Facade sealing in Redlands
Weather decides a lot in facade sealing. Joints have to be dry and the air and surface temperature within the product’s range, and cold, damp starts can delay work. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. The enquiries we see most involve discoloured or dirty facade joints and cold air coming in at window perimeters, on shopfront frames, window and door perimeters and cladding panel joints. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Redlands? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
In the countryside around places like Redlands, conversion schemes put new frames into old stone, flint, brick or timber. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is typically what’s needed.
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’re clear about what is covered before work starts.

What else we do in Redlands
Diagnose, treat, sign off
Before we leave any area, we remove the tape, clean down and inspect every joint, ready for your sign-off. Where the sealant needs time to cure before use, we tell you and sign the area. Jobs in and around smaller places like Redlands are normally planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. That way the right products come on the day.
- Photos, drawings or a visit tell us about the joints and the access.
- We confirm the joint type, movement and the specified product.
- The existing bead comes out in full and the joint faces cleaned.
- Primer goes on where the product data asks for it.
- Backing rod is fitted and the new sealant gunned in and tooled.
- The finished joints are checked with you.
Getting the site ready
- Have the specification and drawings to hand
- Agree which areas must stay open
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000

Facade sealing around Redlands: points for this area
Central London is about 37 miles from Redlands. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Redlands 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 external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
When a school such as Crondall Primary School is extended or refurbished, the mastic package is often squeezed into the holidays. Older buildings in the area around Redlands, such as Farnham Castle, 2.3 miles south-east of Redlands, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials. Units on estates such as Fleet Business Park, 1.7 miles to the north-east of Redlands, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
Redlands is about 3 miles south of Fleet, in Hampshire. We cover Redlands and the rest of Hampshire, and jobs here get the same fixed quote and 12-month guarantee as anywhere else.

FAQs: Redlands
Will you plan work around the academic year at somewhere like University for the Creative Arts?
Yes, holiday working periods are the norm on campus jobs. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Do you cover business parks and estates near Redlands, such as Fleet Business Park?
Yes. Estates, retail parks and business parks around Redlands, Fleet Business Park among them, are all within reach. To start, just speak to us on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do your applicators hold CSCS cards?
Yes. If you need card details for site access, let us know and we will send them with the quote.
Is old mastic on our building likely to contain asbestos?
It’s worth checking in any building from before 2000. The dutyholder holds the asbestos register, so ask for it before we start. If asbestos is suspected, work stops until it is tested.
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 many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. You’ll have an expected duration with the quote.
How is access to upper-level joints handled?
We agree access with the client at the start. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you’re arranging and any site restrictions, and we’ll price the work around it.
How the job changes by surface
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. Faces are cleaned to sound concrete, and damaged edges are reported first.
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use.
Keeping the joints sound
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Walk the elevations once or twice a year
- Plan facade sealing alongside redecoration
- Don’t wait for a second leak before calling
- Keep pressure washers away from fresh sealant
Keep gutters, sills and drainage paths clear. Good drainage keeps water moving off the facade rather than sitting against the joints.
Use each reseal to correct the joint: the right width, backing rod and a sealant with enough movement capability. Repeating a faulty detail just repeats the failure.
Cost factors for facade joints
The price varies from site to site. It mainly depends on:
- Site requirements such as inductions and permits
- Any access equipment needed
- Phasing around occupants
- Location, for remote and island sites
Quantities, awkward access and phased working all shape the price. So do site requirements such as inductions and permits, along with the time of year for external work.
Before you send an enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. Helpful details to send:
- Rough lengths or quantities, or drawings if you have them
- Any specification or named product
- The type of building and who uses it
- How the joints are reached, and at what height
A good quote starts with a clear picture: what’s there, how much of it, how we reach it and what’s specified. Send what you have, and we will arrange a site visit if anything is unclear.
