Your questions answered
Do you cover business parks and estates near Canada, such as Giles Lane Industrial Estate?
Yes. Our area takes in Canada and its surroundings, with estates and business parks such as Giles Lane Industrial Estate included. A few photos and the unit address let us price the work.
Is Canada too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so tell us what you need and we’ll confirm it when we quote.
What happens if the weather stops external sealing?
External sealing goes ahead only with a dry joint inside the product’s temperature range. Wet or cold joints cause adhesion problems so it’s better to wait.
Can staff carry on working while you are here?
Yes, with some planning. We agree a sequence with your contact so just one area at a time is disrupted.
How much does the work cost?
Every job gets its own fixed quote. For yours, phone 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form.

About our construction mastic in Canada
On a new build, the mastic package is one of the last trades through each area, so it lands at exactly the point the programme is tightest. Mastic Doctor takes on mastic packages for main contractors and developers on schemes in Canada, sealing plot by plot or floor by floor as areas are released. If you have bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean and different trades sealing to different standards, we can put it right, whatever the surface. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Canada from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Canada bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for the building.
Work we carry out in Hampshire comes with a 12-month guarantee. If an installation problem shows up, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us and we will arrange a return visit.

Facades, frames and programmes in Canada
Canada sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Winter mornings still bring frost and condensation on frames and panels, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
When a school such as Wellow School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. Units on estates such as Giles Lane Industrial Estate (to the north-west of Canada) tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
Canada is about 5 miles north-west of Totton, in Hampshire. We cover Canada, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else. We work across 723 places in Hampshire, from busy centres to rural villages. We also cover Southampton, around 9 miles from Canada.
Postcode districts covered here: SO51 for mastic packages. We also cover West Wellow (1 mile north), Blackhill (1 mile east), East Wellow (1 mile east), Newbridge (2 miles south) and Plaitford Green (2 miles north) for mastic packages. Bigger towns within reach include Winchester (14 miles north-east), Eastleigh (11 miles east), Totton (5 miles south-east), Chandler's Ford (9 miles east), Hedge End (13 miles east) and Lymington (14 miles south).
Around Canada
Around Canada, our work takes us to commercial buildings near Rockingham Arms. For rail, the closest station is Romsey station, roughly 4.6 miles north-east. A little further out are Tatchbury Mount Hospital (3.5 miles south-east). Green spaces nearby include Copythorne Common.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Where the site stays busy, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed before we move to the next. For work around Canada, we aim to finish in one visit, so we ask for photos and rough sizes first. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Drawings, specification and programme come to us.
- Quantities are measured and a fixed price returned.
- The sequence is agreed with the site manager.
- Each area is sealed when it’s released.
- Every joint is cleaned, set to depth and sealed with the specified product.
- Snags are cleared and the package signed off with our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Let us know about inductions and permits
Ask for a quote
Specifications, drawings and tender packages are welcome with any enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.

Should maintenance staff do it?
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for 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.
Do you need construction mastic in Canada?
A new building moves while it dries and settles. Plaster, screeds, timber and blockwork all shrink as they lose moisture. Choosing the right product for each joint reduces that.
Typical triggers for a call:
- A long mastic snag list close to completion
- Early adhesion failures on new external joints
- Frame perimeters left unsealed or poorly sealed
- Internal caulk splitting as the building dries out
New wings at hospitals like Tatchbury Mount Hospital, 3.5 miles south-east of Canada, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal.
What to look for in a quote
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- How joint depth will be controlled
- Will failed sealant be removed rather than covered?
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
Why it’s worth doing now in Canada
Patching snags as they appear can feel quicker than a proper close-out. A planned sweep of each plot or floor catches the lot in one go, and avoids repeated visits. We can run snagging as its own phase before handover. For buildings around smaller places like Canada, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
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
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- A Constructionline member, so easy to vet
- Fully insured
- Colour options checked against the specified product
Surface by surface
External facade and movement joints
Brickwork, blockwork and panel movement joints need a sealant with the right movement capability. Depth is controlled with backing rod so the bead bonds to two sides only.
Kitchens and utility areas
Kitchen joints are sealed after fitting and before final clean. A kitchen-suitable sealant is used and hygienic or food-safe grades wherever food contact is possible.

Aftercare for building managers
Keep the joints in good shape with a few simple steps:
- Stick to the specified sealant rather than a generic substitute
- Note which sealant went where at handover
- Keep finished joints away from paint, plaster and scrapers
- Allow flexibility for external sealing in damp or cold weather
Record which products went where in the handover file. Future maintenance is easier when the products are known and avoids guesswork when joints are renewed. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Snag items left to the last week put handover at risk. Clearing snags area by area spreads the work out.
