About our external mastic in Bedham
We’re ARBOMaster approved applicators, and each external joint gets a sealant suited to it. Some surfaces need a primer before sealing. We work on brickwork movement joints, render & cladding joints and joints between brick and frames, and the jobs we see most are weeds or debris growing in open joints and leaking joints around cladding and façade panels.
Somewhere as small as Bedham, homes and farm buildings often face open ground, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
We stand behind the work with a one-year guarantee, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

- Movement that is more than a sealant joint can take

What else we do in Bedham
Different surfaces, different methods
Copings and trims
Joints in copings, parapets and trims are exposed to the worst of the weather. Each is resealed with a weatherproof, flexible sealant.
Render joints
Water behind render can lead to blown patches. A sound joint keeps the render dry behind.
Bedham buildings and the weather
Historic houses like Old Place Manor (about 2.2 miles east) are a reminder that the area around Bedham has older buildings as well as new. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material. 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.
If you live in an older home near The Parish Church of St Mary, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. If you let a flat or house near Pulborough station, split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside. Schools such as Fittleworth CofE Village School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

Around Bedham
Locally, jobs take us to homes and businesses close to The Swan Hotel. The nearest railway station is Pulborough station, roughly 2.1 miles south-east. A little further out are Coates Castle (1.9 miles south-west) and Coultershaw Heritage Site (2.5 miles west). The countryside around Bedham includes The Mens and Bignor Hill.
Why act early in Bedham
A failed movement joint lets water into the wall. Resealing early keeps the job to the joint itself, rather than the wall around it. In a small place like Bedham, homes can be exposed to wind and rain, which finds any gap, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: how many joints, what’s in them now and how we reach them. The price is agreed before we begin.

How it works
There’s no need to move everything out, only the area right around the joints. Everything nearby is protected, and the work takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building in most cases. In a small place like Bedham, access is usually 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.
- We take out the old sealant until the faces are sound.
- Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
- We prime the faces where required.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.
How to prepare
- Let us know about stairs, lifts or work at height
- Let us know about parking restrictions
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

Advice
Keeping the joints in good condition
Aftercare is simple:
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
- Ask before painting over external sealant
- Wash walls gently around the sealant
- Make sure movement joints aren’t pointed over
Only paint over the joint if we have confirmed the sealant can take paint. Paint can crack on a flexible joint.
Small splits are the time to act. At that stage it’s a simple cut out and reseal.
Landlord and commercial work in Bedham
From a single let to a portfolio, you get the same standard of work: the old material taken out, careful preparation and a 12-month guarantee.
We work for landlords and agents as well as householders. Sealant work between tenants keeps a property looking cared for.
How we quote for external mastic
Jobs vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Which sealant suits the joint
- How much old sealant there is and how hard it is to remove
- The amount of work
A failed joint rarely gets cheaper to fix by waiting, as water and mould keep getting in. If you are not sure whether it needs doing, call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email for an honest opinion and a quote.
What to tell us for a quote
You do not need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
- How many joints, rooms or windows are involved
- If someone has resealed it before
- The problem you’ve noticed
Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location and its rough size. Photos by email help us understand the job.
Bedham questions
Do you cover Bedham for external mastic?
Yes, Bedham is within the area we cover. Our work covers London and the South East. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job.
Do you work for landlords with property near Pulborough station?
Yes, we work for letting agents and landlords. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and a few details, and we will give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Will you leave a mess?
Not at all. The area is protected while we work and cleaned up afterwards.
What should I tell you?
The location, the problem and the rough size of the job. If you can, email a few photos.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes. Sealing over old sealant is the main reason resealing fails early, and it’s something we never do.
How much does external mastic cost in Bedham?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Ask us for a quote.
Is it OK to fill a movement joint with cement?
No. Mortar locks the joint solid, so the wall cracks somewhere else instead. It needs a flexible sealant over backing rod.
How do you reach high-level joints?
It depends on the building. Send us pictures and a rough idea of the height.
