Coloured sealant for Sholing sites
Tell us what needs sealing and where, with photos or drawings if you have them, and we’ll price it.
Should maintenance staff do it?
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: sealing over old material, sealing onto damp or dusty surfaces, or a product that can’t take the movement.
There’s also the paperwork. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and we will confirm the paperwork you need with the quote.
About our coloured sealant in Sholing
Coloured sealant is a finishing trade, so it usually comes late in a programme. We work around other trades and protect adjacent finishes, and snag any marks before we leave. A 12-month guarantee covers our workmanship. Site teams most often ask us about fit-outs with a sealant colour in the specification and dirty, discoloured joints in public areas, across natural stone and brick, hotel bathrooms and public areas and cladding panels. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Sholing? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
For a business in Sholing, it typically makes sense to put the sealant work into one visit: frontage, staff facilities and window perimeters on one booking. That keeps travel and disruption down.
Every job ends the same way: guaranteed. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and we explain exactly what that covers when we quote.

Our process
We schedule the visit to fit the site hours and access windows you give us. On the day, the work area is kept contained and tidy, and your contact hears from us before we move to the next area. What matters most for a job in Sholing is a clear list of what needs doing. You will then get a fixed price for the work.
- We confirm the joint type and the product it needs.
- Your RAL reference, sample or photo is checked against that product’s colours.
- The nearest colour is agreed, with a sample bead where needed.
- The existing bead comes out, then faces are cleaned and backed.
- We mask, seal and tool to a clean line.
- Masking comes off and the work is checked with you.
Preparing the site
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Make sure the joints can be reached
Getting a fixed quote
Every job follows the same four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step is to phone 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos with what you know.

Common problems we fix in Sholing
A coloured joint can fail like any other: it can crack, peel or harden with age and movement. We cut out and reseal in the agreed colour.
These are often picked up first by site or facilities staff:
- Old colour-matched joints lifting at the edges
- Hotel refurbishments with a set colour scheme
- Patch repairs in several different colours
- Smeared sealant on stone or joinery
Parks like Bitterne Business Centre (to the north-west of Sholing) see tenants come and go, and every move-in brings joints to seal.
Before you book anyone
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Will CSCS-carded applicators be on site?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
How the job changes by surface
Brick and masonry
Vertical movement joints run the full height of many brick walls. The right colour keeps them discreet without affecting the joint’s performance.
Hotel interiors
Phased resealing lets rooms go back into use quickly. We plan around your occupancy so rooms return to service in stages.
What sets the cost
A fixed quote reflects the actual work. It takes account of:
- The size and state of each joint
- Quantities, in metres or numbers
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Working within restricted access windows
No two sites price the same: the joint sizes, the specified product, access and working hours each have a bearing. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
What to include in your enquiry
A few photographs plus some basic facts will normally do. Please tell us:
- The postcode of the building
- Your programme or deadline
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- Drawings or a marked-up plan, if available

Shops, offices and hotels in and around Sholing
The sea is no more than about 2 miles from Sholing. Shopfronts, frames and external joints on commercial buildings there take wind-driven rain and, closer to the shore, salt in the air. Sea-facing elevations are typically where failed joints show first. Less than 3 miles from Sholing there are at least three named estates and business parks. Each new occupier on a park like these tends to refit, from reception to staff kitchen, often in a colour the occupier specifies.
In a retail centre such as Hedge End Retail Park, 2.2 miles to the north-east of Sholing, new tenants mean new shop fits, and the sealant at counters, frontages and floor edges is part of the finish. Premises within reach of Sholing station, 0.5 miles to the south-west of Sholing, often have busy frontages where joints are seen by everyone passing.

Questions about Sholing
Does your area include sites such as Bitterne Business Centre, near Sholing?
Yes. We cover Sholing and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Bitterne Business Centre. A few photographs and the unit address let us price the work.
Can being near the sea in Sholing affect the sealant we need?
It can. Coastal exposure works external joints harder than inland weather. We check the specified product suits the exposure and pay close attention to preparation.
Does a coloured sealant perform differently from a standard one?
Performance comes from the sealant type and the installation. We choose the right product for the joint first and then pick from its colour range with the same preparation and backing.
Can you work while the building is occupied?
Yes, as long as we plan it. Tell us your site hours and access windows and we’ll plan around them.
Is Sholing in your area?
Yes. Sholing is in our area and the rest of Southampton, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. For a quote, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Each site asks for different documents, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Do you seal on top of existing sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
