Facade sealing in Woodland
Facade joints are the line of defence between the weather and the building fabric. When a perimeter bead splits or peels, water finds its way behind frames and into the structure. We remove failed sealant and install a new bead chosen for the joint and how far it moves. The enquiries we see most involve failed seals around shopfront and entrance frames and cladding panel joints that have opened up, on shopfront frames, coping and flashing joints and perimeter joints where frames meet the structure. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Woodland? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, CHAS accredited and a Constructionline member.
In the countryside around places like Woodland, 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.
We sign every job off with a 12-month guarantee. It’s a plain promise: if the work we did fails within twelve months, we return to fix it.

Keeping the joints sound
Sealant joints are maintenance items, and how long they last depends on how they’re treated. We suggest:
- Avoid patch repairs on failed facade joints
- Report water ingress at frames as soon as it shows
- Brief window cleaners about newly sealed joints
- Confirm the survey covers external sealants in older buildings
Look at perimeter and panel joints as part of routine building checks. Watch for splits, gaps at the edges, hardening and discolouration; record the locations.
Get the joint design right when resealing: correct depth, proper backing and a sealant that can take the movement. A well-designed joint lasts longer than a like-for-like copy of a failed one.
Sites and facades in and around Woodland
At about 56 miles from central London, Woodland is within reach of the capital. Construction around the commuter belt mixes station-side flats with refurbished offices and units, and each scheme needs its mastic sealed to programme. Woodland is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Even so, frost and condensation on steel and glass are common on winter mornings, so the external programme keeps a little slack.
School extensions, at buildings such as Lyminge Church of England Primary School, normally run to the summer holidays, mastic included. New wings at hospitals like Royal Victoria Hospital, 5.6 miles to the south-east of Woodland, bring long runs of window and panel joints to seal. With historic properties like Acrise Place (to the east of Woodland) in the area, refurbishment work often meets old masonry that needs compatible sealants.
Woodland is about 4 miles north of Hythe, in Kent. Anywhere in CT18, the process is the same: details in, fixed quote out, then sealing and a 12-month guarantee. Our Kent coverage takes in 931 places, from busy centres to rural villages. Our London page has more on work in that area, about 56 miles away.

Questions about Woodland
Can you work to our programme on a site in or near Woodland?
Yes. Send the programme and drawings, and we will plan the mastic to suit the stages. Any paperwork you need, from RAMS to our insurance certificate and CSCS details, is confirmed with the quote.
Is a smaller place like Woodland outside your area?
No. Places such as Woodland are covered as much as the big towns. We cover Greater London and the counties of the South East. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the certificate can go with your quote.
Do you take on multi-site work?
Yes. Multi-site work and planned programmes are a core part of the service, with each site phased to suit its occupants.
When can you be on site?
Mention the site’s hours and access windows in your enquiry, and we’ll plan around them. You can reach the office between 8am and 5pm, Monday to Friday.
What about RAMS and site documents?
Requirements differ from site to site, so list what you need, whether RAMS, insurance or CSCS details, and we will confirm with the quote.
When can the area be used after sealing?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some products skin over quickly but need longer to cure fully, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.

What happens if it’s left?
Scaffold or access already on site makes resealing much simpler. Combine it with planned external works and you only arrange access once, which is often the biggest saving. Around Woodland, it’s better to renew all the failing joints at once, rather than one at a time. Photos of every joint help us quote for the whole job.
The price depends on how many linear metres there are, how much old material needs removing and the access. Call for a fixed quote once you have the details.
What you get with us
- Joints cleaned back to sound surfaces
- A range of standard colours, depending on the product

For managing agents and facilities managers
Whether you’re a managing agent, a property factor or an owner’s representative: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, guaranteed. We can agree access arrangements and keyholder contacts beforehand.
We take on planned maintenance as well as one-off repairs: resealing failed joints building by building, on a schedule that suits your budget. Woodland can form part of a wider programme.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
When we get to site, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work usually takes a day or two for a few elevations, and longer where access has to be moved around the building. Jobs in and around smaller places like Woodland are typically planned as a single visit, so photos and measurements up front really help. Then the right materials arrive with us.
- Access, site rules and timing are settled with the client up front.
- We only seal when joints are dry and within the product’s temperature range.
- 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
- Warn occupants and staff about the work
- Send asbestos survey details if the building is pre-2000
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Advice
How the job changes by surface
Perimeter joints at frames and structure
The joint around a framed system, where it meets the structure, needs sealant. Our work is that perimeter joint.
Window and door perimeters
Frames grow and shrink with temperature, and the perimeter joint has to follow. Rod placed at the right depth lets the bead stretch as the frame moves.
How the quote is worked out
What shapes the price:
- How much there is to seal
- Whether old sealant has to be cut out first
- Any access equipment needed
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
No two sites price the same: joint size, product, access and site hours all play a part. A fixed quote follows once we understand the job.
Details that help us quote
We can often quote from photos and a few details. Please tell us:
- Your programme or deadline
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- A wide shot and a close-up of the area
- The asbestos register, for older buildings
If there’s a specification, drawings or a tender package, send it with your enquiry, and we’ll price against exactly what is specified. Smaller jobs need nothing more than photos and a few notes.
