets left open. If that happens, phone 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll price putting it right.
Once sealant fails in a movement joint, grit and debris get in. With nothing soft to close against, the materials either side take the load and start to break up. That turns a sealant job into something bigger.
Quoting for work in ME13
Quotes vary with the job. It mainly depends on:
- Removal of failed or old sealant
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Working within restricted access windows
- Joint width, depth and condition
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
What we need to price the job
Good information means a firmer quote. When you get in touch, include:
- The postcode of the building
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Photos of the joints, close up and from further back
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and we’ll put a fixed quote together. To get it moving, ring 01277 525 020 or email the details over.
Your questions answered
Which site documents can you send us?
Send your site requirements with the enquiry, and the paperwork is confirmed with the quote. From you, we will need the asbestos information for older buildings and any site rules.
Can areas stay open during the work?
It’s normal for us to work in occupied buildings. Only the area being sealed is closed, and the sequence is agreed in advance, until its cure time has passed.
How long do sealant joints last?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, because life depends on how much the joint moves, how exposed it is and how it’s cleaned and used. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Are your applicators CSCS-carded?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, tell us and we will confirm them with the quote.
Is ME13 in your area?
Yes. We cover ME13, and you can ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos to get started.
Do you take on multi-site sealant work?
Yes, across South East England, Greater London and all of Scotland. Each site gets the same process and a single contact.
Who decides which product is used?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
