Facade sealing for commercial buildings in Slindon
External sealing depends on the weather more than most trades. The sealant needs a dry joint and temperatures inside the maker’s limits, so frosty or damp mornings can hold work back. We build that into the programme and tell you if the forecast changes the plan. We work on perimeter joints where frames meet the structure, shopfront frames and stone and brick facade joints, and what we’re called in for most is unsightly perimeter sealant on a visible elevation and damp patches beside frames after rain. Searching for sealant specialists in Slindon? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005.
Conversions of older rural buildings near smaller places such as Slindon bring stone, flint, brick and timber up against new glazing. A product that grips an irregular face, with a colour that suits the building’s character, is normally what’s needed.
We stand by our work with a 12-month guarantee. It covers how we prepared and applied the sealant.

Contractors’ notes for Slindon
Slindon lies roughly 50 miles out from central London. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. There are several hotels within about 2 miles of Slindon. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
Projects at schools like Slindon CofE Primary School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. With historic properties like Bignor Roman Villa (4.3 miles north of Slindon) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants. On a healthcare site such as Arundel and District Hospital, which lies east of Slindon, new blocks and refurbishments go on while the hospital keeps running, so mastic work is sequenced carefully.

What sealant work can’t fix
Not every problem is a sealant problem, and we are upfront when that’s the case. It won’t fix:
- Damaged frames that need replacing
- Water getting in through cracked render or porous masonry
- Installing or repairing glazing systems
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or send photos by email and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
What we seal
- Perimeter joints where frames meet the structure
- Stone and brick facade joints
- Cladding panel joints
- Coping and flashing joints
- Shopfront frames
- Window and door perimeters
Surface by surface
Render and coated surfaces
Rendered and painted facades need a sound edge for the sealant to bond to. Loose coatings are cleaned back first.
Precast concrete panels
Concrete edges can be dusty or weak. We clean back to sound material and flag edges that need repair before sealing.
Our process
At the end of each section, the masking comes off, the area is cleaned and every joint is checked. If an area should be left alone while the sealant cures, we say how long and put signs out. Jobs in and around smaller places like Slindon are normally planned as a single visit, so we ask for photographs and rough sizes first. That way the right products come on the day.
- We plan access and the order of elevations with the client.
- Weather and temperature are checked against the product’s limits.
- We remove the old bead and check the edges are sound.
- 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.
What we need from you
- Point out parking and an unloading spot
- Clear stock, furniture or equipment away from the joints
- Share your working hours and any access restrictions

Leave it or put it right?
Failed joints let in more than water: occupants notice draughts and cold spots around windows. Resealing deals with the draught as well as the leak. For buildings around smaller places like Slindon, water damage can go unnoticed for longer, especially where a building isn’t used daily, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Resealing early avoids that.
The product called for affects the cost, and so does the preparation, from cutting out to priming and backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.

Slindon: questions and answers
Is hospital work, at somewhere like Arundel and District Hospital, something you do?
Yes. Healthcare sites are among the places we work. Before anything starts, the estates team agrees permits, inductions and infection-control measures with us.
Is Slindon off your patch?
Not at all: smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across Greater London and the South East. Send photos and a list of what needs doing, and we will plan the job to need as few trips as possible.
Will you come and look before quoting?
Photos, drawings or a schedule are often enough to quote. If the job needs a look first, we will arrange a visit before quoting.
Should we check old sealant for asbestos?
In older non-domestic buildings, old sealant can contain asbestos. The dutyholder’s asbestos register should be checked first; if it’s suspected, work stops until it has been tested. Removal of asbestos isn’t something we do.
Is it fine to apply new sealant on top of old?
No. Failed sealant is removed and the faces cleaned back to sound, dry material first, because fresh silicone will not bond with aged silicone.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Will you quote for a small job?
Single areas, one-off repairs and whole buildings are all quoted the same way: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed.
