FAQs: Deadwater
Is Deadwater off your patch?
No. Small places get the same service as large ones. Our area covers London and the South East counties. We plan jobs in smaller places so return trips are kept to a minimum.
We manage a building near Liphook station. Can you help?
Yes. Managing agents, landlords, property factors and housing associations are who this service is for. Send the address, photos of the elevations and your access arrangements, and we will give a fixed quote.
Will you just go over the old sealant?
No. Overlaying old sealant is a frequent cause of early failure, so everything comes out first.
When is resealing likely to be due?
Nobody can honestly give a figure in years, since movement, weather, cleaning and use all affect it. Regular checks let you plan resealing before leaks or damage.
Can you seal joints high up on a block?
Every block is different. How upper joints are reached is agreed before work is booked so the fixed quote reflects it.
Can you plan resealing across several buildings?
Yes. Each building is inspected, quoted and scheduled in turn starting wherever is most urgent.
How many days will you need on site?
We plan the time on site around your programme and access. We will give you an estimate of time on site when we quote.
Mastic sealing in Deadwater, done properly
Mastic Doctor has sealed joints on commercial and residential blocks since 2005. Our applicators are CSCS-carded and we hold public liability insurance. Each building we complete carries a 12-month guarantee on our workmanship. If you have draughts at frames across a block and communal area joints that look neglected, we can put it right, whatever the surface. Whoever orders the work in Deadwater, the brief is usually the same: a clear scope, tidy work and joints that don’t fail again.
Owners with buildings around smaller places like Deadwater often group mastic work so one visit covers several properties. One quote can cover a whole list of addresses.
A 12-month guarantee applies to all our work. Should something we installed fail, give us a call on 01277 525 020 or email a schedule or drawings and we will come back to it.

After the work
Once the work is signed off, these steps help:
- Look at the sunniest and most exposed elevations first
- Mention RAMS, insurance or CSCS requirements up front
- Protect low-level joints in entrances
- Track which buildings were done and when
Protect entrance and corridor joints from knocks where possible. Damage at low level is the most common reason communal joints fail early.
The longer failed joints are left, the more likely the substrate edges break up. Once that happens, repairs come before resealing.

Commercial clients in Deadwater
Housing associations and managing agents often need work done across blocks and communal areas. We phase the work so people keep access, with each stage agreed with your site contact.
FMs need a contractor who is easy to get on site. Let us know the documents you need (RAMS, insurance certificate, CSCS details) and we will confirm them with the quote.
What we can’t put right
Honesty saves time and money. Fresh joints won’t solve:
- Roof leaks, gutters or failed flashings that aren’t sealant joints
- Substrate edges that need repairing first
- Leaks through the frame itself rather than the perimeter
If in doubt, ring 01277 525 020 or send details through our quote form and we will say what we think before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Shopfronts below residential blocks
- Balcony and threshold joints
- Communal kitchens and washrooms
- Communal entrances and stairwells
- Window and door perimeters on blocks
- External wall and movement joints
Different surfaces, different methods
Communal areas
We keep entrances and stairs open throughout. Work is planned in sections.
Tenement and older buildings
Some old mastics in pre-2000 buildings contain asbestos, so we check the asbestos register or survey first. If it’s suspected, work stops until it’s tested.
Diagnose, treat, sign off
When we get to site, we sign in, go through any site induction and check how permits are handled. Floors, finishes and fittings next to the joints are covered before any cutting starts, and the work normally takes a day or two for a single block, longer for an estate programme. For a site in Deadwater, we plan so the whole job is done in one go where possible. Photos with rough sizes let us arrive with everything needed.
- First we look at the mastic on each building and note what needs replacing.
- You get a fixed quote, priced per building where that helps your budgeting.
- Dates, areas and access are agreed so residents or tenants can be told in advance.
- Failed mastic is removed and the faces taken back to sound, dry material.
- Backing rod and primer go in as the joint requires, then the new bead is placed and tooled.
- Each building is checked on completion and the work carries our 12-month guarantee.
What we need from you
- Tell us which areas need to stay in use
- Share the asbestos register for older buildings
- Have the specification and drawings to hand

Frames, entrances and external joints in Deadwater
Deadwater is in the South East, one of the UK’s drier regions. External mastic still waits for dry faces and the right temperature, and south- and west-facing elevations, which take the most sun and rain, often age first. Deadwater is about 42 miles from central London. Commuter-belt towns tend to have plenty of managed blocks near stations and town centres.
For agents with blocks near Liphook station, which lies south-east of Deadwater, a block-wide mastic programme deals with frames, balconies and entrances in one go. If your remit includes a building such as Mill Chase Academy, frame and door mastic can be programmed for the holidays. Property owners at sites such as Woolmer Trading Estate, 0.7 miles to the west of Deadwater, can have mastic renewed between lettings.
