About our external mastic in Broad Street Green
External mastic is a job where short cuts show quickly. Overfilled joints, missing backing rod and sealant laid over old sealant all tend to fail early. We take the old material out and do it properly. If you have cracked joints where brick meets render or frames and leaking joints around cladding and façade panels, we can put it right, whatever the surface.
Around Broad Street Green, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
A 12-month guarantee comes with the work, just as it does everywhere we cover.

What happens on the day
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we are treating. Expect the work to take a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation, and we explain the cure time before we leave. In a small place like Broad Street Green, access is generally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- First, the joints are inspected and the access agreed.
- We cut out the old mastic and rake out anything in the joint.
- The faces are brushed clean and primed where the product requires it.
- We fit closed-cell backing rod to control the depth.
- The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.
How to prepare
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- Mention any sign-in or site rules at work premises
- Mention any leaks or damp you’ve noticed

What else we do in Broad Street Green
Your questions about external mastic in Broad Street Green
Will you come out to Broad Street Green?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Our work covers London and the South East. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Does the coastal weather in Broad Street Green affect outside sealant?
Near the sea, outside joints face more wind, rain and salt than they would inland, so preparation and the right sealant matter all the more. It’s worth checking the walls that face the sea first.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
Do you use backing rod?
Backing rod controls the sealant depth and keeps it off the back of the joint. That way it bonds to the two sides only and can stretch.
When will the joints need doing again?
That depends on the wall, the weather and the movement. Look for splits, hardening or edges coming away.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Doing several areas at once is normally more efficient.
What do you need from me for a quote?
Just the basics: where it is, what you’ve noticed and how we reach it. After that, simply call 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we are fully insured for domestic and commercial work.
Do you need external mastic in Broad Street Green?
Every building moves. Clay bricks expand slightly over their life, concrete and block shrink, and everything moves with temperature and wet. The sealant in the movement joints takes that strain.
Common reasons people contact us include:
- Leaking joints around cladding and façade panels
- Gaps where render, brick and frames meet
- Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
- Damp patches traced to an open external joint
For landlords with property near Witham station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

Landlord and commercial work in Broad Street Green
Hotels need rooms back in use, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.

Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding and façade panels
If the façade has a specified sealant, that’s what we use or an approved alternative. Send us any details you have about the façade.
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 so neither cracks the other.
Why deal with it now?
Done well, a resealed joint is a neat, straight line that suits the wall. A rushed bead with no backing looks untidy and does not last, so it pays to do it properly once. Around Broad Street Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, where water from a failed joint can cause rot if it’s left.
Some things make a job bigger or smaller: the old material and how easily it comes out, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. We take all of that into account in your quote.
Why us?
- Colour picked to suit the job
- White, clear, grey or coloured to suit, where the product allows
- Homes, businesses and hotels
- Full insurance on every job

Walls and rooflines in Broad Street Green
Broad Street Green is close to the coast, where wind-driven rain is a fact of life and, nearer the shore, so is salt air. That is hard on movement joints and outside wall joints, especially on the side facing the sea. Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Schools such as Heybridge Primary School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. Homes close to Church of St Peter include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple:
- Deal with leaking gutters that soak the joints below
- Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
- Point out the joints to other trades
- Do not let climbing plants root in the sealant
Have a quick look at the joints each spring. Watch for splits, edges coming away or growth in the joint.
An open movement joint lets rain into the wall every time it pours. That can lead to damp patches, staining and frost damage.
