Our process
We bring the products specified for the job, along with primers and backing rod. Joint faces are cleaned back to sound, dry surfaces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and the sealant is tooled off neatly. For work around Henham, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Each area is assessed for joint width, arris damage and the wheels that cross it.
- A fixed quote follows, listing the treatment for each area and the order of work.
- Old filler, debris and contamination are cut or routed out back to clean concrete.
- We vacuum each run and prime it if the chosen product requires a primer.
- The chosen product is placed to its specified depth and trimmed level with the floor.
- The area is handed back once it has cured enough to take traffic.
Getting the site ready
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Warn occupants and staff about the work

Questions we’re asked in Henham
Is Henham off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Henham, such as Golds Nursery Business Park?
Yes. We cover Henham and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Golds Nursery Business Park. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Can you send site paperwork?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Do you offer coloured sealant?
In many cases, yes. Many products come in a range of standard colours, and matching to RAL references or surrounding finishes is often possible. We’ll confirm the colours available for the specified product.
What if there’s asbestos in the old mastic?
The duty to manage asbestos sits with the building’s dutyholder, so we will ask for the register before work on an older building. If anything suspect turns up, we stop until it’s tested.
Do you have public liability insurance?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Different surfaces, different methods
Construction joints
Some construction joints have steel edge protection, others are plain concrete. If the edges look unsound, we will say so before any filling is done.
Flexible floor sealants
Polyurethane floor sealants are available in a range of colours, and we will confirm what the specified product offers.
Owners, agents and contractors
Facilities managers want contractors who arrive with the paperwork sorted. Tell us what site paperwork you need, such as RAMS, an insurance certificate or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
Hospitality, education, healthcare, office and retail clients come to us directly as well. The work is planned around how the building runs, so the building keeps working while we do.
Leave it or put it right?
Dirt and spillage gather in open joints, out of reach of the floor cleaner. Where the floor is on show or needs to be kept clean, that is a problem. Filled joints are far simpler to keep clean. Older rural buildings around Henham move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. A sealant with the right movement capability, correctly sized, lasts far better.
Cost follows what’s involved: removing old material, preparing the joints, the product, the access and how the work is phased. Call for a quote and we’ll explain how it’s made up.

Common problems we fix in Henham
Unfilled joints soon pack with grit, shrink-wrap scraps and pallet splinters. That debris is hard and levers at the edges as wheels pass so the arrises break sooner.
Typical triggers for a call:
- Old filler gone hard, cracked or loose
- Unfilled floor joints collecting dirt and grit
- Loading bay joints breaking down
- Untidy open joints in a retail unit
At places like Williams Field Business Centre, 2.2 miles to the south-east of Henham, joints are sealed a section at a time so operations carry on.
What your quote should include
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- Whether primer will be used where the manufacturer specifies it
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
Warehouse floors and decks around Henham
Henham is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External slab and deck joints still need a dry, clean joint to seal, while winter salting gets into any joint left open. Less than 3 miles from Henham there are at least three named estates and business parks. Their warehouses, yards and car parks are exactly where joints take the most punishment.
For an estate such as Herts and Essex Hospital (5.6 miles south-west of Henham), the joints in ramps, decks and long building elevations all need attention over time. For buildings at a park such as Golds Nursery Business Park, 1.2 miles to the south-west of Henham, brick and panel movement joints are easy to forget until one leaks.

When to bring in a specialist
For most general trades, sealant is a sideline. A specialist brings correct preparation, depth control with backing rod and a product suited to that particular joint.
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
