Different surfaces, different methods
Copings and trims
Metal and stone copings both move with temperature, so the joints need a sealant that stays flexible year round.
Cladding and façade panels
Cladding and façade panels are generally separated by sealed joints. Each joint gets a sealant that suits the panel and its movement.
External mastic in Aldington Frith, done properly
We cut out failed sealant, set the joint depth with closed-cell backing rod and reseal with a low-modulus exterior sealant. The colour is chosen to suit the brick or render. We are often asked to deal with panel joints letting water in and water getting into walls through failed joints, across render & cladding joints, concrete & block and façade panels.
Around Aldington Frith, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Your job is guaranteed for a year, as with all our work.

We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- Each joint is checked and the colour of the new sealant agreed.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.

Advice
Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, such as a straightforward joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
What happens if it’s left?
A low-modulus sealant is chosen because it moves without pulling hard at the edges. That matters on brick, render and concrete, which can be weaker at the face. Too stiff a sealant can pull at the edges and break them. Around Aldington Frith, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so each one gets its own quote. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all make a difference.

What we are called out for in Aldington Frith
Sometimes a movement joint was filled with mortar or a rigid filler. The joint cannot move, so the wall cracks somewhere else instead.
Most people get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render
- Weeds or debris growing in open joints
- Cracked joints where brick meets render or frames
- Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
Rented homes near Ham Street station change hands often, and split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.
What to look for in a quote
- How hidden problems are handled
- How long to leave it before use
- How much experience the applicator has
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
For landlords and businesses
We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we are fully insured for the work.
Water getting past a failed joint can damage the building, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Resealing at the right time is simple maintenance.
