External mastic in Bramshott
Getting the depth right is half the job. Backing rod controls how deep the sealant goes and keeps it off the back of the joint, leaving it bonded to two faces so it can move with the wall. Common call-outs are for moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left and hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving, on concrete & block, render & cladding joints and joints between brick and frames.
External sealant needs dry, clean surfaces, so work around Bramshott is planned for dry weather. Tell us about access to all sides of the building, including outbuildings and garages.
A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once the job is done.

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the joints looking good and working properly:
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
- Make sure movement joints aren’t pointed over
- Ask before painting over external sealant
- Do not let climbing plants root in the sealant
Only paint over the joint if we have confirmed the sealant can take paint. Many exterior sealants aren’t designed to be painted.
Gaps, plants or missing sealant in a joint are worth getting looked at. Early work is quicker and leaves a better finish.
Surface by surface
Brickwork movement joints
Clay brickwork grows slightly over its life and moves with the weather. That movement goes into the joint, so its sealant has to stay flexible.
Render joints
Cracks along render joints let water in behind the coat. Resealing the joints early keeps water out and protects the render itself.
Common problems we fix in Bramshott
The wrong product in a moving joint is a classic cause. A stiff, general-purpose sealant can’t cope with a joint that moves a lot, and it tears off the sides.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- Panel joints letting water in
- Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
- Water getting into walls through failed joints
- Weeds or debris growing in open joints
For site and facilities teams at buildings such as Liphook Infant School, movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.

Letting a property close to Liphook station? Then failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies. If you live in an older home near Church of St Mary, the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Should I try DIY first?
For a simple, easy-to-reach joint, a careful DIYer can do a reasonable job. The usual mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using too much.
How long does external mastic take?
Typically it takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access. Bigger jobs take longer.
Do the sealants smell?
Possibly a little. Any smell clears as the sealant cures.
What sealant do you use?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we will explain our choice.
Why do you put foam in the joint first?
We fit closed-cell backing rod wherever the joint depth needs controlling. It controls the depth and stops the sealant bonding to the back so the bead can stretch.
Do you work at height?
That depends on how high the joints are and the ground below. Ground-floor joints are simple; for higher ones, send details and we will confirm the access.
Can I do it myself?
The biggest DIY mistake is sealing over old sealant. Silicone doesn’t stick to old silicone, so it lifts and traps water and mould underneath. Everything old must be removed first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
What happens on the day
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. The job usually takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. Somewhere as small as Bramshott, access is often the only tricky part. For outside work, also let us know about exposed walls and any outbuildings involved.
- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
- A low-modulus exterior sealant is gunned in and tooled to a neat finish.
How to prepare
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules
- Mention any tricky access
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
