About our external mastic in Broughton
We’re 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. If you have moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left and gaps where render, brick and frames meet, we can put it right.
Older homes in small places like Broughton may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Each job carries a 12-month guarantee.

What happens if it’s left?
Done well, a resealed joint is a neat, straight line that suits the wall. A hurried job with smeared edges and no backing looks worse and fails sooner so it’s worth doing right. Around Broughton, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.

When to call us in Broughton
Using the wrong sealant is another common reason. A high-modulus or general-purpose sealant can be too rigid for a busy joint, so it pulls away from the edges.
Any of these means the joints need attention:
- Old sealant gone brittle and cracked
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
- Leaking joints around cladding and façade panels
- Water getting into walls through failed joints
If you look after a building such as Bishop Carpenter Church of England Aided Primary School, larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.

Broughton: your questions answered
Can you help a landlord with a rental near Banbury station?
Yes, rental work is part of what we do. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us and tell us about the property, and we will send you a clear quote.
Is Broughton within the area you cover?
Yes, we do. We work across London and the South East, and smaller places are part of that. Longer journeys are simply planned in advance.
Can you seal joints between two different materials?
Yes. Different materials move at different rates, so a flexible sealant is needed where they meet. The sealant is matched to both sides.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Of course. Combining jobs makes good use of the visit.
Do you do commercial work?
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.
Will it make a mess?
Tidy work is part of the job. We protect what’s around the joints.
What is backing rod for?
Backing rod controls the sealant depth and keeps it off the back of the joint. Then the sealant bonds to two faces and can move.
Will there be a smell?
There can be a smell while the sealant cures. Ventilation helps.
How the visit works
All our tools and materials come with us in the van, so there’s nothing for you to buy. After a quick look at the joints together, the area is protected and the work begins. Most jobs take a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. For a village or hamlet like Broughton, the journey is planned in advance: let us know about lanes, gates and parking. We bring what the job needs, so it can be finished in one trip where possible.
- We start by walking round the building and agreeing the joints and the access.
- Every bit of old sealant and any mortar or debris is cut out.
- Joint faces are cleaned back and primed if the sealant needs it.
- We fit closed-cell backing rod to control the depth.
- The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.
Before we arrive
- Clear items away from the joints we’re working on
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Where the joints are inside, avoid wetting them before we arrive

What we cannot put right
To be straight with you, there are a few things sealant will not fix:
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
- Adding movement joints to masonry that has none
- Movement that is more than a sealant joint can take
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Joints and surfaces we work on
- Brickwork movement joints
- Façade panels
- Render & cladding joints
- Copings & trims
- Joints between brick and frames

Can I do it myself?
If you’ve already had a go yourself, that is fine. We remove it and do the joint properly, so just mention it when you contact us.
Some sealant jobs are within reach of a careful DIYer, like a short, easy-to-reach joint indoors. The common mistakes are sealing over old sealant, sealing a damp joint and using far too much.
How we quote for external mastic
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How easy the joints are to reach
- The old material and how stubborn it is
- Working hours on commercial sites
- The number of rooms or windows
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: how much there is to do, how we reach it and what it needs. Ask us for a quote and we will explain what it covers.
Asking for a quote
You don’t need to know the technical terms. It helps if you can tell us:
- The type of property
- Any access issues, like height or stairs
- Where the property is
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email
The more we know about the job, the more useful the quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints.
What external mastic looks like in Broughton
Historic houses like Broughton Castle (about 0.3 miles south-west) are a reminder that the area around Broughton 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. 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.
Rented homes near Banbury station change hands often, and split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside. Homes close to Church of St Mary the Virgin include some older properties, and older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant.
