About our facade sealing in Hill Green
Managing agents and owners in Hill Green ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. The approach doesn’t change with the size: old sealant out, faces cleaned, depth set and a new bead tooled in. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. We work on coping and flashing joints, shopfront frames and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are facade joints cracked through the middle and discoloured or dirty facade joints. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Hill Green it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
Around smaller places like Hill Green, building work typically means conversions of farm buildings, a few new houses or an extension to a hall or school. Perimeters, facade joints and internal sealant all need doing properly, however small the scheme.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

Surface by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. Our work is that perimeter joint.
Window and door perimeters
Aluminium, PVC-U and timber frames each have their own preparation needs. We clean and prime to the sealant maker’s guidance for each surface.

Common questions from Hill Green clients
Is Hill Green off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Saffron Walden Community Hospital?
Yes, provided the work is planned with the site’s estates team. Each area is agreed with the ward or department and the estates team in advance.
Is colour matching possible?
Often, yes. Sealants are made in a wide range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or nearby finishes is commonly requested. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
When can you be on site?
Give us your site hours and any access windows in your enquiry, and we will plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
How much does the work cost?
It depends on the job: the volume of work, the access, the specified product and how it’s phased. Call for a fixed quote.
Can you work on upper floors?
Access is planned with you before we quote. Let us know what access is in place or planned, and we will price the work around it.
Commercial clients in Hill Green
Planned maintenance programmes are welcome: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Sites in Hill Green can sit alongside others in a wider programme.
Blocks and communal areas make up much of the work for housing associations and agents. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
On site: what to expect
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, agreeing which joints are in scope, where to start and what must stay open. Then we strip out anything that has failed, prepare every joint and seal it. Jobs in and around smaller places like Hill Green are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- Product choice follows the joint’s movement and substrate.
- The existing bead comes out in full and both faces cleaned back.
- Primer is applied where the maker specifies it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- We go over the completed work with you before leaving.
Getting the site ready
- Let building users know which areas are affected
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Advice
What happens if it’s left?
The longer a failed joint is left, the more the substrate suffers: edges get wet, render and timber deteriorate and frames can move. Acting at the first sign of splitting keeps the fix simple. Around Hill Green, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Pricing facade joints depends on quantities, condition and access, and any specification that applies. Ask us for a fixed quote.

What we can’t put right
We seal joints; we don’t mend everything behind them. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Leaks from roofs, gutters or failed flashings rather than sealant joints
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
If you are not sure, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the price in Hill Green
Each job is priced on its own details. The main factors are:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- Joint width, depth and condition
- Travel to remote or island sites
- Specialist products, such as fire-rated or hygienic sealants
There’s no price list, because the scope varies so much from one building to the next. Call for a quote and we’ll price your job on its own details.
What we need to price the job
It doesn’t need to be a full survey. A few details are enough to get going:
- Any dates the work must fit around
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed: that’s how every job runs. The first step is to give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with what you know.
New build and refits around Hill Green
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. Hill Green lies roughly 35 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, which keeps mastic packages in demand.
Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Funstons Commercial Centre (to the south-west of Hill Green) brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme. Historic houses such as Audley End House, 4.2 miles north-east of Hill Green, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products. School extensions, at buildings such as Clavering Primary School, usually run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
