Mastic sealing in Bumble's Green
Before work starts, most agents and landlords want the documents in order. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote. We are a Constructionline member and CHAS accredited, and we carry public liability insurance. We work on communal entrances and stairwells, communal kitchens and washrooms and balcony and threshold joints, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors and water getting in round frames after rain. Most enquiries from Bumble's Green start with one failed joint and grow into a wider look at the building: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Owners and agents with buildings around smaller places such as Bumble's Green tend to manage small terraces of association properties, converted barns and commercial units. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
Work we carry out comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email us and we’ll arrange a return visit.

Common problems we fix in Bumble's Green
Sunlight and weather break mastic down over time. It stiffens, stops stretching and cracks most of all on the sunniest and most exposed elevations.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Movement joints with sealant missing
- Communal area joints that look neglected
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- Estate-wide sealant that is simply worn out
Property owners at sites such as Hilgrove Business Park, 1.8 miles to the north-west of Bumble's Green, can have mastic renewed between lettings.
Before you book anyone

- How joint depth will be controlled
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Which product they’ll use, and why it suits the joint
How the job changes by surface
External movement joints
Movement joints are cleaned out, backed with rod and resealed with a sealant of the right movement class.
Planned maintenance
Resealing can be scheduled alongside other planned works, building by building.
Mastic sealing in Bumble's Green: the local picture
Rainfall across the South East, Bumble's Green included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are typically where frame mastic ages first.

Buildings close to stations like Broxbourne station (2.6 miles north-west of Bumble's Green) are often flats over shops, with frame mastic to keep sound.

Our process
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before the next one starts. Rural sites near Bumble's Green may need directions, gate codes or a contact on site. Add it to your enquiry and we will build it into the plan.
- 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.
- Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
- Backing rod and primer go in where the joint and the product need them, then new sealant is applied and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Advice
After the work
Every sealant joint needs some looking after, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. Our advice:
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
- Make it easy for occupiers to report draughts
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
Keep records of when each building was resealed. That makes future programmes easier to plan and gives you a history.
Left open, joint edges in render, brick or frames can deteriorate. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing and the job grows.
