External & façade joints in Bar End, Hampshire
We cover Bar End for sealing brickwork movement joints, render, cladding and façade joints. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.
- Rigid filler in a joint that should flex
- Leaking joints around cladding and façade panels
- Old sealant gone brittle and cracked
External mastic in Bar End, done properly
We cut out failed sealant, set the joint depth with closed-cell backing rod and reseal with a low-modulus exterior sealant. We pick a colour that sits well with the wall. We work on concrete & block, copings & trims and render & cladding joints, and people most often call us about joints with sealant missing in places and damp patches traced to an open external joint.
Older homes in small places like Bar End may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water normally gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
We guarantee the work for a year. If there’s a problem with our work within the year, let us know and we will sort it.

Common questions in Bar End
Will you come out to Bar End?
Yes. Bar End is within the area we cover, which takes in towns, villages and rural addresses. We work across London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
I let a flat near Winchester station. Can you help?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the details for a clear quote.
How long will you be here?
Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. Larger jobs naturally take longer, and we’ll say how long yours will take.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes, regularly. Larger jobs can be planned room by room or area by area to suit the site.
Can you seal joints between two different materials?
Yes. We cut out the old sealant, prepare both faces and reseal with a flexible exterior product. The colour is chosen to suit.
Where do you work from?
We are a Crawley-based firm, with over 20 years’ experience. Our area covers South East England, London and Scotland.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice, and we will explain our choice.
Do you use backing rod?
Backing rod goes into deeper joints as a matter of course. It sets the sealant depth and prevents three-sided bonding, so the joint can move.

Quotes for external mastic in Bar End
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Any working-time requirements on site
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The size of the job
No two jobs are quite the same, so we quote each one individually. The number of joints, how easy they are to reach and the sealant needed all play a part, and we’ll explain the quote if you ask.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to know:
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
- What’s wrong with the joints now
- The type of property
We quote each job on its own. Simply phone 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email and describe the job.
Why act early in Bar End
Water gets in through a failed movement joint. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint, instead of the wall and finishes around it. In a small place like Bar End, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and older walls, once damp, take a long time to dry.
We do not show prices on the website, because the cost depends so much on the job itself. Call for a quick quote.

When it is not the sealant
We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Adding movement joints to masonry that has none
- Movement that’s more than a sealant joint can take
- Loose or hollow render, which needs re-rendering
If you are not sure, just call 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Surfaces we seal
- Brickwork movement joints
- Façade panels
- Concrete & block
- Joints between brick and frames
- Copings & trims
- Render & cladding joints
What the job involves on each surface
Brickwork movement joints
People sometimes point up a brick movement joint by mistake. Where one has been mortared, we cut it out and reseal it with sealant.
Render joints
Render is weaker at the surface than brick, so a low-modulus sealant is kinder to the joint edges. We prime where the product needs it.

What we do, step by step
There is not much for you to do on the day. Point us to the joints and we will get on with it. The job generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building from start to finish. In a small place like Bar End, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- Each joint is checked and the colour of the new sealant agreed.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- We prime the faces where required.
- A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.
Getting ready for the visit
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises

Related advice
DIY sealant or a professional job?
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions.
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that’s fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Bar End buildings and the weather
Rainfall in the South East is lower than in much of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In the older streets around All Saints, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Managing a site like All Saints Church of England Primary School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. Letting a property close to Winchester station? Then failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies.
