FAQs: Ovington
Is Ovington off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. We work across Greater London and the South East. Good photographs up front let us bring everything on the first visit.
Is hospital work, at somewhere like St John's Rooms And Chapel, something you do?
Yes, hospitals are one of the sectors we cover. Work is phased so departments keep running, under the site’s own rules.
How long do sealant joints last?
It depends on movement, UV and weather, cleaning, traffic and the product. Sealant joints are maintenance items, so inspect them regularly.
How long before the joints can be used?
That comes down to the sealant and the temperature. Some take light use quickly, others need longer to cure, so we’ll confirm the curing time on the day.
Can you work to our specification?
Yes. The specification and the manufacturer’s installation guidance are what we work to, and we raise anything unclear before work begins.
Does weather matter for sealant work?
It can, for external work. 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.
How do we ask for a quote?
It works in four steps: send details, get a quote, we seal, guaranteed. The first step only needs photos and a postcode.
Construction mastic in Ovington
Mastic Doctor has been a subcontractor on construction projects for over 20 years. Quantities come off the drawings, the sequence is agreed with the site manager and the work follows the trades. For construction mastic on a scheme in Ovington, send drawings through our quote form, or phone or email us to talk it through. The enquiries we see most involve different trades sealing to different standards and bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean, on brick and block movement joints, floor and skirting junctions and internal decorators’ caulk. A single leaking joint is often how a building in Ovington first comes to us: we check the joints around it and give you an honest view of what needs doing now and what can wait.
Sites around smaller places like Ovington can be a fair drive from suppliers, so we come with everything the package needs, timed to the stage the job has reached. Drawings, photographs 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.

New build and refits around Ovington
Ovington is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. Still, external mastic needs dry faces within the maker’s temperature limits, which isn’t every day, so external mastic is timed for workable conditions and agreed with the site manager. Ovington has several hotels close by, all within 2 miles. Hotel schemes tend to have fixed reopening dates, so the mastic is programmed tightly with the other trades.
Projects at schools like Perins School work to term dates, so mastic is programmed tightly. Units on estates such as Abbas Business Centre, 1.7 miles north-west of Ovington, tend to be reclad and refitted as tenants change, and each job leaves cladding and perimeter joints to seal.
Ovington is about 5 miles east of Hyde, in Hampshire. We send applicators to Ovington for mastic packages. We work across 723 places in Hampshire, large and small. We also cover Southampton, around 14 miles from Ovington.

If your building is just outside Ovington, we cover Itchen Stoke (1 mile north-west), Itchen Abbas (2 miles north-west), Temple Valley (2 miles south-west), Martyr Worthy (2 miles west) and Easton (3 miles west).

Our process
Where the site stays busy, we agree a sequence with your contact so the disruption stays in one area at once. Each area is protected, prepared and sealed, then handed back before we move to the next. If others near Ovington need work, visits can be combined, which keeps travel down. You’ll have a fixed quote before work starts.
- First we look at the scope on site or from drawings.
- A fixed quote sets out scope, products and phasing.
- Paperwork is agreed and applicators are inducted on site.
- Sealing follows the programme as areas are released.
- Any frame gaps or issues outside our scope are flagged to the site team.
- The package is closed out, snags cleared and backed by our 12-month guarantee.
Before we start on site
- Tell us your opening times and when work is allowed
- Point out any areas we must not close
- Send any specification or drawings in advance

Send us photographs, drawings or a joint schedule are often enough for a fixed quote. Where a site visit makes more sense, we’ll arrange one.

Why deal with it now?
Some packages split mastic across the window fitter, kitchen fitter and plumber. The result tends to be uneven finishes and arguments about who should seal what. One mastic subcontractor for the lot keeps it simple. Halls, stores and units around places like Ovington may not be checked every day, which gives a failed joint time to do damage. Renewing joints in good time avoids the problem.
The price depends on the quantity of joints, how much old material needs removing and how the joints are reached. Call for a quote when you are ready.

What affects the price in Ovington
We price every job individually. The main factors are:
- Backing rod, priming and other preparation
- The total length or number of joints
- Phasing around occupants
- Induction, permit and paperwork requirements
Larger quantities, tricky access or phasing all shape the price. Site requirements like inductions and permits play a part as well.
Sending details for a quote
For an accurate fixed quote, we need a clear picture of the site. Send us:
- The postcode of the building
- Your programme or deadline
- Anything awkward about access or site hours
- Whether an asbestos survey exists
A handful of photos and a postcode is the fastest way to a quote. Upload them with the quote form, or call 01277 525 020 or use the quote form to discuss it first.
When to call us in Ovington
A joint without backing rod or bond-breaker often fails early. Bonded to the base of the joint and both sides, sealant can’t stretch evenly.
Look out for the following:
- Bath and shower joints scraped during the final clean
- Inconsistent sealant finishes from plot to plot
- External joints sealed in damp or cold conditions that are now failing
- Cracks opening in caulked internal joints
Older buildings in the area around Ovington, such as Hinton Ampner House, 3.4 miles south-east of Ovington, need care when sealed: the product has to suit soft or historic materials.

What we can’t put right
A proper diagnosis includes knowing what sealant can’t do. We’ll tell you if the real problem is any of the following:
- Defective windows, doors or glazing units (the supplier or installer’s job)
- Oversized gaps that need packing or adjustment by others
- Rework caused by others damaging completed areas
Not sure which it is? You can phone 01277 525 020 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Internal decorators’ caulk
- Cladding and panel joints
- Floor and skirting junctions
- Window and door perimeters
- Brick and block movement joints
- Sanitary and kitchen joints
How the job changes by surface
Internal decorators’ caulk
Where the specification calls for it, acrylic decorators’ caulk goes on non-moving internal gaps before painting. It’s for gaps that stay still and get painted, and we use a flexible sealant where there’s movement.
Bathrooms, en suites and washrooms
In bathrooms and washrooms, an anti-mould sanitary silicone goes around every fitting. Each joint is prepared, sealed and finished with a neat tooled line and baths are loaded where appropriate before sealing.
