DIY sealant or a professional job?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.
A careful DIYer can reseal a simple joint, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. Where it goes wrong is sealing over the old bead, working on a wet joint or overloading the gap.
External mastic in Anna Valley, done properly
Short cuts in external joints show up within a season or two. Overfilled joints, missing backing rod and sealant laid over old sealant rarely last long. We strip the joint back and start again. We work on façade panels, copings & trims and concrete & block, and people most often call us about weathered mastic that no longer stretches and panel joints letting water in.
Older homes in small places like Anna Valley may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, in Anna Valley and everywhere else we cover.

Different surfaces, different methods
Brickwork movement joints
Brick movement joints are often mistaken for a missing mortar line. If that’s happened, we rake it out and reseal it properly if the joint can be cleared.
Concrete and blockwork
Wide joints in concrete need the depth controlling carefully. Backing rod sized to the joint sets it and keep the sealant to the right depth.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we check the joints, protect the area around them, carry out the job and tidy away. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. In a small place like Anna Valley, access is normally the main thing to plan. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We inspect the joints and agree which need resealing and how they’ll be reached.
- We cut out the failed sealant and rake out any dirt or growth.
- The joint faces are cleaned and primed where the sealant needs it.
- Backing rod goes in next, setting the depth and keeping the sealant off the back of the joint.
- We gun in a flexible exterior sealant in a colour that suits the wall and tool it neatly.
How to prepare
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Mention any tricky access
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

Advice
Anna Valley buildings and the weather
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
In the older streets around Church of All Saints, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move. Managing a site like Balksbury Junior School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. If you let a flat or house near Andover station, split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside.

Keeping the joints in good condition
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. A few tips:
- Keep high-pressure jets off the joints
- Make sure movement joints are not pointed over
- Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
- Do not let climbing plants root in the sealant
Have a quick look at the joints each spring. Splits, gaps at the edges or plants in the joint are early warning signs.
An open movement joint lets rain into the wall every time it pours. That can lead to damp patches, staining and frost damage which cost more to put right than the joint.
When it is not the sealant
Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what new sealant won’t do:
- Loose or hollow render, which needs re-rendering
- Damp that is not coming from the joint
- Cracked brickwork or render that needs a builder or plasterer
If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

Can new sealant go over the old?
No. Fresh sealant does not stick to old sealant, and it traps any mould or water underneath. We remove it all first.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, so we never do it.
When will the joints need doing again?
That varies with the weather the wall faces, how much it moves and the sealant used. Sealant is a maintenance item, so check the joints once a year.
