Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Burgh Hill
Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Our applicators are CSCS-carded, and the work is backed by public liability insurance. Resealed mastic joints in Burgh Hill carry our 12-month guarantee. If you are dealing with mastic failing across several blocks on an estate and worn sealant at communal door frames, we can put it right, whatever the surface. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Burgh Hill first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
In and around smaller places like Burgh Hill, landlords and agents often look after small groups of housing association properties, converted farm buildings and community buildings. Mastic around frames and on external joints wears out in time, whatever the building.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. Sealant wears with time, and movement, weather, cleaning and use decide how fast, so we’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

Keeping the joints sound
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Log resealing dates block by block
Include sealant in planned building inspections. Watch for splits, open gaps, hard or chalky surfaces and mastic pulling away, and note the building and elevation.
The longer failed joints are left, the more likely the substrate edges break up. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing.
Why deal with it now?
A bead run over old mastic can look like a repair. It won’t grip the old sealant and soon comes away. Full removal and proper preparation is what lasts. Converted and older buildings near places like Burgh Hill tend to move, and aged sealant cracks. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
Every site prices differently: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. Send the details and a fixed figure follows.
Why appoint us
- CHAS accredited
- Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
- Work to your specification and the manufacturer’s guidance
- Colour agreed before work starts

Planned mastic for Burgh Hill portfolios
Burgh Hill sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Even so, frame mastic only goes on in dry, workable conditions, and elevations facing the sun and the prevailing weather are normally where frame mastic ages first. Burgh Hill lies roughly 41 miles out from central London. Within reach of London, blocks run by agents and associations are common around stations; their frame mastic often ages block-wide.
Blocks of flats and mixed-use buildings often cluster around stations such as Etchingham station (0.7 miles south-west of Burgh Hill) and their window and balcony mastic tends to age at the same rate across a building. For a school such as Etchingham Church of England Primary School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job. For owners of several units at places like Parsonage Farm Business Centre, 2.7 miles north-west of Burgh Hill, one programme can deal with frame and external mastic across the lot.
Burgh Hill is about 11 miles north-west of Hastings, in East Sussex. Looking for mastic sealing in Burgh Hill? We can help, as we do across East Sussex. Our East Sussex coverage takes in 308 places, from busy centres to rural villages. Brighton is covered too, around 28 miles from Burgh Hill.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
What you see is the finished bead, but most of the work is hidden. Correct depth, the right primer and a sealant matched to the movement are where general trades tend to cut corners.
Redoing a failed joint usually costs more than getting it right at the outset, because the whole bead must be removed and the faces cleaned back again. For that reason, many FMs and contractors use a sealant specialist from the outset.
Honest limits
We check first that sealant really is the fix. It isn’t the answer for:
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Misted or failed double-glazed units
- Old mastic suspected of containing asbestos, which must be tested and dealt with by a specialist first
Not sure which it is? You can ring 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.

How a job runs
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before the next one starts.

- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- You get a fixed quote, per block or for the whole programme.
- Dates and areas are agreed so occupiers can be told.
- Failed sealant is removed and the faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Getting the site ready
