Titmore Green: questions and answers

Can you take on a job at a hospital such as Lister Hospital?

Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.

Is a smaller place like Titmore Green outside your area?

No. Places such as Titmore Green are covered as much as the big towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.

Will you stick to the specified products?

We work to the specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance. Primers, backing and joint depth follow what the manufacturer sets out.

Can the building stay open while you work?

Yes, with some planning. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we will plan around them.

Can you work to our specification?

Yes. We follow the specification, along with the manufacturer’s installation guidance.

Can you send site paperwork?

Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.

What do you charge?

That depends on the job: quantities, access, the product and any phasing. Call for a fixed quote and we will price it properly.

Construction mastic for commercial buildings in Titmore Green

Refurbishment work needs a slightly different approach from new build. Old beads come out completely, as fresh silicone can’t grip old. After that, the joints are prepared and sealed to the specification. If you have old sealant on a refurbishment that needs stripping before new work and sealant knocked or painted over by other trades, we can put it right, on sanitary and kitchen joints, window and door perimeters and brick and block movement joints alike. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Titmore Green? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.

Construction in and around smaller places such as Titmore Green is often barn conversions, small groups of houses or extensions to halls and schools. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.

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.

Leave it or put it right?

A cheaper sealant can look like an easy saving on a large package. A failed joint in the defects period costs far more than the product difference. We price the specified product and will tell you plainly where an alternative would or wouldn’t work. Converted and older buildings near places like Titmore Green tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.

We don’t publish prices, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we will price your job on its own details.

Why us?

  • Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
  • Colours confirmed for the specified product
  • Fixed quotes based on photos, drawings or a visit
  • Public liability insurance in place

From enquiry to sign-off

Occupied buildings need a little choreography. The work area is signed and kept contained, keep walkways clear and work section by section so the rest of the building stays in use. If others near Titmore Green need work, visits can be combined. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.

  1. We walk the site or review drawings to understand the package.
  2. A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
  3. Paperwork is agreed and applicators are inducted on site.
  4. We seal plot by plot or floor by floor in line with the programme.
  5. Problems we find, such as oversized gaps, are raised straight away.
  6. The package is closed out, snags cleared and backed by our 12-month guarantee.

What we need from you

  • Point out parking and an unloading spot
  • Have the specification and drawings to hand
  • Point out any areas we must not close

Advice

What the job involves on each surface

Snagging before handover

Snags typically come from damage by following trades, missed joints or poor earlier work. We price snagging as part of the package or as a separate visit.

Internal decorators’ caulk

Acrylic caulk fills internal gaps around trims, boards and frames ahead of decorating. It’s for gaps that stay still and get painted, and we use a flexible sealant where there’s movement.

Should maintenance staff do it?

Putting right a botched joint often costs more than sealing it well at the start, since all of it has to come out and the faces be cleaned back again. That’s why many clients bring in a specialist from the beginning.

A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. 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.

When something else is needed

Part of a good diagnosis is knowing where sealant stops. You’ll hear from us if the cause turns out to be any of the following:

  • Frames fitted out of tolerance
  • Glazing units that are cracked or misted
  • Designing joint widths or choosing the specification (that sits with the designer)

If in doubt, phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will say what we think.

Where we work in Titmore Green

  • Window and door perimeters
  • Cladding and panel joints
  • Brick and block movement joints
  • Sanitary and kitchen joints
  • Floor and skirting junctions
  • Internal decorators’ caulk

Aftercare for building managers

Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:

  • Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
  • Brief the final clean team to avoid blades near sealant
  • Flag uneven or tapered frame gaps early
  • Plan external elevations with the weather in mind

The package carries our 12-month guarantee for workmanship. Damage by others isn’t a workmanship fault which is why protection after sealing matters.

Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. Clearing snags area by area spreads the work out.

Sites and facades in and around Titmore Green

Titmore Green is about 30 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to see a steady flow of new flats, offices and commercial schemes, which keeps mastic packages in demand. 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 we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.

Work at a hotel such as Redcoats Farmhouse Hotel, less than half a mile to the west of Titmore Green, tends to be programmed around bookings, mastic included. Further education sites such as North Hertfordshire College, less than half a mile to the east of Titmore Green, are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break. When a school such as Wymondley Junior Mixed and Infant School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays.

Titmore Green is about 2 miles south-east of Hitchin, in Hertfordshire. Our applicators travel to Titmore Green for work on mastic packages. Our Hertfordshire coverage takes in 371 places, from busy centres to rural villages. Our London page has more on work in that area (30 miles or so).
