East Molesey External Mastic

How we handle external mastic in East Molesey
Low-level joints can usually be done from the ground. Where joints are higher up, tell us about the building when you get in touch and we will confirm what’s needed to reach them safely. We work on render & cladding joints, joints between brick and frames and concrete & block, and common reasons people get in touch are weeds or debris growing in open joints and weathered mastic that no longer stretches.
Homes around East Molesey range from older cottages to newer houses, with walls and rooflines of every type. Older gutters and trims need their joints resealed; newer brick and render need their movement joints kept sound.
Whatever the size of the job, it’s backed by our 12-month guarantee.

Landlords, agents and businesses in East Molesey
In hotels, rooms out of use cost money, so we plan the work room by room around your bookings where we can. Hotel work is part of what we do, alongside homes and businesses.
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.
Honest limits
Before you book, it’s worth knowing the limits:
- Walls that need new movement joints cut into them
- Loose or hollow render, which needs re-rendering
- Subsidence or other structural problems
If you’re not sure, just phone 0345 464 0079 or send us an email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.
What we seal
- Concrete & block
- Joints between brick and frames
- Façade panels
- Render & cladding joints
- Brickwork movement joints
- Copings & trims
External mastic in East Molesey: local notes
With historic houses such as Hampton Court Palace (about 0.7 miles east) nearby, there’s older building stock in the area around East Molesey 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. The South East is one of the drier parts of the UK, but outside sealant still needs a dry, clean surface, so outdoor work is planned around the forecast.
Managing a site like The Orchard Infant School? Then movement joints, cladding joints and gutters on larger buildings need the same care as a house’s. In the older streets around Church of St Mary, an extension built onto an older house moves differently, and the joint between them takes the strain.

How it works
The work is kept neat and contained to the joints we’re treating, so you can carry on as normal. Expect the work to take a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access, and we tell you how long to leave it before we go. A visit to East Molesey is planned like any other: the time, the access and where to park are agreed in advance. If the work is outside, the weather plays a part, as sealant needs a dry surface.
- First, the joints are inspected and the access agreed.
- Every bit of old sealant and any mortar or debris is cut out.
- The faces are brushed clean and primed where the product requires it.
- Backing rod sized to the joint goes in to set the depth.
- The exterior sealant is applied, tooled and checked along its length.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for the work area to be out of bounds to pets and children
- Tell us about access, such as stairs, a lift or high-level joints
- Let us know about earlier repairs to the joints

East Molesey: your questions answered
Can you do external mastic in East Molesey?
Yes. We work across London and the South East, and East Molesey is part of that. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or drop us an email with a few details of the job, and we will give you a clear price.
I let a flat near Hampton Court station. Can you help?
Yes. We work for landlords and letting agents as well as householders, and several properties can go on one quote. Just ring 0345 464 0079 or email us with the address and what needs doing, and we’ll give you a clear price.
Is there any odour?
That depends on the sealant. Some smell for a while, some hardly at all.
What do you put in the joint?
Each joint gets the product that suits it. Where it moves, gets wet or faces the weather makes a difference.
Can you work on commercial sites?
Yes. We’ve worked for hotels, offices and other businesses and we’re fully insured.
Can I add another job to the visit?
Yes. Tell us about everything you’d like done and we will quote it together.
Do you remove the old sealant?
Yes, always, and completely. New sealant won’t bond properly to old, so any old material comes out before anything new goes in.
Is it OK to fill a movement joint with cement?
No. Mortar locks the joint solid, so the movement cracks the wall elsewhere. Use a flexible sealant with backing rod.
What happens if it’s left?
Mortar or ordinary filler might look like a quick way to close an open joint, but it stops the joint moving. The wall then cracks somewhere else. The correct repair is a flexible sealant with the right backing. Homes in smaller places like East Molesey can face more weather, and failed outside joints let damp into walls. Indoors, a failed seal lets water into floors and panels as it would anywhere.
Homes and businesses are quoted the same way: the amount of work, how we reach it and what it needs. Call for a quick quote and we’ll explain what it covers.

What we’re called out for in East Molesey
A lot of failed joints come down to preparation: joint faces that were dusty or damp, unprimed where they needed it, or still carrying old sealant. The sealant never bonds properly.
These are the problems we’re asked about most:
- Movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant
- Panel joints letting water in
- Cracked joints where brick meets render or frames
- Moss and dirt in joints with no sealant left
For landlords with property near Hampton Court station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets.

Can I do it myself?
Overfilling a joint is a classic DIY mistake. A thick, smeared bead looks untidy and doesn’t move well, and the joint depth matters as much as the finish.
The difference is mostly in the preparation and the product. We take joints back to clean, dry surfaces, and the sealant is matched to the joint and its conditions, and the work is guaranteed for a year.
