About our external mastic in Berghers Hill
Ground-floor and low-level joints are straightforward to reach. Where joints are higher up, tell us about the building when you get in touch and we’ll confirm what access is needed. We work on joints between brick and frames, copings & trims and render & cladding joints, and common reasons people get in touch are sealant pulling away from one side of the joint and rigid filler in a joint that should flex.
In a village or hamlet like Berghers Hill, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, 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.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

Outside joints around Berghers Hill
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. Historic houses like Cliveden (about 1.7 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Berghers Hill 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.
For landlords with property near Bourne End station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. Homes close to Church of St Paul include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We cut it out and start again, so just mention it when you contact us.
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and getting the depth right matters as much as the look.
When to call us in Berghers Hill
Poor preparation causes many early failures: joint faces that were dusty or damp, unprimed where they needed it, or still carrying old sealant. The new sealant then lets go long before it should.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant
- Old sealant gone brittle and cracked
- Sealant that has lost its bond to the brick or render
- Panel joints letting water in
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Wooburn Green Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.
What your quote should include
- How much experience the applicator has
- Are they insured?
- Whether VAT is included
- Which colour the sealant will be
Aftercare tips
So the new joints stay in good condition:
- Do not let climbing plants root in the sealant
- Keep high-pressure jets off the joints
- Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
- Point out the joints to other trades
If you have more work done on the wall, such as new render, cladding or an opening, show the contractor the movement joints. They should be kept open and resealed, not filled.
Gaps, plants or missing sealant in a joint are worth getting looked at. Earlier resealing means a smaller job and a better result.

Questions from Berghers Hill
Can you do external mastic in Berghers Hill?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and Berghers Hill is part of that. You can ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and let us know what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Bourne End station?

When is the sealant fully cured?
Different products cure at different speeds, so follow the cure time we give you when we finish.
Should I point up the gap in my brickwork?
No. Rigid materials cannot move with the wall, so the joint stops doing its job. If it has already been filled, we can usually cut it out and reseal it.
What does external mastic cost?
Size, access and the old material all affect the cost. Call for a quick quote and we will talk you through it.
Are you an approved applicator?
Yes. We hold ARBOMaster approved applicator status.
Is it worth trying it myself?
You can, for simple jobs. The key is preparation: remove all the old material and work on a clean, dry joint. If it does not work out, we can redo it.
Do I need to be at home?
Access is agreed with you when the job is booked. For inside work, that normally means someone being in.
