External mastic in Curbridge

On houses, flats and commercial buildings across Curbridge, we reseal joints in brickwork, render, cladding and façade panels. Every joint gets the same careful preparation: clean, sound faces and a controlled depth. We work on joints between brick and frames, façade panels and render & cladding joints, and people most often call us about damp patches traced to an open external joint and weathered mastic that no longer stretches.

Older homes in small places like Curbridge may be stone, brick or timber-framed, often with later extensions. The joints where those materials meet are the weak points, and they need the right sealant at the right depth.

You get a one-year guarantee, the same in Curbridge as everywhere else we work.

DIY sealant or a professional job?

Some jobs are best left to a professional: high-level joints, fire-rated gaps, external movement joints and big jobs need the right product, the right access and the right method.

Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. New silicone will not bond to old, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. All the old material has to come out first.

External mastic in Curbridge: local notes

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. With historic houses such as Minster Lovell Hall (about 1.8 miles north) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around Curbridge as well as newer homes. In older buildings, older walls and rooflines need a sealant that moves with them and suits the material.

In the older streets around Church of St John the Baptist, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

Curbridge is about 2 miles south-west of Witney, in Oxfordshire. Curbridge gets the same service as everywhere we cover: the old material taken out, joints prepared properly and a 12-month guarantee.

Aftercare tips

After the cure time, these simple habits help:

  • Keep water from gutters off the wall
  • Check external joints each spring
  • Keep movement joints as flexible joints, not mortar
  • Point out the joints to other trades

Have a quick look at the joints each spring. Watch for splits, edges coming away or growth in the joint.

If you can see gaps, plants or bare sections in a joint, have it checked. Early work is quicker and leaves a better finish.

When to call us in Curbridge

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.

Common reasons people contact us include:

  • Joints pointed up with cement by mistake
  • Panel joints letting water in
  • Failed seals between different materials
  • Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left

If you look after a building such as Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Primary School, its movement joints, gutters and trims need looking after like any other building’s.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether you can choose the colour
  • Whether all the old sealant comes out first
  • Are they insured?
  • What preparation is included

Choosing a sealant specialist

What we can’t put right

Sealant is not the answer to every problem, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not solve:

  • Walls that need new movement joints cut into them
  • Render that is blown, hollow or coming away
  • Cracking across the wall rather than at a joint

If in doubt, ring 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Joints and surfaces we work on

  • Brickwork movement joints
  • Joints between brick and frames
  • Concrete & block
  • Copings & trims
  • Render & cladding joints
  • Façade panels

Landlord and commercial work in Curbridge

A neglected joint can let water reach the structure, which matters even more when someone else lives there. Keeping joints in good order is simple maintenance that we can handle for you.

If you manage several properties in or around Curbridge, jobs at different addresses can go on one quote. Send us the addresses and the work at each, and pictures by email help.

What we do, step by step

Before we leave, we go over the finished joints with you and explain the cure time. The visit itself generally takes anything from a few hours to several days, depending on the building, depending on the amount of work. In a small place like Curbridge, access is normally the main thing to plan. If the job is outside, mention outbuildings, exposed walls and how to reach them.

  1. First, the joints are inspected and the access agreed.
  2. Every bit of old sealant and any mortar or debris is cut out.
  3. Joint faces are cleaned back and primed if the sealant needs it.
  4. We fit closed-cell backing rod to control the depth.
  5. The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.

Before we arrive

  • Keep children and pets away from the work area
  • Let us know about parking restrictions
  • For business premises, tell us about site rules or sign-in

Getting a quote

Getting a quote is simple: let us know the job and the location, and roughly how big it is. A few pictures by email make the job easier to understand.
