Common questions from Ashley clients
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Lymington New Forest Hospital?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Ashley, such as Gore Road Industrial Estate?
Yes, sites like Gore Road Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Ashley. Send details of the unit and the work through our quote form for a quick quote.
Can you fit around our working hours?
We’re 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.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters.
How soon can the area be used again?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we will confirm the curing time on the day.
Will you check whether the sealant is causing the leak?
Yes. We look at the perimeter sealant and tell you whether it has failed before quoting. If the water seems to come from a roof, sill or the glazing unit instead, we say so.
About our facade sealing in Ashley
Facade sealants sit in the sun, rain and frost every day, and they wear out over time. Life depends on movement, weathering, product choice and the quality of the original work. When it fails, the whole bead is cut away and the joint rebuilt. Most enquiries involve hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes and discoloured or dirty facade joints, across stone and brick facade joints, coping and flashing joints and cladding panel joints. 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.
Conversions around smaller places like Ashley often join new frames to old masonry or timber, and the sealant at those junctions has to cope with two materials that move differently, in a colour the planners or architect are happy with.
What our 12-month guarantee covers is the way we did the job: the preparation, the sealing and the tooling. Damage, later alterations by others and movement beyond what the joint was designed for sit outside it.

What happens if it’s left?
Every shower drives water through a split perimeter bead. The damage builds out of sight: wet linings, rusting fixings, staining and spoiled finishes. Resealing early costs far less than repairing what the water reaches. In a smaller place such as Ashley, getting a contractor back for a second visit takes time, so we’d suggest renewing all the joints that are going, not just the worst.
What a job costs comes down to how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a quote when you are ready.

After the work
Regular inspection catches problems early. Specifically:
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Keep the sealant details on the building file
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Share access with other external trades
Let the new sealant cure before washing the facade or windows near it. Pressure washers and harsh cleaners can damage a fresh bead.
Building facade joints into a maintenance cycle avoids emergency repairs. Inspect regularly and reseal sections as they start to fail, rather than waiting for a ceiling stain.
Owners, agents and contractors
We work for building owners and managing agents on everything from one building to a spread of sites. Several sites can go on one quote, so there’s one set of paperwork to deal with.
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. Work can be phased so residents and staff keep access throughout, and each stage is agreed with your contact.
How a job runs
Site rules come first: sign-in, induction and whatever permit system the building uses. With the paperwork done, we take the joints in the sequence agreed with you. If neighbouring businesses or buildings around Ashley need work too, visits can be combined. Mention the building’s opening times and we will work within them.
- We look at the joints, the drawings and the access before pricing.
- The old bead is cut away completely, not overlaid.
- Joint faces are cleaned to firm, sound material, with primer where the sealant maker specifies it.
- Backing rod, or bond-breaker tape in shallow joints, limits the depth.
- A facade-grade sealant rated for the movement goes in, tooled to a concave profile.
- We walk the finished joints with you before handing over.
Before we start on site
- Make sure the joints can be reached
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings

When it isn’t the sealant
Sealant solves a lot, but not everything, and we’d rather tell you before you spend money. It won’t fix:
- Cracked or spalling substrates that need repair before sealing
- Arranging specialist high-level access, which is planned with the client
- Replacing glass or failed glazing units
Not sure which it is? You can give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email drawings and photos and we will tell you honestly before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Cladding panel joints
- Coping and flashing joints
- Window and door perimeters
- Shopfront frames
- Stone and brick facade joints
Common problems we fix in Ashley
New sealant run over old sealant rarely holds. Fresh silicone won’t stick to cured silicone, and the patch soon lifts.
What tends to prompt an enquiry:
- Discoloured or dirty facade joints
- Facade joints cracked through the middle
- Air leaks through failed facade joints
- Gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels
For a contractor working at a hospital such as Lymington New Forest Hospital, 4.3 miles to the east of Ashley, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
Before you book anyone
- Health and safety accreditation such as CHAS
- Will RAMS and insurance details be available?
- How the existing material will be dealt with
- Can the work be phased to keep areas open?
Building and refurbishing in Ashley
Ashley sits close to the coast, within about 2 miles. Schemes this close to the sea see their facade joints tested by wind and rain from the day they’re sealed, and the sealant, primer and backing need choosing with that in mind. A number of hotels sit less than 2 miles from Ashley. Hotel extensions and refits usually have to fit around bookings, so mastic dates are tight.
For contractors at a school such as Ashley Junior School, sealing has to be finished before term starts. Recladding or extending a unit at a site like Gore Road Industrial Estate, 1.3 miles south-west of Ashley, brings panel joints and frame perimeters into the programme.
