Common questions from Redford clients
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Midhurst Community Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Is Redford too small for you to travel to?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Send photographs and a list of what needs doing, and we’ll plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Can you seal external joints in wet or cold weather?
External sealing goes ahead only with a dry joint inside the product’s temperature range. Sealing in poor conditions risks adhesion failure.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Sealant won’t bond properly to a wet or frosty joint, so we watch the forecast and rearrange outside work if we have to. Indoors, the weather is rarely a problem.
Will you come and look before quoting?
It depends on the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs typically get a visit.
Can fire-rated sealing at service penetrations be included?
Fire-rated sealing at service penetrations and linear gaps can be included where specified. Tell us what records you need and we will confirm with the quote.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Construction mastic in Redford, done properly
We work to the specification and the programme rather than whatever product is to hand. Where the specification names a product, we use it. Backing, primer and depth follow what the sealant maker sets out. We work on sanitary and kitchen joints, cladding and panel joints and brick and block movement joints, and what we are called in for most is new external sealant already peeling away and existing joints on a refurb that need cutting out and resealing. For commercial sealant work in Redford, you deal with one contact from quote to sign-off, for single jobs and planned programmes alike.
Sites around smaller places like Redford can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Our 12-month guarantee is about workmanship, not wear and tear. How long a sealant joint lasts depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use, so we spell out the cover before we begin.

Why it’s worth doing now in Redford
A quick bead over a damaged joint can get an area past inspection, but it rarely lasts. New sealant laid on old or dirty sealant has nothing to bond to and the defect reappears in the defects period. We cut out and redo the joint properly. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Redford. Send photographs of each area and we will quote for the lot.
The work involved drives the cost: stripping out, preparation, sealing, access and phasing. Call for a fixed quote.

Looking after the joints
Your facilities or cleaning team can help the joints last. Pass these on to them:
- Bring the mastic contractor in after the last trades are through
- Brief following trades on areas that have been sealed
- Check frame gaps are within the sealant’s range before sealing
- Share drawings and the specification as soon as possible
Brief the sparkle clean so they don’t scrape the new joints. Scrapers used on frames and worktops can nick or lift a new bead.
One unsealed frame can let water into finished internal areas. On a new building that means remedial work after decorating and possibly a delayed handover. Checking perimeters before internal finishes go on avoids it.
General trades versus a specialist
Site maintenance staff can often handle a short internal joint. The usual problems come from preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.
Paperwork matters too. Many sites expect CSCS cards, RAMS and proof of insurance, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
Commercial clients in Redford
Main contractors use us as their sealant subcontractor on new-build and refurbishment projects. Programme, specification and site rules come first, and our applicators hold CSCS cards.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm them with the quote.
Signs you need construction mastic in Redford
A joint without backing rod or bond-breaker often fails early. Bonded to the base of the joint and both sides, sealant can’t stretch evenly so we set the depth properly before sealing.
Things that typically lead to an enquiry:
- Oversized or tapered gaps around new frames
- A mastic package split between trades with no clear owner
- Sealant knocked or painted over by other trades
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
With historic properties like Cowdray House, 3.4 miles to the south-east of Redford, in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
What your quote should include
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- The named product and why it was chosen
- Their plan for phasing and protecting the area
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
Facades, frames and programmes in Redford
Central London is about 44 miles from Redford. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, so mastic packages have to keep pace with busy programmes. Redford sits in one of the drier corners of the country, the South East. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so we time external mastic for dry faces and agree it with the site team.
Hospital estates such as Midhurst Community Hospital (to the south-east of Redford) tend to grow and change in phases, often next to occupied wards, so facade and perimeter sealing has to fit the estates team’s plan. When units on a site such as Hurstfold Industrial Estate (to the east of Redford) are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package.
Redford is about 7 miles east of Petersfield, in West Sussex. Businesses, contractors and managing agents in Redford use us for work on mastic packages, as part of our coverage of West Sussex. We work across 373 places in West Sussex. We also cover Portsmouth, some 20 miles away.
