Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and their life depends on movement, exposure, cleaning and use. Our advice:
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Investigate damp beside windows promptly
- Combine resealing with other works that need access
- Note when each elevation was last resealed
Hold back any cleaning crew until the joints have had their stated cure time. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead, so brief your window cleaners.
In pre-2000 buildings, check the asbestos register before old sealant is cut out. Older sealants can contain asbestos.
How we handle facade sealing in Ashley
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. When a perimeter bead splits or peels, water finds its way behind frames and into the structure. We cut out failed facade joints and reseal them with a facade-grade sealant suited to the movement. Site teams most often ask us about failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and old perimeter mastic that has dried out, on window and door perimeters, perimeter joints where frames meet the structure and shopfront frames. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Ashley? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
In the countryside around places like Ashley, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. Those joints need a sealant that suits an uneven, sometimes porous surface, and often a colour chosen for 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 spell out the cover before we begin.

Contractors’ notes for Ashley
Ashley 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, which is why external dates are agreed with the site manager. Ashley lies roughly 66 miles out from central London. Towns within reach of London tend to keep building, from flats to offices and schools, and main contractors there need mastic that keeps to the programme.
Projects at colleges like Sparsholt College Rifle Range (2.4 miles north-east of Ashley) tend to run to term dates, so the mastic is planned tightly. New wings at hospitals like Royal Hampshire County Hospital (to the east of Ashley) bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. Older buildings in the area around Ashley, such as Mottisfont Abbey, 4.3 miles to the south-west of Ashley, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.
Ashley is about 6 miles north of Romsey, in Hampshire. We cover commercial sites throughout Ashley, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. We work across 723 places in Hampshire, from busy centres to rural villages. Sites around Southampton have their own page, roughly 11 miles from Ashley.

How the job changes by surface
Cladding panel joints
Joints between cladding panels open and close with temperature. The sealant has to match the movement and the panel finish, often a low-modulus silicone or hybrid.
Coping and flashing joints
Where the specification calls for sealant at copings or flashings, we can seal them. These joints take full exposure to weather, so preparation and product choice matter.

Not at all. Ashley is within our area. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. Where we can, we group nearby jobs to make the most of each trip.

How do I request a quote?
You can use the quote form on this site; alternatively, ring 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos. Photos, drawings or a joint schedule help us quote quickly.
What hours do you work?
We are in the office from 8am until 5pm, Monday to Friday. Let us know your site hours and access windows, and the work will be planned around them.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. Should the site need card details in advance, let us know and we’ll send them with the quote.
How long does a job like this take?
It depends on the scope, though a typical visit usually takes anything from a single day to several weeks, depending on joint lengths, access and the weather. Larger or phased jobs take longer, and we will give you a timescale with the quote.
How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- The size and state of each joint
- The total length or number of joints
- How much existing material needs removing
- Which sealant the job calls for
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: scope, access, product and programme. Call for a quote and we will put a fixed figure on it.
Sending details for a quote
A good diagnosis starts with the right details. Let us know:
- Asbestos survey details if the building is older
- Any dates the work must fit around
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
- The postcode of the building
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we will price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photographs and a few notes.
Leave it or put it right?
Each spell of rain drives water past a failed facade joint. Behind the frame, that can mean damp plaster, stained ceilings, corroded fixings and damaged insulation. Resealing now costs less than repairing interiors later. Older rural buildings around Ashley move with the seasons, and rigid or tired sealant can’t keep up. The right product, sized to the joint, copes much better.
There’s no price list, since every building and every scope is different. Call for a quote.

When to bring in a specialist
Paperwork matters too. Main contractors and clients often ask for CSCS cards, RAMS and insurance details, and our CSCS-carded applicators are used to working under those rules.
General builders and handymen seal joints, but it isn’t their main trade. A specialist prepares properly, controls joint depth and picks a product with the right movement class.
