Cost factors for facade joints
To price the job, we consider:
- The site’s rules and procedures
- The size and state of each joint
- How much existing material needs removing
- Location, for remote and island sites
A quote for facade joints depends on how many there are, their condition and the access, and any specification that applies. Call for a quote.
What to include in your enquiry
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- Your programme or deadline
- Clear photos of the problem areas
- Access details, including height
- The product your specification calls for
We quote a fixed sum against the scope you give us, so the cost is agreed before work starts. To start the process, speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email us.
About our facade sealing in Marchwood
A good facade joint depends on design as much as product. Joint width needs to match how far the joint moves and how far the sealant can stretch, while rod fixes the depth and stops the bead sticking to the rear. If you have unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and gaps between rainscreen or cladding panels, we can help. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Marchwood first comes to us: we look at the rest while we’re there and tell you what we find.
Around places like Marchwood, a lot of construction is the conversion of older buildings, 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.
The 12-month guarantee is for workmanship rather than 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.

Do you need facade sealing in Marchwood?
Cohesive failure, a split through the middle of the bead, points to an over-stretched joint. Too thin a bead, too narrow a joint or a product with the wrong movement class are common reasons.
Any of the following is a good reason to get the joints checked over:
- Sealant pulling away from frames or panels
- Hard, chalky sealant that no longer flexes
- Cladding panel joints that have opened up
- Damp patches beside frames after rain
Further education sites such as Southampton City College (to the east of Marchwood) are extended and refurbished from time to time, with mastic often programmed into the summer break.
Before you book anyone
- The named product and why it was chosen
- The terms of the workmanship guarantee
- Do they follow the manufacturer’s priming guidance?
- Are they CHAS accredited or on Constructionline?
Site staff or a sealant specialist?
Some joints are best left to specialists: for instance fire-rated seals that must match a tested detail, trafficked floor joints and external movement joints. A poor seal in places like these tends to cost more to put right later.
The visible bead is only part of the job. Backing rod, primer where specified and a joint designed to move with the building are easy to get wrong without experience.
Your questions answered
Can being near the sea in Marchwood affect the sealant we need?
It can, yes: buildings near the sea take more wind-driven rain, and salt in the air nearer the shore. That puts more weight on product choice, primers where the manufacturer specifies them, and correct joint sizing.
Can you work around term dates at a campus such as Southampton Solent University?
Yes. Education sites usually want the work in vacations or in phases during term, and we plan to suit. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Do you need to see the site first?
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.
Are you insured?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is fully insured, public liability included.
Is the work guaranteed?
Yes. It runs for twelve months and covers how we prepared and sealed the joints, though not damage or work by other trades.
Do you provide access for facade work?
That varies with the building and the access on offer. When you speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings, describe the access, and we will agree the approach together.
Do you replace failed glazing units?
No. A glazing contractor handles that. We reseal window perimeters, panel joints and frame-to-structure perimeters across the facade.
Facades, frames and programmes in Marchwood
The sea is no more than about 1 mile from Marchwood. On a coastal site, facade and perimeter joints face driven rain and, closer to the beach, salt, which puts weight on correct joint sizing, priming and a sealant suited to the exposure. The area within 2 miles of Marchwood holds several hotels. Hotel refurbishments often run to tight programmes between busy periods, and perimeter and sanitary sealant has to keep up.
When units on a site such as Marchwood Industrial Park, 0.7 miles north-east of Marchwood, are refurbished or reclad, the panel joints and window perimeters are part of the mastic package. Building work at universities like Southampton Solent University (2.5 miles north-east of Marchwood) is often timed for the summer, mastic included.

From enquiry to sign-off
In a busy building, the work is phased so only one area is out of use at a time. Each section is protected, cleaned back and sealed, then reopened once the sealant allows before we move to the next. For a job in Marchwood, the main thing is a clear picture of the work, so send photos of each area. A fixed quote follows.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- Each joint is cut out and the edges inspected.
- Joints are cleaned, primed if required and fitted with backing rod.
- Facade-grade sealant goes in and is tooled to a tidy concave profile.
- Once signed off, the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
Preparing the site
- Tell staff and tenants when we’ll be in
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Arrange parking or a loading space

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
Perimeter joints at frames often show their age first. They are cut out, cleaned, backed and resealed.
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. Faces are cleaned to sound concrete, and damaged edges are reported before sealing.
