Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Shootash
We are often asked to look at water coming in around frames. Very often the perimeter bead has cracked or lost its grip, though that isn’t the only cause. We will tell you if we think the leak is coming from somewhere sealant won’t fix. Most enquiries involve perimeter sealant that has split or peeled away and water coming in around window frames, on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and stone and brick facade joints. Whoever orders the work in Shootash, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Sites around smaller places like Shootash can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs. Drawings, photos and the programme let us give a fixed quote.
Guaranteed is the last step of every job. Our workmanship is backed for 12 months, and the quote explains what it covers.

Site staff or a sealant specialist?
For a quick touch-up, site staff may be fine, but larger jobs are different: a specialist brings efficiency, a consistent finish and a 12-month guarantee.
A short, simple internal joint is often within reach of a maintenance team. Where it goes wrong is preparation: new sealant over old, damp or dusty faces, or the wrong product for the movement.

What else we do in Shootash
Contractors’ notes for Shootash
Rainfall across the South East, Shootash included, is lower than in many parts of the UK. That doesn’t stop wet spells, or frosty starts that leave panels too damp to seal, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager.
New units and refits on sites such as Budds Lane Industrial Estate, 2 miles to the east of Shootash, need their panel and perimeter joints sealed to the specification. For a contractor working at a hospital such as Romsey Hospital, 2.9 miles to the east of Shootash, perimeter and facade sealing is planned around patients and deliveries.
Shootash is about 3 miles west of Romsey, in Hampshire. Any commercial site in Shootash is covered, for single jobs and planned programmes alike. We work across 723 places in Hampshire, large and small. For work in that direction, see our Southampton page, about 9 miles away.

Surface by surface
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 and need a durable external sealant.
Brick and stone facades
Stone can absorb plasticisers from the wrong sealant. The specified stone-compatible sealant is what we use, with masked edges for a clean line.
When something else is needed
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Specialist high-level access methods
- Joints too narrow for the movement they take, which need redesign
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
Not sure which it is? You can call the office on 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we will tell you honestly before you book.

Shootash: questions and answers
Will you take on work at estates like Budds Lane Industrial Estate, close to Shootash?
Yes, sites like Budds Lane Industrial Estate are within our area, along with the rest of Shootash. To start, just call the office on 01277 525 020 or email the details over with the unit, the joints involved and your access times.
Do you take on work at healthcare sites like Romsey Hospital?
Yes, healthcare and care buildings are part of our work. We follow the site’s permits, sign-in and infection-control procedures in every area.
Can the sealant be colour-matched?
It depends on the product specified. Some ranges are wide, others limited, so the available colours are confirmed with the quote.
Can you work on upper floors?
Access is planned with you before we quote. Tell us about access: existing scaffold, what you’re arranging and any site restrictions, and we’ll price the work around it.
Are you CHAS accredited?
Yes. Mastic Doctor is CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm with the quote.
What hours do you work?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll schedule the work to suit. Our office runs Monday to Friday, 8am until 5pm.
Why act early in Shootash
Patch repairs over old sealant tend to come back. A full cut-out and reseal costs more on the day but lasts much longer, so you aren’t paying for the same joint twice. One visit to deal with every failing joint makes more sense than several trips to a place like Shootash. Send photos of each area and we will quote for the lot.
Small jobs and large programmes are priced from the same things: what’s in scope, how we reach it, what’s specified and when it needs doing. Call for a quote, and you’ll have a fixed figure to work with.

- Work carried out by CSCS-carded applicators

Advice
Do you need facade sealing in Shootash?
The wrong product causes its share of trouble: an acetoxy cure can mark stone or corrode some metals, and interior products break down outdoors. Neutral-cure, facade-grade products are what most external joints need.
It’s worth sending us details if you spot any of the following:
- Failed sealant on precast panel joints
- Previous reseals run over old sealant
- Old perimeter mastic that has dried out
- Staining on stone next to old sealant
Historic houses such as Mottisfont Abbey, 3 miles north of Shootash, are a reminder of the older buildings in the wider area, where sealing against old stone, brick or timber needs compatible products.
