Mastic sealing in Bursledon
For blocks and buildings in Bursledon and across Hampshire, the process is the same: send details, get a fixed quote, we seal, and the work is guaranteed. Addresses, photographs of typical joints and a rough idea of quantities let us give a quick quote, and site visits can be arranged. We work on communal kitchens and washrooms, shopfronts below residential blocks and communal entrances and stairwells, and the failures we are asked to look at most are mastic failing across several blocks on an estate and water getting in round frames after rain. Looking for mastic applicators who cover Bursledon? Mastic Doctor has worked for contractors, FMs and building owners since 2005, with CSCS-carded applicators.
In a smaller place such as Bursledon, landlords and agents tend to look after small blocks, flats over shops, sheltered housing and commercial units. Their window perimeters and external joints need renewing as the mastic ages.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application.

What affects the price in Bursledon
There’s no standard rate for sealant work, because every site is different. What we look at:
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
- Distance, for remote addresses
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- Working within restricted access windows
Access often affects the price as much as the sealing: joints within easy reach take less time than ones that need access equipment. Mention the access as part of your enquiry.
Before you send an enquiry
The more we know, the firmer the quote. When you get in touch, include:
- Access details, including height
- Approximate linear metres or a joint schedule
- The product your specification calls for
- Where the site is, with the postcode
Tell us about the building, the joints and when you need the work done, and a fixed quote will follow. The easiest way is to speak to us on 01277 525 020 or use the quote form.
Questions we are asked in Bursledon
Our building in Bursledon is near the coast: does that change the sealant?
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.
We manage a building near Bursledon station. Can you help?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Photos of each elevation help us quote accurately.
Can weather delay the job?
It can, when the joints are outside. Wet joints and cold, damp or frosty conditions stop the sealant bonding properly, so external work may be moved if conditions aren’t right. Internal work is far less affected.
Which sealant will you use?
Where there’s a specification, we use the product it names. If not, we choose for the movement, the surfaces and the conditions, in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
Do you work to architects’ specifications?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to.
What paperwork can you provide?
We are CHAS accredited, a Constructionline member and carry public liability insurance. Tell us what site paperwork you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we’ll confirm with the quote.
Do you work in Bursledon?
Yes. We cover Bursledon, within our coverage of Greater London, South East England and Scotland. To discuss a job, phone 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings.
Keeping the joints sound
Problems stay small when the joints are checked regularly. Specifically:
- Encourage occupiers to report problems at frames
- Group repairs into a planned programme
- Check sealant joints during planned building inspections
- Prioritise elevations facing the weather
If paintable sealant was used, decoration can follow once it has cured. Silicone normally can’t be painted, so keep decorators off it unless told otherwise.
Planned resealing is easier to budget than emergency repairs. We can quote buildings in priority order and work down the list.
Leave it or put it right?
Piecemeal repairs over the years often leave mismatched sealant. Resealing a whole building gives a consistent finish and one 12-month guarantee. For buildings in places like Bursledon, one well-planned visit beats several small ones, so it’s worth dealing with every failing joint at once.
The product called for affects the cost, as does the preparation each joint needs, such as cutting out, priming or new backing rod. Access, phasing and site rules also count.
Why clients in Bursledon choose us
- 12-month guarantee on workmanship
- Failed material removed, not covered up
- Products installed to the manufacturer’s instructions
- Standard and matched colours in many product ranges
When something else is needed
A few problems need another trade or a different fix, and we say so rather than covering them up:
- Asbestos-containing sealant, which we don’t remove
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
If in doubt, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we’ll say what we think.

What else we do in Bursledon
Signs you need mastic sealing in Bursledon
We often find joints filled solid with no backing rod, so the mastic is glued to the joint bottom too. That three-sided adhesion stops it stretching and it tears.
If one of these sounds familiar, it’s time for a closer look:
- A mix of products and colours from past repairs
- Mastic failing across several blocks on an estate
- Window mastic that has split and shrunk
- Draughts at frames across a block
Landlords with units on estates such as Ensign Way Business Park, 2.1 miles to the south of Bursledon, can bring frame, door and external mastic across several units into one programme.
