External & façade joints in Battramsley, Hampshire
We cover Battramsley for sealing brickwork movement joints, render, cladding and façade joints. Old sealant removed completely, joints prepared properly.
- Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
- Panel joints letting water in
- Weeds or debris growing in open joints
Aftercare tips
No joint lasts for ever, but care makes a real difference. Our tips:
- Get split or bare joints resealed while the damage is small
- Look over the joints every year, ideally after winter
- Leave the joints unpainted unless we’ve said otherwise
- Clear growth from the base of walls and joints
Keep the joints clear of soil, plants and climbing growth. Anything that holds water against the joint wears it out sooner.
A joint that has stopped moving pushes the movement elsewhere, generally as cracking in the brickwork or render nearby. Catch it early and you reduce the risk.
External mastic in Battramsley
We are ARBOMaster approved applicators, and each external joint gets a sealant suited to it. Some surfaces need a primer before sealing and we use one wherever it does. We work on copings & trims, brickwork movement joints and render & cladding joints, and people most often call us about joints with sealant missing in places and panel joints letting water in.
Outside joints can only be sealed when they’re dry, so work in Battramsley is booked around the forecast. Let us know about access to every wall, plus any garages or outbuildings.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee, large or small.

Outside joints around Battramsley
Battramsley is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. Both are hard on movement joints and outside wall joints, which can dry out and crack sooner where a building faces the weather. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day.
Homes close to Church of St John include some older properties, and old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep. Letting a property close to Sway station? Then failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies. If you look after a building such as William Gilpin Church of England Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Why deal with it now?
Sealing over the top of old mastic doesn’t hold for long. New sealant doesn’t bond well to old, weathered sealant, so we always take the old sealant out. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Battramsley, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.

FAQs for Battramsley
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Sway station?
Yes, landlords and agents are among the people we work for, and several properties can be quoted together. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with the address and what needs doing, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is external mastic in a coastal place like Battramsley any different?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so the choice of sealant and the preparation matter even more. Walls facing the sea are normally the first to need attention.
Will it make a mess?
We keep the work tidy. We protect what’s around the joints, and we clear up when we are done.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. Commercial and hotel work is a large part of what we do, as well as homes. We can talk about working times when we quote.
What sealant do you use?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Movement, water and weather all affect the choice.
Can you quote for more than one area?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
How long will you be here?
As a guide, most jobs take a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. Larger jobs naturally take longer.
Do the sealants smell?
Sometimes, a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
What we can’t put right
It helps to know what we can’t do too:
- Damp from another source, such as a leaking gutter or a bridged damp-proof course
- Render that’s blown, hollow or coming away
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
If you are not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

- Brickwork movement joints
- Joints between brick and frames

What we do, step by step
Our applicators work methodically: protection first, then preparation, sealing and a tidy-up. For most jobs that takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. In a small place like Battramsley, access is usually the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First we look over the joints with you, agree which to renew and talk through access.
- 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.
- Closed-cell backing rod is fitted to set the depth and stop three-sided bonding.
- A flexible exterior sealant is applied and tooled in a colour to suit the wall.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the joints
- For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in
- Keep children and pets away from the work area

Different surfaces, different methods
Concrete and blockwork
Concrete and block walls shrink as they dry and move with temperature. We reseal their joints with backing rod and a flexible product.
Joints between dissimilar materials
Brick against render, concrete against metal, stone against timber: every change of material is a joint. We seal the joint with a flexible exterior sealant.
