About our mastic sealing in Woodlands
Treatment starts with a proper look: what has failed, what caused it and whether new sealant will actually solve it. Failed mastic is stripped, the faces taken back to sound material, primed where the manufacturer specifies and resealed and backing rod used wherever a joint is deep. Site teams most often ask us about open joints in brickwork or panels and damp patches beside frames, across window and door perimeters on blocks, communal entrances and stairwells and balcony and threshold joints. One point of contact handles commercial sealant work in Woodlands from the first photos to the final walk-round, whether it’s one building or several.
For buildings around smaller places like Woodlands, we group work so one trip covers it. Send photographs of the frames and joints and we’ll give a fixed quote.
We stand by our work: 12 months, guaranteed. That covers our preparation and application, and if something we did falls short, we return to it.

What else we do in Woodlands
What we’re called out for in Woodlands
Buildings move with temperature and moisture, and every joint has to stretch and squeeze with them. If the joint or the product wasn’t suited to the movement, it splits long before it should.
Things that normally lead to an enquiry:
- Failed external movement joints
- Draught complaints from residents or tenants
- Damaged joints in communal entrances and corridors
- Repeated reactive repairs to the same buildings
For agents with blocks near Ashurst New Forest station, 0.9 miles south-east of Woodlands, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go.
Before you book anyone
- How they handle RAMS and site documents
- Whether old or failed sealant will be cut out, not overlaid
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Their approach to joint depth and backing
Looking after the joints
After handover, a little attention goes a long way:
- Check the asbestos register before any old mastic is disturbed
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Log resealing dates block by block
- Share your contractor requirements early
Log the date and extent of the resealing for each block. That makes future programmes easier to plan and gives you a history.
One failed perimeter usually means others on the same building are close, so it pays to look at the whole elevation. Doing them together saves going back again and again.
On site: what to expect
On arrival, we report to your site contact and complete whatever induction the building runs. Everything around the joints gets protected before anything is cut or cleaned, with the work itself typically taking a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. If others near Woodlands need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. A fixed quote is given before anything starts.
- We inspect each building and record the joints that have failed.
- The quote is fixed and split as suits you.
- We agree the programme and dates with you.
- Old mastic is removed and the joint faces prepared.
- New sealant goes in with backing rod and primer where needed.
- We check the finished work and confirm the guarantee.
Getting the site ready
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Arrange parking or a loading space
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

For owners and agents in Woodlands
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK. Outside mastic still needs a dry joint and the right temperature, and the sunniest, most exposed sides of a building usually need attention first. Four care or nursing homes sit less than 2 miles from Woodlands. Frame mastic on care buildings is best renewed elevation by elevation, with the manager deciding timings.
Property owners at sites such as Rushington Business Park (to the east of Woodlands) can have mastic renewed between lettings. For a school such as Netley Marsh Church of England Infant School, perimeter mastic on windows and doors is a holiday job.

Questions we are asked in Woodlands
Can work in a care setting near Woodlands go ahead while residents are there?
Yes, with the manager deciding the order and timing of rooms. Any site rules, from signing in to infection control, are agreed before we start.
Does your area include sites such as Rushington Business Park, near Woodlands?
Yes. We cover Woodlands and the area around it, including industrial estates, business parks and retail parks such as Rushington Business Park. Photos and a short description are enough for a first look.
How long does a typical visit take?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We’ll give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
What do you charge?
Each job is quoted on its own details. For yours, call 01277 525 020 or email us.
Do you need to see the site first?
That depends on the size and complexity of the job. Straightforward work can often be priced from photos and measurements, and bigger or more complex jobs normally get a visit.
Do you work with property factors and landlords?
We do. Most of our mastic sealing is for agents, factors, housing associations and portfolio landlords and work can be quoted per building or as a whole.
How do you choose the sealant?
The specification comes first, if there is one. Without one, the joint decides: how much it moves, what it bonds to and whether it’s wet, trafficked or fire-rated.
