Your questions answered
Is a smaller place like Sacombe Green outside your area?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our area covers London and the South East counties. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Will you take on work at estates like Thundridge Business Park, close to Sacombe Green?
Yes. Our area takes in Sacombe Green and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Thundridge Business Park included. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Do we need an asbestos check before resealing?
It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder, so ask for it before we start. If asbestos is suspected, work stops until it is tested.
Is it okay to overlay old mastic?
No. New sealant won’t hold on old sealant, so the old bead is cut away and the joint cleaned back to sound material. Nothing else gives a bond that lasts.
Do you replace windows or glass?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
For external joints, yes. The joint has to be dry and within the product’s temperature range, so frost, rain or cold mornings can delay outside work. Internal work is rarely affected.
Facade sealing in Sacombe Green, done properly
External sealing depends on the weather more than most trades. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range, so frosty or damp mornings can hold work back. We plan for that and keep you updated. Site teams most often ask us about gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels and hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes, on window and door perimeters, cladding panel joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Searching for sealant specialists in Sacombe Green? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Construction in and around smaller places such as Sacombe 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.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Certain joints really need a specialist: 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.
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.
Why it’s worth doing now in Sacombe Green
A few metres of new sealant compare well with replacing ceilings, linings or damaged stock. Water through a failed joint rarely stays where it starts. Halls, stores and units around places like Sacombe Green may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.

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, not the framing or glazing itself.
Coping and flashing joints
Not every coping or flashing leak is a sealant problem. We tell you if the fix is a roofing or metalwork job rather than a reseal.
Work for main contractors and building owners
Hotels, schools, healthcare sites, offices and retail units book us directly too. We plan around the way the building is used, so guests, pupils, patients or staff are disturbed as little as possible.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Facade sealing in Sacombe Green: the local picture
Sacombe Green is about 25 miles from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Rainfall across the South East, Sacombe Green included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
New units and refits on sites such as Thundridge Business Park, 1.9 miles south-east of Sacombe Green, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. With historic properties like Aston Bury (4.4 miles west of Sacombe Green) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants. School extensions, at buildings such as Ralph Sadleir Middle School, usually run to the summer holidays, mastic included.
