External & façade joints in Easthall, Glasgow
Problem with your movement joints in Easthall? We remove the old material, prepare the joints and seal them properly, with a 12-month guarantee.
- Cracked joints where brick meets render or frames
- Failed sealant between panels on a façade
- Movement joints filled with mortar instead of sealant
What happens if it’s left?
An open joint keeps letting water into the wall with every downpour. In cold weather, frost can damage wet brick and render, so the damage spreads beyond the joint. Exposed walls in smaller Scottish places take a lot of wind and rain, and damp in stone or harled walls takes a long time to dry once water gets behind a joint.
Doing several joints on one visit is usually more efficient than separate visits. We’ll send you a clear quote for the lot.

External mastic in Easthall, done properly
We’re ARBOMaster approved applicators, and each external joint gets a sealant suited to it. Porous or awkward surfaces are primed where the sealant needs it. We work on brickwork movement joints, copings & trims and concrete & block, and the jobs we see most are hard, crazed mastic that has stopped moving and movement joints with cracked, split or missing sealant.
Older stone buildings need a sealant that suits the stone, not an acetoxy product that can mark or attack it. On newer homes, the movement joints and roofline trims are what need watching.
All of our work is guaranteed for twelve months, and the guarantee is the same wherever you are.

What sealant work cannot fix
New sealant can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. Sealant won’t put right:
- Movement that’s more than a sealant joint can take
- Cracks in the bricks or render themselves, away from the joints
- Damp from another source, such as a leaking gutter or a bridged damp-proof course
If you are not sure, just email us at info@mrmastic.co.uk and we will give you a straight answer.

What else we do in Easthall
DIY versus a professional finish
Sealing over old silicone is the commonest DIY error. Silicone does not stick to old silicone, so it peels away and traps moisture behind it. Everything old must be removed first.
Some jobs are best left to a professional: work at height, external movement joints, fire-rated sealant and large areas call for the right materials, safe access and experience.
Keeping the joints in good condition
Joint life depends on how it’s used and looked after. We suggest:
- Point out the joints to other trades
- Never let anyone fill a movement joint with mortar
- Don’t let climbing plants root in the sealant
- Wash walls gently around the sealant
Give the sealant the cure time we tell you before anything rubs against it. The surface skins over quickly, but full cure takes longer.
If you can see gaps, plants or bare sections in a joint, have it checked. Earlier resealing means a smaller job and a better result.
The process
At the end, we look at the finished work together and tell you how long to leave it. The work normally takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access, depending on the size of the job. Around Easthall, distance and access matter more than parking. Let us know how to find you and how to reach the joints, and the visit is planned around that.
- We start by walking round the building and agreeing the joints and the access.
- We cut out the old mastic and rake out anything in the joint.
- Joint faces are cleaned back and primed if the sealant needs it.
- Backing rod sized to the joint goes in to set the depth.
- We apply the sealant, tool it and check the whole run.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any tricky access
- Try not to wet indoor joints just before the visit
- Mention any parking rules near the property

Advice
Easthall questions
Is Easthall within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. We work across all of Scotland. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you cover Easthall for external mastic?
Yes, Easthall is within the area we cover. We work across all of Scotland. Just drop us a line at info@mrmastic.co.uk with a few details of the job.
Can new sealant go over the old?
No. New silicone will not bond to old silicone, and anything trapped underneath, including mould and water, stays there. It all has to come out first.
Can you do several jobs on one visit?
Yes, we can. Several rooms, windows or areas can go on one quote.
How long does external mastic last?
It varies with how exposed the wall is and how much the joint moves. Look for splits, hardening or edges coming away, and reseal at that point.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Mr Mastic is fully insured, with over 20 years’ experience in sealant work.
Do you seal joints where cladding meets other materials?
Yes. Where different materials meet is one of the most common joints we seal. The sealant is chosen to bond to both sides.
How long does the job take?
A typical job takes a few hours to a few days, depending on the length of joint and the access, including the preparation. We’ll confirm how long when we quote.
Common problems we fix in Easthall
Joints sealed without backing rod, or far too deep, rarely last. Sealant bonded to three sides has nowhere to go and tears as soon as the joint widens.
Common reasons people contact us are:
- Gaps where render, brick and frames meet
- Rain getting behind render or cladding at a joint
- Brick movement joints where the sealant has split
- Weathered mastic that no longer stretches
If you live in an older home near Saint Benedict's Church, old and new materials meet at the roofline and walls, which is where sealant earns its keep.

What external mastic looks like in Easthall
Easthall is in the west of Scotland, which is wetter than the east, so there’s plenty of rain for movement joints and outside wall joints to keep out. Glasgow’s tenements are largely red and blond sandstone, and porous sandstone needs a sealant that will not mark it.
If you let a flat or house near Garrowhill station, outside joints that have cracked can let damp into a rental, so check them between lets. Schools such as St. Leonard's Secondary School are buildings too, and larger buildings have long runs of movement joint that eventually need resealing.
