What we are called out for in Buckland
Topping up old mastic is a common shortcut. New sealant won’t grip failed sealant, so these repairs rarely last.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- Brittle perimeter mastic across a building
- The same joint failures repeated across a portfolio
- No planned programme for sealant
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
Trustees of buildings like Church of All Saints can bring frame and external mastic into a planned maintenance list.

Mastic sealing in Buckland
Older blocks and commercial buildings can have mastic that contains asbestos. Before we disturb it, we ask to see the asbestos register or survey, and work stops for testing if there’s any doubt. Removing asbestos-containing material isn’t something we do. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, shopfronts below residential blocks and external wall and movement joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are worn sealant at communal door frames and brittle perimeter mastic across a building. Sealant applicators who only do sealant are a different proposition from a general trade with a gun in the van: in Buckland, that means joint design, primers and backing rod as standard.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Buckland tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Frame and wall-joint mastic on all of them ages and hardens.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. Should something we installed fail, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will come back to it.

What else we do in Buckland
What sets the cost
Before we quote, we look at:
- The product specified
- The size and state of each joint
- Any access equipment needed
- Phasing around occupants
Access can matter as much as the joints themselves: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Details that help us quote
Whether it’s one area or a whole building, these details speed things up:
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Clear photographs of the problem areas
- Whether the building will be occupied during the work
For a fixed quote, call 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings. Our quote form is another easy route.
Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
If you are not sure, just ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- External wall and movement joints
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
From enquiry to sign-off
Our CSCS-carded applicators arrive with the sealants, primers and backing rod the job calls for. Any old material is cut back to clean, sound faces, the manufacturer’s primer is applied where it’s called for, and each bead is tooled to a neat concave finish. Rural sites near Buckland may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Send that with the details and we’ll confirm the plan with the quote.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- We send a fixed quote that sets out the joints, the products and the programme.
- The programme is fixed with you, including dates you can pass on to residents or tenants.
- Old sealant is stripped and each face prepared back to firm material.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Completed joints are inspected and carry a 12-month workmanship guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Confirm the product named in the specification
- Arrange parking or a loading space

Advice
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but anything bigger is another matter: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Why it’s worth doing now in Buckland
Replacing mastic before water gets in is a planned job. After water has got in, there may be damp, damaged plaster or decoration to put right too and occupiers notice. Around Buckland, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Why choose Mastic Doctor in Buckland
- CHAS accredited
- Colours chosen to suit frames, cladding or finishes where possible
- Constructionline member for supplier checks
- Old sealant cut out, never sealed over

Buckland: questions and answers
Do you work for managing agents with blocks near Wendover station?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Buckland, such as Aesop Business Park?
Yes. We cover Buckland and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Aesop Business Park. To start, just ring 01277 525 020 or use the quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
We plan around people living or working in the building. We agree the programme so you can notify occupiers and communal access is kept open.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. We cut the old material out and clean the joint back before sealing, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
What paperwork can you provide?
Our credentials include CHAS, Constructionline and public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
Is mastic sealing guaranteed?
Every building we reseal has a 12-month guarantee. It covers our workmanship, not later building movement, damage or frame failures.
What if the old mastic contains asbestos?
Asbestos removal isn’t part of our work. Anything suspect is tested before we carry on, and the duty to manage asbestos sits with the dutyholder.
