External mastic for Axmansford homes and businesses

Outside joints around Axmansford

With historic houses such as The Vyne (about 4.9 miles south-east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Axmansford as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.

Letting a property close to Midgham station? Then outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. If you live in an older home near Church of St Stephen, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain. Schools such as The Hurst School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

External mastic for homes and businesses in Axmansford

For buildings in Axmansford, we reseal external joints of all kinds, from brick movement joints to cladding panels. Every joint gets the same careful preparation: clean joint faces and the right depth. Common call-outs are for joints where the bead has come unstuck and hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving, across render & cladding joints, concrete & block and copings & trims.

Somewhere as small as Axmansford, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, so walls and rooflines take the full force of wind and rain. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.

You’re covered for a year from the day we finish. If anything is not right with it, call 0345 464 0079 or email us.

How we quote for external mastic

We do not publish a price list, because jobs vary so much. The quote depends on:

  • The type of sealant required
  • When we can work, for business premises
  • How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
  • The size of the job

Rather than a set price list, we price the job in front of us: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

Asking for a quote

The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. When you ask for a quote, tell us:

  • Where the property is
  • Any previous sealing or DIY work
  • Any access issues, like height or stairs
  • If it’s domestic, commercial or a hotel

Call for a quick quote, or send an email if you’d rather. Tell us about the joints that need doing and we will explain what’s involved before giving you a price.

What we do, step by step

There’s no need to move everything out before we come, just the space around the work. We protect the rest, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building in most cases. Somewhere like Axmansford needs a little journey planning: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.

  1. We inspect the joints and agree which need resealing and how they’ll be reached.
  2. We cut out the failed sealant and rake out any dirt or growth.
  3. We clean both faces of the joint and prime them where the product calls for it.
  4. We push in closed-cell backing rod so the sealant is the right depth and bonds to the sides only.
  5. The new sealant, chosen to suit the brick or render, is applied and tooled to a neat finish.

Preparing for the visit

  • Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints
  • Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
  • Mention any parking rules near the property

Your questions about external mastic in Axmansford

Do you work for landlords with property near Midgham station?

Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and tell us about the property, and we will give you a clear price.

Is Axmansford within the area you cover?

Yes. Axmansford is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the route when you book.

Do you work for hotels and businesses?

Yes. We have worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we are fully insured.

How often do external joints need resealing?

It varies from wall to wall: sunny, exposed elevations and busy joints wear faster. A yearly look will tell you when they need doing. Every job carries our 12-month guarantee.

Is there any odour?

There can be a smell while the sealant cures, but it fades. Opening a window helps.

Do I have to be there?

For indoor joints, yes, someone needs to let us in. After that, you can carry on with your day.

Can you reach joints on upper floors?

It depends on the height and the site. Low-level joints are straightforward; for higher work, tell us about the building and we will confirm what’s needed.

Can you seal over the old sealant?

No, and we never do. It can look neat for a few weeks, but the new layer lifts away from the old one. Removing the old sealant completely is the only lasting way.

Aftercare tips

So the new joints stay in good condition:

  • Get split or bare joints resealed while the damage is small
  • Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
  • Wash walls gently around the sealant
  • Make sure movement joints are not pointed over

Do not paint over the new sealant unless we’ve said the product is paintable. Many exterior sealants aren’t designed to be painted.

An open movement joint lets rain into the wall every time it pours. That can lead to damp patches, staining and frost damage, all bigger jobs than a reseal.

What we can’t put right

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:

  • Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
  • Subsidence or other structural problems
  • Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away

If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Where we work in Axmansford

  • Copings & trims
  • Joints between brick and frames
  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Façade panels
  • Concrete & block
  • Render & cladding joints

Leave it or put it right?

Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it stops the joint moving. The wall then cracks somewhere else. The correct repair is a flexible sealant with the right backing. Around Axmansford, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

We do not show prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a quick quote.

DIY versus a professional finish

If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so tell us about it when you ask for a quote.

Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
