About our facade sealing in Thundridge
Managing agents and owners in Thundridge ask us to, we reseal perimeters across whole elevations or a handful of problem windows. Either way, the method is the same: cut out, clean, back, prime where needed and seal. Each job carries our 12-month guarantee. Most enquiries involve perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, stone and brick facade joints and coping and flashing joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Thundridge? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
For a site near Thundridge, the mastic visit is planned so the right sealants, primers and backing rod are on hand. Send drawings or photographs and the programme and we will quote to suit.
Building owners and contractors get the same cover: twelve months on the work we carried out. It doesn’t extend to damage, faults in the building or work by others, and we are upfront about that.

Questions we’re asked in Thundridge
Can you work at a site such as Thundridge Business Park, by Thundridge?
Yes. Our area takes in Thundridge and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Thundridge Business Park included. To start, just call 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Hertford County Hospital, something you do?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. The estates team’s permit system and infection-control rules come first, and the work is planned around them.
Can you work on upper floors?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. When you call the office on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form, describe the access, and we’ll agree the approach together.
How soon can the area be used again?
We will confirm how long the chosen product needs to cure, and flag anything to keep off until it has cured.
Can you work in cold or wet weather?
Year-round work is possible as long as joints are dry and temperatures suit the product. Cold, damp mornings can delay a start.
How do I request a quote?
The quote form is the simplest route, though you can also call the office on 01277 525 020 or email us. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
Can you look at water coming in around a frame?
Yes. Photos are often enough to start, followed by a visit if needed. Many frame leaks are sealant failures, though not all, and we will be honest about which it is.

When something else is needed
Our job is the joint, not everything around it. Sealant alone won’t deal with:
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
If you’re not sure, just phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.
What we seal
- Cladding panel joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Shopfront frames
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Coping and flashing joints
Mastic packages on Thundridge sites
Thundridge sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so the external programme keeps a little slack. A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Thundridge. When hotels extend or refit, the work is normally squeezed between peak periods, mastic included.
When a school such as Thundridge Church of England Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. For contractors at a college like Hertford College: Ware Campus, 1.9 miles to the south of Thundridge, perimeters and internal sealant are timed for the holidays. For a contractor at a hotel such as The Feathers Hotel, which lies north of Thundridge, the mastic often has to be finished before a reopening date.
Thundridge is about 1 mile north of Ware, in Hertfordshire. Thundridge sits inside our coverage and the rest of Hertfordshire, with the same fixed quotes and 12-month guarantee as everywhere else.

Surface by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Where framed systems such as shopfronts meet the building structure, there is a perimeter joint to seal. 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. Where the issue isn’t the sealant, we say so.
Leave it or put it right?
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing now costs less than repairing interiors later. Around Thundridge, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Send photos of each area and we’ll quote for the lot.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, what has to come out first and how the joints are reached. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.

Doing it in-house
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
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. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
On site: what to expect
We begin with a short walk round with whoever looks after the building, 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 Thundridge are typically planned as a single visit, so photographs and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- The existing bead comes out in full.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
What we need from you
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Let building users know which areas are affected
Ask for a quote
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
