About our external mastic in Curbridge
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. We work on copings & trims, brickwork movement joints and joints between brick and frames, and common reasons people get in touch are joints where the bead has come unstuck and moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left.
Around Curbridge, garages, outbuildings and extensions all add to the joints on the outside of a home. Gutter ends, garage door frames and the joints where an extension meets the house are typical spots for leaks.
Whatever the size of the job, you get the same one-year guarantee.

How we quote for external mastic
The quote reflects the job in front of us. We look at:
- Whether the work is at height
- The size of the job
- How many rooms, windows or areas are involved
- Working hours on commercial sites
No two jobs are quite the same, so each one gets its own quote. Size, access and the product the joint needs all make a difference, and we will explain the quote if you ask.
Helping us quote
What to tell us when you ask for a quote:
- The type of property
- The rough size of the job
- Where the job is, and your postcode
- 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, and add photos by email if you can.
Curbridge questions
Do you cover smaller places like Curbridge?
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 do external mastic in Curbridge?
Yes. Our work covers London and the South East, and Curbridge is part of that. Just call 0345 464 0079 or email us with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear quote.
Are you insured?
Yes. We’re fully insured, and we have been doing sealant work for more than 20 years.
What do you put in the joint?
We choose the sealant for the joint, not the other way round. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference, and we’ll explain our choice.
Do you hold any approvals?
Yes. We are approved under the ARBOMaster scheme, which is run for the Arbo sealant brand.
Why do you put foam in the joint first?
We fit closed-cell backing rod wherever the joint depth needs controlling. It sets the sealant depth and prevents three-sided bonding.
How long does the job take?
Typically it takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. Bigger jobs take longer.
Do I have to be there?
If the work is inside, we need someone to let us in. Once we have agreed the job, you do not need to watch us work.
Do you need external mastic in Curbridge?
Poor preparation causes many early failures: joint faces that were dusty or damp, unprimed where they needed it, or still carrying old sealant. The new sealant then lets go long before it should.
If you can see any of these, it’s time to have the joints looked at:
- Joints with sealant missing in places
- Cracked joints where brick meets render or frames
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
- Sealant pulling away from one side of the joint
Around Curbridge, as everywhere, external mastic is only as good as the preparation behind it.
What to look for in a quote
- How the surfaces are prepared before sealing
- What happens if they find a problem under the old sealant
- When the joint can take water or movement
- How much experience the applicator has
What happens if it’s left?
A failed movement joint lets water into the wall and can run behind render or cladding. Dealing with it early keeps the repair to the joint, instead of the wall and finishes around it. Around Curbridge, water from a failed joint in an older home can soak into timber and plaster, which is far harder to put right than the sealant itself.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs, plus any working-time requirements on site. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

Walls and rooflines in Curbridge
London and the South East are among the drier parts of the UK, yet outdoor joints still have to be sealed dry, so jobs are booked with the weather in mind.
If you let a flat or house near Botley station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

What we do, step by step
A visit follows a simple pattern: we look at the joints together, protect the area around them, carry out the job and clear up. It generally takes a few hours for a handful of joints, longer for a whole elevation. Parking around Curbridge is normally easier than in a town centre, but mention any lanes, gates or long drives. For outside work, side access and the height of the joints help us plan.
- We look at every joint and agree a colour to suit the wall.
- Failed sealant is removed back to clean, sound faces.
- 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.
Getting ready for the visit
- For indoor joints, keep the area dry beforehand if you can
- Mention any parking rules near the property
- Tell us about any previous sealing or DIY attempts

How to look after the new joints
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Make sure movement joints are not pointed over
- Avoid pressure-washing directly into sealant joints
- Check the sealant is paintable before painting near it
- Act on the first splits you see
If you have more work done on the wall, such as new render, cladding or an opening, show the contractor the movement joints. They should be kept open and resealed, not filled.
Gaps, plants or missing sealant in a joint are worth getting looked at. Early work is quicker and leaves a better finish.
