Mastic sealing for commercial buildings in Butt's Green
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. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. We work on balcony and threshold joints, external wall and movement joints and communal kitchens and washrooms, and the usual reasons a site gets in touch are water getting in round frames after rain and brittle perimeter mastic across a building. Whether you call it commercial sealant work, mastic application or joint sealing, in Butt's Green it comes down to the same thing: the right product in a properly prepared joint.
For owners with a single building near Butt's Green, we plan to finish in one visit where possible. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we will give a fixed quote.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Why deal with it now?
Resealing ahead of leaks keeps it to a maintenance task. Once water has tracked in, the repair list grows, and the complaints come with it. Older rural buildings around Butt's Green 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.
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.

Honest limits
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we’re upfront when that’s the case. These need a different solution:
- Water coming in from the roof or rainwater goods
- Cracked or crumbling render, brick or stone at the joint edges (we’ll tell you if so)
- Failed window or door frames, which need a window contractor
If you’re not sure, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- External wall and movement joints
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
After the work
A few simple habits keep the new joints working:
- Share your contractor requirements early
- Reduce knocks to communal area joints
- Include mastic in your cyclical inspections
- Plan resealing building by building rather than complaint by complaint
Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. That makes future programmes easier to plan and shows what was done.
Joints on a building age together, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. A planned reseal saves repeated visits.
