Surface by surface
Cladding and façade panels
Panel systems often rely on sealant between and around the panels. Each joint gets a sealant that suits the panel and its movement.
Brickwork movement joints
People sometimes point up a brick movement joint by mistake. Where one has been mortared, we cut it out and reseal it with sealant where it can be done safely.
How we handle external mastic in Church Crookham
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. We’re often asked to deal with movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant and weathered mastic that no longer stretches, across façade panels, concrete & block and copings & trims.
In a village or hamlet like Church Crookham, older cottages and farm buildings often stand in the open, where walls and rooflines take the weather head on. Gutter joints and wall joints there need a sealant that can flex and stay put.
Every job comes with a one-year guarantee, wherever you are in Hampshire.

Why deal with it now?
Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it locks the joint solid. The wall then cracks somewhere else. The correct repair is a flexible sealant with the right backing. Older cottages and farmhouses around Church Crookham can have timber floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
Every job is a little different, so we quote each one individually. Size, access and the product the joint needs all play a part.

Common problems we fix in Church Crookham
Some movement joints have been pointed up with mortar. The joint cannot move, so the wall cracks somewhere else instead.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Failed sealant between panels on a façade
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
- Cracked joints where brick meets render or frames
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
Homes close to Fleet Spiritualist Church include some older properties, and the joints between older walls, newer extensions and the roofline need a sealant that can move.

Quotes for external mastic in Church Crookham
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Working hours on commercial sites
- Whether the work is at height
- The type of sealant required
A few things move the cost up or down: how much old sealant there is and how stubborn it is, any mould to treat, and whether we need extra access for height. Your quote takes all of that into account.

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can tell us:
- Pictures of the joints, sent by email

A good description makes for an accurate quote. Let us know the location, the problem and roughly how many joints, and email photos if that is easy.
External mastic in Church Crookham: local notes
The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, though outdoor sealant still has to go onto a dry joint, so the forecast decides the day. Historic houses like Farnham Castle (about 3.5 miles south) are a reminder that the area around Church Crookham 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.
Letting a property close to Fleet station? Then split movement joints are easy to miss on a rental until damp shows inside. Managing a site like Velmead Junior School? Then its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.
