About our mastic sealing in Buntingford
For over 20 years we have resealed joints for owners, agents and landlords. Our applicators are CSCS-carded and we hold public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Buntingford carry our 12-month guarantee. If you have damp patches beside frames and window mastic that has split and shrunk, we can put it right, on shopfronts below residential blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and external wall and movement joints alike. Most enquiries from Buntingford 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.
For landlords and associations with stock in and around Buntingford, grouping buildings into one visit saves travel. One quote can cover a whole list of addresses.
The 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship: preparation, application and finish. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

On site: what to expect
The first thing on site is a walk round with your contact, 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. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Buntingford need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we’ll work within them.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- Joints are resealed and tooled.
- Each building is checked and signed off with the 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Send any specification or drawings in advance
- Explain the parking and delivery arrangements
- Move anything stored against the joints

What sets the cost
We price every job individually. The things that drive the figure:
- Distance, for remote addresses
- The size and state of each joint
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Access and working height
Pricing mastic joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access. Call for a quote.
Before you send an enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- The product your specification calls for
- What the building is and how it’s used
- Access details, including height
- The postcode of the building
Every quote starts with the facts: the joints involved, quantities, access and the product called for. Share whatever details you have and we’ll fill any gaps with a visit.
When to bring in a specialist
Using site staff can make sense for a small touch-up, but larger jobs are different: a specialist works through quantities efficiently, leaves a consistent finish and backs it with a 12-month guarantee.
Certain joints really need a specialist: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. Getting these wrong usually costs more in the end than doing them right.
Leave it or put it right?
Sealing over failed mastic looks tidy for a while. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Cutting out and resealing properly does it once. In a smaller place such as Buntingford, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.
Why us?
- Colour options checked against the specified product
- CHAS accredited contractor

Common questions from Buntingford clients
Can one quote cover a number of our buildings near Buntingford?
Yes. Portfolio-wide programmes are a regular request. Residents are given notice through you, and the work moves building by building.
Will you take on work at estates like Watermill Industrial Estate, close to Buntingford?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Buntingford, Watermill Industrial Estate among them, are all within reach. To start, just phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Who decides which product is used?
A specification, where there is one, decides it. Without one, the joint decides: its movement, its surfaces and what it has to cope with.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Will residents or tenants be disturbed?
The work is planned around occupiers. Dates and areas are agreed with you so residents or tenants can be told and communal access is kept open.
Do you supply RAMS and insurance details?
We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. For specific documents, tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.

Mastic sealing around Buntingford: how the place shapes the job
Buntingford is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first. At about 31 miles from central London, Buntingford is within reach of the capital. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres, and window and balcony mastic on them tends to age at the same rate.
Landlords with units on estates such as Watermill Industrial Estate (to the south of Buntingford) can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme. Older community buildings, Church of St Peter among them, often have frames of mixed ages whose mastic varies. Site managers at schools like Millfield First and Nursery School can fit frame mastic into the summer works.
