About our construction mastic in Buntingford
Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Existing joints have to be stripped back to sound faces, because fresh sealant can’t key into cured silicone and the asbestos survey is checked first on older stock. New and existing joints then get the same preparation. We work on sanitary and kitchen joints, brick and block movement joints and cladding and panel joints, and the failures we’re asked to look at most are perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range and bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean. Facilities teams, main contractors and managing agents in Buntingford tend to want the same three things: a fixed quote, no surprises on site and a 12-month guarantee behind the result.
On a small site around Buntingford, the mastic is best done in the fewest visits we can manage. Let us know the key stages and we will time the work so nothing waits on us.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Will you come and look before quoting?
Many jobs can be quoted from photos, drawings or a joint schedule. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit.
Can you follow the specification on our project?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and any queries are raised before we start.

Related advice
General trades versus a specialist
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. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
Facades, frames and programmes in Buntingford
Central London is about 31 miles from Buntingford. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
Projects at schools like Millfield First and Nursery School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly.

The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote once you have the details.

What we are called out for in Buntingford
Dust is the enemy of adhesion on a construction site. Dust, film adhesive, damp and grease on the joint faces prevent a proper bond, so preparation matters as much here as on a reseal.
Common reasons buildings call us in:
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Perimeter gaps outside the sealant’s range
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
- Failed sealant in an existing building being refurbished
Units on estates such as Watermill Industrial Estate, less than half a mile south of Buntingford, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
What to look for in a quote
- How long is the guarantee, and what does it include?
- The named product and why it was chosen
- What level of public liability insurance do they hold?
- How joint depth will be controlled
What happens if it’s left?
Getting the mastic contractor involved early pays off. We can check joint widths, flag frames with gaps that won’t seal and confirm products against the specification, which avoids last-minute problems. Called in at the end, the same issues surface during handover. Small buildings around Buntingford suffer from failed joints as much as large ones. Early resealing avoids the damage that follows a leak.
Every site prices differently: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
