Coxtie Green buildings and the weather
With historic houses such as Hare Hall (about 4.3 miles south-west) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Coxtie Green as well as newer homes. Where a home is older, older brick and stone need a sealant that suits them, at the right joint depth. 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.
Rented homes near Brentwood station change hands often, and failed wall and movement joints let damp in, so they’re worth checking between tenancies. Schools such as Becket Keys Church of England School are buildings too, and its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s. In the older streets around Trinity Church, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Ground-floor and low-level joints are straightforward to reach. For joints higher up, give us some details of the building and we will confirm what access is needed.

Older homes in small places like Coxtie Green may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. Where one material meets another is where water generally gets in, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.

Quotes for external mastic in Coxtie Green
Call for a quick quote. The main things that affect it are:
- Whether there’s mould to deal with
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
- Any working-time requirements on site
Instead of a standard rate, we look at what your job involves: the amount of work, the old material and the access. You will know the price before we begin.
What we need to know
Before you ask for a quote, have a think about:
- What the problem is, such as mould, gaps, leaks or cracking
- The type of property
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- Access, such as stairs, a lift or height
If you are in Coxtie Green and need external mastic, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email. Tell us what the problem is and where, and you will get a clear quote before any work starts.
Keeping the joints in good condition
After the cure time, these simple habits help:
- Have failed joints looked at early
- Walk round the building once a year and look at the joints
- Ask before painting over external sealant
- Keep water from gutters off the wall
Make sure anyone working on the wall later knows where the movement joints are. They must stay as flexible joints, never rendered or pointed over.
Water getting behind cladding or render can go unnoticed for a long time. When it finally shows inside, the joint may have been open for years.
Why act early in Coxtie Green
Running new sealant over the old bead rarely lasts. New sealant doesn’t bond well to old, weathered sealant, so we always take the old sealant out. Around Coxtie Green, older homes often have timber in their floors and frames, and water through a failed joint can rot timber if it’s left.
The cost depends on the size of the job, how hard the old material is to remove and access to the work. We give a clear quote before we start.

- We’re fully insured
- A 12-month guarantee on all work

Should I try it myself first?
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas need the right product, the right access and the right method.
If you do try it yourself, take your time over the preparation: remove every trace of old sealant, clean and dry the joint, and follow the product’s cure time. If it does not work out, we can still put it right.

How the visit works
When we arrive, we look over the joints with you first. Surfaces next to the work are protected before any work begins.

- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- We take out the old sealant until the faces are sound.
- Closed-cell backing rod is pushed in so the sealant bonds to two sides only.
- We prime the faces where required.

Honest advice matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what sealant can’t fix:
- Subsidence or other structural problems
- Damp that is not coming from the joint
- Render that is blown, hollow or coming away
