External mastic in Church Enstone
Failed sealant is cut out, the depth set with closed-cell backing rod, and the joint resealed with a low-modulus sealant made for outside. We pick a colour that sits well with the wall. We’re often asked to deal with hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving and cracked joints where brick meets render or frames, on brickwork movement joints, concrete & block and façade panels.
Around Church Enstone, older buildings can be stone, brick or timber-framed, many with extensions added later. Where one material meets another is where water usually gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.
Big or small, it’s backed by our one-year guarantee.

External mastic in Church Enstone: local notes
Compared with the north and west, the South East gets less rain, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
In the older streets around Church of St Kenelm, older walls, gutters and the joints where extensions meet them need a flexible sealant. If you let a flat or house near Charlbury station, failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies.

What happens on the day
We bring everything the job needs with us, so you do not need to buy or prepare anything. Once we’ve agreed what’s being done, we protect the area and start. It normally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building. In a small place like Church Enstone, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.
- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- We take out the old sealant until the faces are sound.
- Backing rod goes in so the sealant can stretch between the two faces.
- Primer is applied wherever the sealant needs it.
- We gun in low-modulus sealant and tool it neatly.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know if you’ve seen damp or leaks
- Keep pets and children clear of the area while we work
- On commercial sites, let us know about site rules

Do you need external mastic in Church Enstone?
UV, rain and frost all age exterior sealant. In time it goes hard, crazes on the surface and stops stretching, so the joint eventually tears or comes away from one side.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Failed sealant between panels on a façade
- Water getting into walls through failed joints
- Hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving
- Failed seals between different materials
Schools such as Enstone Primary School are buildings too, and movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s.
Questions to ask before you book
- Which colour the sealant will be
- Is VAT in the price?
- How the joint is cleaned and prepared
- Which sealant they’ll use, and why
For landlords and businesses

We also work for property managers and facilities teams. We can quote a run of properties together, and we’re fully insured.
Different surfaces, different methods
Cladding and façade panels
Panels heat up and cool down quickly, so the joint sealant has to cope with frequent movement. We choose the product to suit.
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.
What happens if it’s left?
Water gets in through a failed movement joint. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint, instead of the wall and finishes around it. Where a wall is exposed, as many are in small places like Church Enstone, wind-driven rain gets into any failed joint, and damp in older walls is slow to dry out.
The cost reflects the work involved, not guesswork. That is why we ask a few questions first and agree the price before starting.

Honest limits
In fairness, there are a few things sealant won’t fix:
- Damp from another source, such as a leaking gutter or a bridged damp-proof course
- Movement that is more than a sealant joint can take
- Loose or hollow render, which needs re-rendering

Is it worth trying it myself?
It depends on the job. Work at height, movement joints, fire-rated gaps and large areas are best left to a professional, while a short indoor joint may be within reach.
Do you seal joints where cladding meets other materials?
Yes. The old joint is removed, both surfaces cleaned and primed where needed, and a flexible sealant applied. We pick a colour that works with both materials.
